Figure 3From: Expression of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor (HIF)-1a-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)-Inhibitory Growth Factor (ING)-4- axis in sarcoidosis patientsVEGF immunohistochemical staining in sarcoidosis lung samples. Representative immunohistochemically stained tissue microarray section with monoclonal antibody against VEGF demonstrates diffuse cytoplasmic stain of moderately strong intensity in epithelioid cells within granulomas (arrows) derived from sarcoidosis patients (n=37) compared to control lung samples (n=24). Scale bars in panel A: 100μm, B and C: 25 μm and D, E: 10 μm. Immunohistochemical findings were confirmed by computerized image analysis (F).Back to article page
