TEM image of a tube-like structure formed by CD11b+ PECs. (A and B) Three-dimensional visualization of CD11b+ macrophage tube formation (described in Figure 6) at day 7 of Matrigel assay. Panel B shows a higher magnification of the region in A indicated by the arrow. (CG) Tube-like structure in Matrigel assay. (C) Lumen (Lu) formed by CD11b+ macrophages. Panels D, F, and G show higher magnification views of the regions in C indicated by the large arrow, small arrow, and arrowhead, respectively. Panel E shows a higher magnification view of the region in D indicated by the arrow. Magnifications are as indicated in each panel.
