Figure Lengend Snippet: Immunofluorescence and western blotting results showing the expression of relevant cytokines in the CIBT of 2VO + EMS rats. A Representative triple immunofluorescence staining images showing ANGPT2 + , Tie2 + , and CD11b + cells in the CIBT in each group (white arrows indicate TEMs). Bar = 50 µm. B Counts of ANGPT2 + cells in each group (n = 3, one-way ANOVA and Šídák's multiple comparisons test). C Counts of TEMs (Tie2 + and CD11b + ) in each group (n = 9, one-way ANOVA and Šídák's multiple comparisons test). D Representative western blot showing the relative expression of TRPS1, ANGPT2, Tie2, CD11b, VEGFA, IGF1, and CD31 in the CIBT adjacent to the TM tissue in each group (normalized to β-actin expression). E Densitometric analyses of the relative expression of TRPS1, ANGPT2, Tie2, CD11b, VEGFA, IGF1, and CD31 (n = 3, one-way ANOVA and Šídák's multiple comparisons test; * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001). The error bars represent the ± SDs. CIBT: chronically ischaemic brain tissue; EMS: encephalomyosynangiosis; TEMs: Tie2-expressing monocytes/macrophages; 2VO: 2-vessel occlusion

Article Snippet: After being washed with PBST, the slices were incubated with 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit (1:2000, ab150077, Abcam, UK), 594-conjugated goat anti-mouse (1:2000, ab150116, Abcam, UK), and 647-conjugated donkey anti-goat (1:2000, ab150135, Abcam, UK) secondary antibodies at room temperature in a dark room for 2 h. The 647-conjugated CD11b antibody (0.5 μg, CL647-65229, proteintech, China) was used to directly label CD11b.

A Representative triple immunofluorescence staining images showing Tie2 + , CD11b + , and VEGFA + cells and in the CIBT in each group (white arrows indicate TEMs). Bar = 50 µm. B Counts of VEGF + cells in each group (n = 3, one-way ANOVA and Šídák's multiple comparisons test). C Representative triple immunofluorescence staining images showing Tie2 + , CD11b + , and IGF1 + cells in the CIBT in each group (white arrows indicate TEMs). Bar = 50 µm.
