Role of Cox-2 in Vascular Inflammation: An Experimental Model of Metabolic Syndrome
Figure 3
Representative figure showing the expression of MMP-2 (blue: Cy5) and MMP-9 (red: TRICT) merge mode in mesenteric arteries. You can see an increased level of tagging in adventitia for MMP-2 and MMP-9 on experimental models with vascular remodeling: SHR, FFR, and FFHR. These changes are reversed after administration of L. Microphotographs obtained by laser ICM 600x of mesenteric tissue.
