Figure 5. TSPO in astrocytes in HIVE.

Figure 5

All cases of HIVE displayed some degree of astrocytic expression. One case with relatively high astrocytic expression of the TSPO is shown with double-label IHC for GFAP (A, D panels). The same case is stained for TSPO with HIV-1 p24 (B). Two other cases with less astrocytic staining are shown (C, E panels). Note that GFAP+ astrocytes are not double-labeled in these cases. Double-labeled astrocytes are indicated with arrowheads, while TSPO-expressing microglia (GFAP−) are indicated with arrows. The scale bar represents 30 μm in A and C, 60 μm in B, 12.5 μm in D and 50 μm in E.
