Confocal microscopy images of the longitudinal ileum section including the anastomosis in a MOS-treated YFP mouse 2 weeks after NSC transplant. a PKH26 (+) aggregates were found only in the granulation tissue at the anastomosis and not found outside the granulation tissue. b Hematoxylin-eosin staining. c Anti-PGP9.5 antibody immunostaining. Left side Oral side of the gut. c-1 Enlarged figures correspond to a square 1 in (c) in the granulation tissue. DAB products indicate PGP9.5 (+) ganglionic cells. PKH26 (+) cells were included in PGP9.5 (+) ganglia but YFP (+) cells were not included
