From: A theoretical timeline for myocardial infarction: immunohistochemical evaluation and western blot quantification for Interleukin-15 and Monocyte chemotactic protein-1 as very early markers

Figure 2

Time course of cytokine and extracellular matrix protein up-regulation in myocardial infarcts at 4hs. (A) Troponin I is markedly unexpressed in a large area of infarcted myocardium (Ab-anti TnI). (B) The confocal microscopic observation of early (4hs) myocardial infarction showed a large area of TnC depletion (in green the TnC reaction). (C) Double immunohistochemical reaction (IL-15 and CD15) evidenced an intense IL-15 (bleu) and sporadic CD15 (white) reactions in the infarcted zone. (D) Double immunohistochemical reaction (MCP-1 and CD15): MCP-1 reaction (red) is intense as well as CD15 (yellow) in the infarcted zone after 4 hrs.
