Immunohistochemical staining for α-SMA proteins.

(A) Representative anti-α-SMA antibody-stained arterial cross-sections from different treatment groups in a rabbit model of iliac artery restenosis. Scale bar, 50 μm. (B,C) Quantitative analysis of α-SMA-positive cells and the immunohistochemical score (HIS) from the different treatment groups. Representative zoomed-in H&E-stained arterial cross-sections from PLM + US group (D) and control group (E) highlight the significant reduction of intimal hyperplasia and irregularly shaped cells (red arrows). Scale bar: 100 μm.
