Figure 1
Figure 1 Three days after the induction of gastric ulcers, Tie-2 expression in the endothelial cells of new capillaries was en-hanced in the rhIL-11-treated rats (A) in comparison to the untreated control animals (B).
Figure 2
Figure 2 Western blots demonstrating Tie-2 expression. RhIL-11 treatment increased Tie-2 expression significantly 3 and 5 d after the induction of gastric ulcers compared with un-treated control rats.

Figure 3 RT-PCR analysis of Tie-2 mRNA expression in ulcer-ative gastric tissues, using the specific primer pairs predicted to amplify Tie-2 (317 bp) and β-actin (313 bp). Lanes 1-4: rhIL-11-treated rats on days 3 (lane 2) and 5 (lane 4) and the untreated control rats on day 3 (lane 1) and 5 (lane 3).
