Heimark, PhDb  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 33, Issue 3, Pages (March 2001) DOI: /mva Copyright © 2001 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Photograph showing the epigastric interposition vein graft in the femoral artery of the Lewis rat vein graft model. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /mva ) Copyright © 2001 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions

3 Fig. 2 Scanning electron photomicrograph illustrating the surface characteristics of the rat epigastric vein A, before implantation and B, 1 day after implantation in the arterial circulation. Note the significant endothelial denudation and platelet deposition (white arrow ; magnification, 4000×). Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /mva ) Copyright © 2001 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions

4 Fig. 3 Morphologic assessment of arterialized vein graft in the Lewis rat model by means of Masson trichrome stain. A, Normal epigastric vein before implantation (original magnification, 31×). Insert shows a segment of the vein wall at higher magnification (80×). B, Arterialized vein graft at 2 days postimplantation. Note significant smooth muscle loss in tunica media (original magnification, 31×). C, Arterialized vein graft at 7 days after implantation. Note presence of layered nonocclusive recanalized thrombus. There is abundant microvasculature throughout the vein graft wall (original magnification, 31×). Insert shows microvessels in a segment of the graft wall (magnification, 40×). D, Arterialized vein graft at 70 days. There is a developed neointima, and the tunica media has well regenerated. The internal elastic lamina is well delineated (arrowhead ). The arrow indicates external elastic lamina (original magnification, 80×). L , Lumen; T, thrombus; i, intima; m, media; a, adventitia; mv, microvessels.

5 Fig. 4 Transmission electron micrograph illustrating typical features of apoptosis in a rat vein graft specimen harvested 2 days after implantation. A, At an earlier stage, there is chromatin condensation, cell shrinkage, and vacuolization of the cytoplasm. B, At a later stage, apoptotic bodies have been engulfed by a neighboring cell (magnification, 5400×). Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /mva ) Copyright © 2001 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions

6 Fig. 5 Immunolabeling for the proliferating cell nuclear antigen. Arrows indicate replicating nuclei appearing as dark black (original magnification, 80×). L, Lumen; PCNA , proliferating cell nuclear antigen. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /mva ) Copyright © 2001 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions

7 Fig. 6 Detection of apoptosis. Arterialized vein graft at 7 days after implantation showing apoptosis by means of the TUNEL method. Arrows indicate TUNEL-positive nuclei appearing as dark brown (original magnification, 80×). L, Lumen; TUNEL , transferasemediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling.

8 Fig. 7 Profiles of PCNA and TUNEL indices represented graphically in a 30-day period. Results are expressed as mean ± SD. PCNA and TUNEL labeling indices (%) are represented on the y axis, and time is indicated on the x axis. *Statistical differences (P <.006) compared with controls. PCNA, Proliferating cell nuclear antigen; TUNEL, transferase-medicated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /mva ) Copyright © 2001 Mosby, Inc. Terms and Conditions

9 Fig. 8 RT-PCR analysis of VEGF and TGFβ1 transcripts in rat vein graft specimens at different time points after arterialization. There is upregulation of both VEGF and TGFβ1 mRNA at 1 day. No expression is detected in the control vein. GAPDH primers are used for reference. VEGF, Vascular endothelial growth factor; TGF β1 ; transforming growth factor beta-1.
