Influence of the LOX inhibitor BAPN on the collagenization of abscesses. NMRI mice were treated as described in the legend to Fig. 7. Five days after infection, kidneys were excised, formalin fixed, and paraffin embedded, and sections were stained with Masson's trichrome stain. Note the clear blue lining (arrows) of abscess borders (dashed white lines) in the control group, indicating collagen, which is much less evident in BAPN-treated mice. Bar, 100 μm.
