Cross sectional image of the heart 2 weeks after AMI (Red fluorescence represents PECAM for blood vessels, and green fluorescence represents LYVE-1 for lymphatic vessels). (A) Lymphatic vessels were rarely seen in the noninfarct area. (B) Lymphatic vessels were rarely seen in the infarct area. However, lower panels demonstrate newly formed lymphatic vessels in the peri-infarction area (arrow, C, D). Bars, 100 µm.
