Increased Keratinocyte Apoptosis in Lesional Skin
(A and B) TUNEL assay demonstrated increased apoptotic level of keratinocytes in lesional skin from individual 1 (B) compared to the control (A). The scale bars represent 50 μm.
(C and D) TEM of lesional skin from individual 1 showed expanded intercellular spaces (D, asterisks) compared to the control (C). The scale bars represent 5 μm.
(E) At higher magnification, chromatin condensation and margination (arrows) were apparent. The scale bar represents 2 μm.
