Extended Data Fig. 1: Heart growth during postnatal development.
From: Cardiac lymphatics retain LYVE-1-dependent macrophages during neonatal mouse heart regeneration
Hearts were harvested to quantify the length and width size across the ventral surface at different postnatal stages (A). The heart was found to grow from base to apex in proportion to increasing width and area (B-D). Four weeks after birth, the area of the heart had increased four-fold on the ventral side. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. n = 5 for P1; n = 3 for P3, P5, P9; n = 4 for P8, P11, P16, P21, P28; n = 10 for P14. Significant differences were calculated using 1-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. Scale bar: 1 mm.
