Fig. 2

Cellular localization of TGF-β mRNA expression in adipose tissue from lean (+/?) and obese (ob/ob) mice.

Representative sections showing the cellular localization of TGF-β mRNA. In situ hybridization was performed on sections of paraffin embedded adipose tissues from lean (A, ×400) and obese (B, ×400 C, D, ×1000) mice. a, adipocyte; rbc, red blood cell. Arrows indicate positive hybridization signal in adipocytes (B and D) and capillary cells (C). Slides for in situ hybridization were exposed for 8 weeks at 4°C and stained with hematoxylin and eosin.
