Microcomputed tomography angiography analysis of hindlimb ischemia recovery. (A) Three-dimensional reconstructions of distal hindlimb vasculature in wild-type (WT) (left) and MKP-1 knockout (KO) (right) mice at day 7 post-surgery. Reproduced with permission from the American Heart Association [71]. (B) Quantification of vascular volume ratio (ischemic/contralateral control), illustrating the biphasic nature of angiogenic and arteriogenic vascular recovery. Initial conditions (T0) taken from comparable WT C57Bl6 mice in [75], with continuity indicated by gray lines. Horizontal line illustrates ischemic/control ratio of 1.
