Figure 1. A) Representative lectin staining of capillaries in non-ischemic (NI) and ischemic (I) muscles of lower limbs of wild-type, Plgf–/–, eNOS–/–, and Plgf–/– eNos–/– mice. Scale bar represents 40 µm (x20 magnification). B) Capillary density in wild-type (n=10), Plgf–/– (n=12), eNos–/– (n=11), Plgf–/– eNos–/– (n=10) mice. Values are mean ± SEM and are expressed as ratio between capillary density in ischemic and non-ischemic muscles. ##P < 0.01 vs. wild-type and Plgf–/– mice.
