Figure 5. Intramyocardial injection of CM post-MI promotes neovascularization of the ischemic myocardium.

Figure 5

Myocardial sections were immunostained to identify capillaries and arterioles. vWF+ vessels were counted (A). Proliferating vWF+ vessels were identified by co-expression of the proliferating cell nuclear antigen Ki67 (arrow heads) (B). Arterioles were immunostained with αSMA (C). Serial sections were double-stained for αSMA and Ki67 (arrow heads) (D). Data is presented at mean±sem. N=10–12/group. *P<0.05.
