Figure Lengend Snippet: Histological analysis of tracheal graft specimens from experimental animals surviving for more than 6 months. (A–D) H&E staining. (E–H) MT staining. (I–L) Immunofluorescence staining for αSMA. (M − P) Immunofluorescence for CK-18. The area marked with an asterisk (∗) corresponds to the location of PCL. Quantitative analysis of immunofluorescence staining (Q) α-SMA-positive microvessels and (R) CK18-positive epithelial coverage were quantified in three randomly selected high-power fields per graft section. A,C,E,G Scale bars = 500 μm; B,D,F,H Scale bars = 50 μm; I,K,M,O Scale bars = 400 μm; J,L,N,P Scale bars = 100 μm. n: not significant.
Article Snippet: Cells were incubated overnight at 4 °C with Rabbit Anti-CK18 antibody (1:200, bs-2043R, Bioss, China) and Rabbit Anti-CK5 antibody (1:200, bs-1060R, Bioss, China).
Techniques: Staining, Immunofluorescence
