Double immunofluorescence stainings using combinations of monoclonal antibodies specific for activated pericytes in vivo (high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen (HMW-MAA)), P-4-H, smooth muscle alpha-actin (SMA), endothelial cells (PAL-E), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) beta-receptor, and the integrin alpha 5 subunit were performed.
