Article Snippet: Immunohistochemical staining was performed using paraffin-embedded sections with antibodies against factor VIII-related antigen (1:100, ab236284, Abcam), stromal cell-derived factor-1-alpha (SDF1-α) (1:100, ab25117, Abcam, Cambridge, United Kingdom), Interleukin-1-beta (IL-1-β) (1:100, ab2105, Abcam), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) (1:50, ab1793, Abcam), transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) (1:100, ab66043, Abcam), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (1:200, ab1316, Abcam).
