Figure 2. Tissues were stained with hematoxylin and eosin to visualize tissue architecture in different groups.

S. aureus induced an increased number of neutrophils in inflammatory reaction, while systemic application of p38 agonists anisomycin reduced these responses [B: Bone; BM: Bone marrow]. Osteoblasts (A), osteocytes (B), neutrophils (C) and red blood cells (D) were observed in the tissues. Original magnification×400.
