Figure 4

Cell proliferation and blood vessel density in ovaries from CD36−/− and WT mice. A. Immunohistochemistry for Ki67 showed that pre-antral and antral follicles from CD36−/− mice had a significant (p < 0.05) increase in the percentage of proliferating granulosa cells than WT controls. B. CD36−/− ovaries had a significantly (p < 0.05) higher blood vessel density than WT ovaries. Tissue sections are shown at 200× magnification; insets are at 600× magnification.
