Semiquantitative evaluation of vascular growth factors and their receptors after in situ hybridization in control (A) and hyperglycemic embryos (B) after grafting of either HEK or HEK-VEGF cells. In situ hybridization slides were blindly assessed for both density and intensity of cells expressing the vascular growth factors or receptors. Results are expressed as score and values are mean ± SEM. The number of embryos was four in HEK-CT, five to seven in HEK-GLU, five in HEK-VEGF-CT, and seven in HEK-VEGF-GLU. *P < 0.05. CT: control (water-injected), GLU: glucose-injected animals. There are no significant differences on gene expression between CT and GLU after grafting with the same cell type (HEK or HEK-VEGF)
