Figure 5 The CAWS-induced murine model of KD with reduced F4/80+ macrophages, CD11b+ monocytes and increased Ly-6G+ neutrophils in cardiac tissues. (A–C) Cardiac tissues were stained by (A) F4/80+ macrophages, (B) CD11b+ monocytes, and (C) Ly-6G+ neutrophils at 4 weeks after rhG-CSF administration in CAWS-induced mice. Bar=20 μm. * p<0.05; ** p<0.01; *** p<0.001; and **** p<0.0001. GraphPad Prism software (version 8.0.1; Graph Pad; San Diego, CA, USA) and Olympus software (version 2.2; Olympus, Japan) were used to create the pictures.
