CSE expression in activated myofibroblasts in a cellular area of a complicated sclerotic plaque. (a) SMA+ myofibroblasts (VIP, violet) partially coexpress CSE (DAB, brown staining) in their cytoplasm. Additional CSE labeling can be observed in tissue macrophages (brown only) (×400 magnification). (b) A single enlarged SMA+ fibroblast-type cell with cytoplasmic brown CSE-related colabeling (×1000 magnification).
