Figure 4

Expression of caveolin-1 in saphenous arteries. Whole mount preparations (A, B, C) and longitudinal sections (D, E, F) through the vessel wall show increased expression of caveolin-1 in both endothelial cells (EC: A-C) and in smooth muscle cells (SMC: D-F) of saphenous arteries taken from SHR (B, E) and ACTH (C, F), compared to WKY (A, D). Arrows indicate staining delineating the membranes of smooth muscle cells (D-F). Preincubation of the antibody with the immunogen eliminated staining in both endothelium and smooth muscle (G). Calibration bars represent 25 μm.
