Fig. 8From: Fluid upstream shear stress of rabbit aortic stenosis inhibits neointimal hyperplasia by promoting endothelization after balloon injuryEffects of vascular stenosis and balloon injury on re-endothelialization in the downstream of the constricted abdominal aorta in each group (200×). Immunohistochemical staining for CD31 was performed and the ratio of re-endothelialization was evaluated. Typical observations of endothelial cells stained by anti-CD31 antibodies in the upper panel and the re-endothelialization ratio quantified in the lower panel. **P < 0.05 significantly different from the groupIIID; **P < 0.05 significantly different from the groupIVD.D = downstreamBack to article page
