Fig. 6 Biliary epithelial cells (BECs) and endothelial cells (ECs) recover upon cryoinjury. (A-F″) Whole-mount imaging of GreenLantern+ hepatocytes and Anxa4+ biliary epithelial cells from sham-operated (A-A″) or injured (B-F″) livers at the indicated stages. The outlined areas are shown at higher magnification. (G) Mean intensity profile of Anxa4 within the IA at the designated stages is represented by individual lines for each sample, with the IA delineated in grey (n=4 throughout). (H-M″) Whole-mount acquisitions of GFP+ ECs from sham-operated (H-H″) or injured (I-M″) livers at the indicated stages. The outlined areas are shown at higher magnification. (N) Mean intensity profile of fli1a:nGFP within the IA at the designated stages is represented by individual lines for each sample, with the IA delineated in grey (n=4 throughout). Dashed yellow line indicates the border zone of the injured area; IA, injured area. Scale bars: 500 µm.
