Capillary density in gastrocnemius muscles assessed by CD31 staining. (A) Representative microphotographs of CD31-positive capillaries. a, Sham mice; b, 5/6Nx mice; c, 5/6Nx mice treated with control-aptamer; d, 5/6Nx mice treated with AGE-aptamer. (B) Quantitative data of capillary density. n = 5–9 per each group. ††p < 0.01 compared with sham mice. ‡‡p < 0.01 compared with 5/6Nx mice plus control-aptamer.
