Detection of the changes of VE-cadherin in the LPS injured lung after the MSC or MSC-ShVEGF injection using immunofluorescence. The intercellular junction in the LPS injured lung was evaluated by detection of the expression of adherens junction protein VE-cadherin using immunofluorescence 24 hours after the MSC or MSC-ShVEGF treatment (×200; blue, DAPI; green, VE-cadherin).
