Neutrophil response, epithelial damage, and neutrophil accumulation in the kidneys of infected mCxcr2+/+ and mCxcr2+/− mice. (a) Early subepithelial neutrophil influx in wild-type mice after 6 h of infection. Wild-type mice show intact epithelium and no neutrophil accumulation. (b) Delayed subepithelial neutrophil influx (arrows) and neutrophil accumulation (*) 7 days after infection in heterozygous mice. Proliferating epithelium was observed 14 days after infection in mCxcr2+/− mice. Hematoxylin–eosin staining (left panel) and immunohistochemistry, using the monoclonal granulocyte-specific antibody (RB6-8C5; right panel). IF, infiltrate.
