Large differences
in staining for these cell markers were not observed
in heterochronic young mice compared with
isochronic young mice.
The volume of blood vessels
in Het - O mice is comparative to that of heterochronic young (Het - Y) and
isochronic young (Iso - Y) mice; and is significantly higher than Iso - O control mice.
Therefore, immunostaining of this molecule was used to visualize vasculature
in heterochronic old (Het - O) and
isochronic old (Iso - O) mice.
