Figure 2: Overexpression of decorin increased angiogenesis in the diabetic hearts.

From: Overexpression of decorin promoted angiogenesis in diabetic cardiomyopathy via IGF1R-AKT-VEGF signaling

Figure 2

(A–C) The expression of decorin and VEGF. (D) The VEGF concentration in the plasma. (E) The capillary density using immunochemistry with a CD31 antibody. The photographs were taken at a magnification of 100× and zoomed at a magnification of 200×. The arrows show the capillary stained with the CD31 antibody. (F) The number of vessels counted from the immunochemistry staining. All data are presented as the mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
