Figure 2. Alcohol abuse increases intestinal inflammatory TNFα+ cells in humans.

Figure 2

(A) TNFα mRNA expression in duodenal biopsies obtained from healthy controls (n = 15) and patients with chronic alcohol abuse (n = 22). (B and C) Duodenal biopsies obtained from healthy controls (n = 11) and patients with chronic alcohol abuse (n = 8) were stained with CD68 (red) and TNFα (green) by immunofluorescence. Nuclei are stained in blue. (B) Representative intestinal sections are shown (magnification x200). (C) Quantification of CD68/TNFα double positive cells. *p < 0.05.
