Histological and immunohistochemical analysis of LG and LP. H&E staining shows higher content of microvessels in LG (a) compared to LP (b). The immunohistochemistry shows an intense staining (black arrows) for the endothelial marker CD31 (c and d) and mural cell marker SMA (e and f). Staining with NG2 (g and h) was associated to microvessels and showed the presence of pericytes, that were more abundant in LG compared to LP (black arrows). Staining for CD146 (i and j), a marker present on both pericytes and endothelial cells, was more diffuse and intense in LP, while in LG was more associated to microvessels (black arrows). VEGF staining was present in the connective of both LG (k) and LP (l); LG showed less connective matrix than LP (Magnification 20x)
