Transmission electron microscope image of a mouse pancreas capillary vessel after cecum ligation and puncture. The figure was a transmission electron microscope image in septic mouse pancreatic capillaries. A male BALB-C mouse was ligated approximately 5 mm of the cecal tip and penetrated through by 23G needle (CLPcecum ligation and puncture). a Normal. b Septic 12 h. c, d Septic 24 h. In the time course after CLP, vascular endothelial cells were bulging and swelling and dropped off the basement membrane of vascular endothelium. Bar: 20 μm
