A-D Representative photomicrographs of laminin immunofluorescence staining in the sCWM. E–G. Data are mean ± SEM for (E) average % of each field of view displaying positive laminin staining, (F) average number of blood vessels identified per field of view, and (G), average size of each blood vessel staining positively for laminin (μm2) as calculated in the Cx, PVWM, sCWM, and SVZ from AGA (Black; n = 7), FGR (Grey; n = 5), AGA + ECFC (Black patterned; n = 6), and FGR + ECFC (Grey patterned; n = 6). Data were examined using a two-step analysis, with AGA and FGR compared first via unpaired t test, then all groups compared using two-way ANOVA with FGR and ECFC treatment as variables. Two-way ANOVA results for main effects (PECFC, PFGR) and interaction (PINT) for each brain region are presented below the relevant graph (NS = P > 0.05)
