Figure Legend Snippet: Detection of fluorescently labeled dextran leaking from cardiac capillaries A. Three fractionations by fluorescence intensity: background (BG), extra-capillary (BG-BG x a), intra-capillary (>BG x a). B. Methods for calculating background. FITC-conjugated GSL-IB4 was injected into the tail vein 5 min after PBS injection, and another 5 min later, mice were sacrificed, the cardiac tissue was removed, and promptly frozen with isopentane onto dry ice. Frozen tissue sections were cut transversely at 10 μm using the cryostat, and the sections were mounted onto slides. The slides were dried thoroughly and observed under a fluorescence microscope. Twenty 150 μm × 150 μm per 1 section were cut out from the left ventricular wall, where capillaries were observed parallel to the myocardial layer, using LAS X software (Leica), and saved as TIFF (922 x 922 pixels; 22461.544 μm 2 /1 area). Twenty areas per section, three sections per mouse, and three (young) or two (aged) female mice were analyzed, resulting in a total of 180 or 120 images ( see Materials and Methods section for details ). Scale bar: 1 mm. C. Methods for calculating the amount of fluorescently labeled dextran leaked from capillaries. FITC-conjugated GSL-IB4 was injected into the tail vein 5 min after TD 40 injection, and another 5 min later, mice were sacrificed, the cardiac tissue was removed, and promptly frozen with isopentane onto dry ice. Frozen tissue cut sections were prepared in the same manner as above. Fluorescence images of dextran and GSL-IB4 are imported into ImageJ separately, converted to grayscale, and binarized by setting the threshold value for each. The ratio of fluorescence-detected areas to total area was calculated from the acquired fluorescent images. Three sections per mouse, with three mice per month, were analyzed for a total of 180 images. Scale bar: 50 μm.
