[Retracted] Expression and Possible Significance of ACE2 in the Human Liver, Esophagus, Stomach, and Colon

Figure 1

(a)–(c) Expression and localization of ACE2 in human liver tissues. (d)–(f) Expression and localization of ACE2 in human esophageal mucosal tissues. (g)–(i) Expression and localization of ACE2 in human gastric mucosal tissues. (j)–(l) Expression and localization of ACE2 in human colonic mucosal tissues. Dewaxed liver tissue sections are treated with rabbit anti-ACE2 antibody for immunohistochemistry. ACE2 expression was analyzed in human liver tissues ((a)–(c)), human esophageal mucosal tissue ((d)–(f)), human gastric mucosal tissues ((g)–(i)), and human colonic mucosal tissues((j)–(l)). Boxed regions in the left of ((a)–(l)) are shown at higher magnification in the right panel (400×).
