Immunohistochemical staining for α-SMA in harvested tumor tissues. The results showed that there were fewer α-SMA-positive cells around endothelial cells in the Ang-2-transfected groups (c,d,e) than in non- Ang-2-transfected groups (a,b,f). In addition, this staining showed vessels in c,d,e displayed an aberrant structure characterized by distorted and dilated lumina (vessel indicated by arrow). a: mock, b: control plasmid, c: Ang-2 plasmid, d: Ang-2 + scrambled miRNA, e: Ang-2 + VEGF miRNA, f: VEGF miRNA, g: negative control. Original magnifications: 400× for a,b,c,d,e,f,g.
