The inset shows the nuclei analyzed by Q-FISH. B) EC interphase nuclei hybridized with Cy3-PNA telomeric probe (red signals). C) Aortic aneurysmatic wall derived VSMC stained with anti-α-smooth muscle actin mAb (green). D) VSMC nuclei hybridized with Cy3-PNA telomeric probe (red signals). DAPI was used to label nuclei.
