Strongly NSE+ DCs are present in the LP and T cell areas of MLNs from germ-free rats. LNs and ileum from germ-free rats were snap frozen. Cryosections of ileum (A) and MLN (B) were fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde, reacted for NSE (red), and labeled for OX62 (blue in A, brown in B). (A) Double-positive cells (<) are present in apposition to the epithelium. One cell (<<, enlarged in inset) appears to be engulfing an epithelial cell. (B) Several large, irregular, double-positive cells are present in the T cell area of the node (<, >).
