HE and TUNEL staining at 2 weeks after LCA occlusion and reperfusion. HE (a, b) and TUNEL (c, d) staining in the AAR in rats with (a, c) and without 99mTc-annexin-V uptake (b, d) is presented. a and c as well as b and d are serial sections. Granulation tissue with inflammatory cells and fibrosis are seen widespread (between black arrowheads) (a, b). TUNEL-positive (black arrow) cells are detected in cardiomyocytes in rats with positive 99mTc-annexin-V uptake (c). In rats with negative 99mTc-annexin-V uptake, TUNEL-positive cells were rarely detected (d)
