Fig. 2. Electron microscopic analysis of the microvasculature of Syk-deficient mice. / Compared with panel A (wild-type [wt]), panel B shows remarkable morphologic abnormality and decreased numbers of ECs in Syk-deficient mice (Syk−). Arrowheads highlight the scanty cytoplasm. Compared with panel C (wt), panel D shows EC shrinkage (arrowheads) and bleeding in Syk-deficient mice. The sections in panels A and C and in B and D are different sites. (F) A higher magnification image of the hemorrhagic area in panel E, which shows an erythrocyte leaking out from the vessel wall. (G,H) Tight junction structure between vascular ECs in wild-type and Syk-deficient mice, respectively (arrowheads). Bars = 2.5 μm (A-F) and 0.5 μm (G,H).
