Extended Data Fig. 7. Immunostaining for full-length MFG-E8 shows cellular staining of vascular cells and astrocytes.

Extended Data Fig. 7

a, Brain sections of two sporadic AD patients were stained with a monoclonal antibody raised against human full-length MFG-E8. b, Exemplary image of co-staining for human full-length MFG-E8 (green), and human medin (1H4, red) showing limited overlap between full-length MFG-E8 and medin in a cerebral blood vessel (stained with smooth muscle actin; tissue sections are from Patient 4). c, Staining for full-length MFG-E8 (green) in human AD brain sections also labels cells around amyloid plaques (anti-Aβ, red), which are identified as astrocytes by co-staining for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). Scale bars: 50 µm in a, 20 µm in b, 50 µm in c.
