The Alteration of the Epidermal Basement Membrane Complex of Human Nevus Tissue and Keratinocyte Attachment after High Hydrostatic Pressurization

Figure 8

Micrographs of immunohistochemical staining of type VII collagen in the nevus specimens after 6 days of culturing. The closed arrowheads indicate the stained type VII collagen. The anchoring fibrils were clearly stained in the control and the 200 MPa groups and were weakly and locally stained in the 500 MPa group but were not stained in the 1000 MPa group. Scale bar = 50 μm.
