Table 1.
Stain | Tg(−) (n=4) | Tg(+) (n=5) | P-values | |
---|---|---|---|---|
CD4+ cells | IHC | 2.1 ± 0.13 | 8.1 ± 1.011 | 0.016 |
Eosinophils | HE | 0.31 ± 0.18 | 7.4 ± 0.941 | 0.031 |
F4/80+ cells | IHC | 4.5 ± 0.34 | 14.66 ± 3.151 | 0.011 |
Mast cells | TB | 14.41 ± 1.23 | 52.42 ± 4.611 | 0.02 |
Skin sections were stained with H&E (HE), toluidine blue (TB), or immunohistochemistry (IHC) and the unit is number of cells per high power field. Values are mean ± SEM.
Difference is statistically significant.
