Figure 4. HIV and SIV infections increase mucus and GABAARα2 expression in the lung.

Figure 4

Lung sections from control, HIV-infected, and HIV + HAART patients were (A): stained for AB-PAS for mucus and (B): stained for GABAARα2 by IHC. Similarly, lung sections from control, SIV-infected, and SIV + ART monkeys were (C): stained with AB-PAS for mucus and (D): IHC for GABAARα2. (E): Mucus containing cells (MC’s)/mm basal lamina were enumerated microscopically in lung sections from control, SIV-infected, and SIV + ART lung sections. Error bars in (E) represent data from at least 5 different lung sections from each group.
