Expression of CD3 and CD31 in stable and vulnerable coronary atherosclerotic plaques.

<p>(A) Representative histological and immunohistochemical images of a fibrous cap atheroma (stable lesions). In the high-magnification images (square), the stable plaque shows a mild infiltrate of CD3-immunopositive cells and few CD31-immunopositive microvessels around the necrotic core (arro...

Description
Summary:<p>(A) Representative histological and immunohistochemical images of a fibrous cap atheroma (stable lesions). In the high-magnification images (square), the stable plaque shows a mild infiltrate of CD3-immunopositive cells and few CD31-immunopositive microvessels around the necrotic core (arrow). (B) Representative histological and immunohistochemical images of a thin-cap fibroatheroma (vulnerable lesions). In the high-magnification images (square), the vulnerable plaque shows increased CD3-immunopositive cells and CD31-immunopositive microvessels at the shoulder lesion (arrows).</p> <p>(TIF)</p>
