Three-Dimensional Imaging of Pulmonary Fibrotic Foci at the Alveolar Scale Using Tissue-Clearing Treatment with Staining Techniques of Extracellular Matrix
Figure 7
Quantitative analysis of fluorescence-labeled fibrotic foci in the lungs using Col-F after ClearT2 tissue-clearing treatment. (a) Hydroxyproline content in fibrotic mouse lungs. (b) Blue coloration indicating extracellular matrix localization on the lung tissue section. (c) Fluorescent intensities derived from single-plane images of Col-F at the indicated depth (μm) from the lung surface. Each point represents the (). .
