Fig. 3From: Single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography imaging of RAGE in smoking-induced lung injuryIncreased RAGE staining by immunohistochemistry in the 4-week smoke-exposed rabbit lung. a Increased RAGE staining (brown colour) in the alveolar epithelium and inflammatory cells of 4-week smoke-exposed rabbits. There is low uptake in the 16-week smoke-exposure lung tissue as well as in the room air control rabbits. b IHC quantification, represented as % brown staining per high powered microscopic field shows statistically significant correlation between RAGE staining and RAGE radiotracer uptake per gram of tissue.
