N Ushijima, K Inoue, T Domon, S Yoshida - Archives of oral biology, 2008 - Elsevier
OBJECTIVE: This study introduced the usefulness of LYVE-1 immunoreactivity for
identification of lymphatic vessels in decalcified tissues, and demonstrated the fine
distribution and organization of these vessels in mouse gingiva. DESIGN: After confirming
the specificity of anti-mouse LYVE-1, frozen sections of mouse decalcified gingiva were
immunostained with the antibody. RESULTS: The LYVE-1-positive lymphatic vessels were
clearly found in the connective tissue under the gingival epithelium; these vessels appeared …
