Figure 7

Cross section of mouse medial gastrocnemius stained for capillaries ( black ). (A) Area outlined is the small region injected with Cre Recombinase, which cleaves any LoxP sequences present on the VEGF gene. This was a control mouse without LoxP sequences, and capillarity is unaffected. Adapted from [19]. (B) Area outlined is the small region injected with Cre Recombinase. This was a VEGF-LoxP transgenic mouse, and capillarity is clearly diminished in the transfected region. Adapted from [19].
