Raw CD36 Immunofluorescence Images of Aorta from Atherosclerosis Study

He-Ping Liu uploaded raw immunofluorescence images of CD36 protein expression in the aorta on 2026-05-05. The 55.8 MB dataset is associated with a study investigating the anti-atherosclerotic effects of a polyphenol extract in ApoE-deficient mice. The images were generated as part of the in vivo experimental analysis described in the accompanying research article.

Use Cases

• Training image segmentation models to identify CD36 expression patterns in aortic tissue.
• Benchmarking fluorescence intensity quantification algorithms based on immunofluorescence staining.
• Conducting secondary analysis on the correlation between CD36 expression and atherosclerotic plaque development mentioned in the study.

Strengths

• Dataset is 55.8 MB in size, indicating a collection of raw image files.
• Associated with a specific, described preclinical study on atherosclerosis in ApoE-deficient mice.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• The exact number of images (rows) is unknown, making it difficult to assess scale.
• Column-level documentation is absent; image metadata and annotation details must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
