Images of thrombi observed in the femoral veins of mice following FeCl3 injury. a. Control mouse -Longitudinal section of femoral artery and vein. Lumen of vein is occluded by a large fibrin thrombus (asterisk) admixed with red blood cells. Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) 200x. b. Control mouse - Higher magnification of distal aspect of femoral vein demonstrating damage to vessel wall (arrow) with loss of endothelial and smooth muscle cells and focal infiltrate of neutrophils within wall. H&E 600x. c. FXIa treated mouse - Longitudinal section of femoral artery and vein demonstrating partially occlusive thrombus (asterisk). H&E 200x. d. FXIa treated mouse - Higher magnification of femoral vein thrombus (asterisk) comprised of fibrin, red blood cells and neutrophils. Damage to the adjacent wall of vessel (arrow) with loss of endothelial and smooth muscle cells. H&E 600x
