Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Representative confocal image of a sagittal cryosection (14 µM) of a S1RP1-GS mouse aorta immunostained for VEC and lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronic acid receptor 1 (LYVE1) (N = 2). White arrows indicate GFP+ arterial ECs at a branch point orifices and yellow arrows indicate adventitia-associated GFP+ LECs. Scale bar is 50 µM. ( B ) Confocal image of a S1RP1-GS mouse thoracic aorta whole-mount preparation immunostained for vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3 (VEGFR3; Flt4 ), LYVE1, and CLDN5 with the tunica intima in contact with coverslip. Orange stars indicate VEGFR3+LYVE1+GFP+ areas, cyan stars indicate VEGFR3+LYVE1 low GFP+ areas, and magenta stars indicate VEGFR3+LYVE1+GFP- areas. Image is representative of observations from three mice (see also ). Scale bar is 100 µM. ( C–D ) Representative confocal images of mesenteric lymphatics from H2B-GFP control ( C ) and S1PR1-GS mice bearing Sphk2 -/- : Sphk1 f/f (Cre-) or Sphk2 -/- : Sphk1 f/f : Lyve1-Cre (Lyve1-Cre+) alleles whole-mounted and immunostained for PROX1 and ASMA. White arrows indicate ASMA+PROX1+GFP+, yellow arrows indicate PROX1+GFP-, cyan arrows indicate ASMA+PROX1+GFP-. Scale bars are 100 µM. ( E ) Quantification of GFP+ signal over ASMA+PROX1+ and ASMA-PROX1+ areas from Cre- (n = 5), Lyve1-Cre (n = 4), and H2B-GFP control (n = 2) mice. One-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post hoc test, **** P < 0.0001.
