Profilin-1 Is Expressed in Human Atherosclerotic Plaques and Induces Atherogenic Effects on Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells (original) (raw)
Figure 2
Low expression of profilin in normal coronary vessel.
Analysis of consecutive sections from a representative coronary artery without evident coronary artery disease. Upper panel: EvG and Masson's trichrome staining at 40×, inset was magnified at 100×. Middle and lower panels: Immunofluorescence staining for profilin (red), α-smooth muscle actin (SMA, green), and von Willebrand Factor (vWF, green). DAPI-staining (blue) was performed to visualize nuclei.
