Histopathological characterization of WD-MCF lesions observed in liver (i to vi), kidney (vii to xii), and lung (xiii to xviii) explanted from mock-infected rabbits (top) or from rabbits infected with the WT strain (middle) or the 247Nluc⁺-excised strain (bottom). Images originally obtained with low (×100) and high (×400) magnifications are shown. Typical infiltrations of lymphoblastoid cells are indicated by white arrowheads. Each image is representative of lesions observed among rabbits of the same group. A, arterioles; Av, alveolar spaces; Bi, small bile ducts; Hp, hepatocytes; RC, renal corpuscles; T, uriniferous tubules; V, veins.
