Blockade of LTαβ/LTβR interactions
results in abnormal splenic architecture. Splenic tissue sections from
mice expressing either low (A, C, and
E) or high (B, D, and
F) levels of the LTβR–Fc transgene, as described in
Fig. 2. Formalin-fixed sections were stained with hematoxylin/eosin
(A–D). A single arrow represents the
location of the central arterioles, and a double arrow defines the
marginal zones. Frozen tissue sections were stained with antibodies
specific for T-cell (red) and B-cell (green) antigens (E
and F), as described in Fig. 2. (A,
B, E, and F, ×100;
C and D, ×400.)
