Localisation of EC and EPC in subcutanous matrigel. Confocal fluorescence microscopic examination of a subcutanously administered Matrigel, an extracellular mouse sarcoma matrix (Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm tumor) known to be in vivo a pro-angiogenic stimulus, that had been administered to the rats with EPC injection one week before transplantation subcutanously. Matrigel showed invasion of cells building up capillary like structures. EPC are positive for SP-DiIC18(3) and DAPI. Figure A,B; blue: DAPI, red: SP-DiIC18(3)-labeled EPC).
