Fig 8. IP-10 positive cells in jejunum of chronically SIVmac-infected macaques.

Fig 8

(a) confocal image of a jejunum section stained for CD68 (green), IP-10 (red) and total nucleus (blue). The picture represents the distribution of IP-10+ cells in jejunum of chronically infected macaques (240 dpi) (representative picture for one animal out of 3 animals studied). IP-10+ cells were found in the lamina propria around and in the villi as well as at the top of the villi. Most IP-10+ cells were CD68 negative. A fraction of CD68+ cells produced IP-10. Cells were often organized in clusters. (B) Magnification showing IP-10+ cells negative for CD68 found at the bottom of the villus. The morphology evoke T cells. (C) Magnification showing IP-10+ positive for CD68+. (D) Magnification showing IP-10+ cells organized in a cluster. Many IP-10+ cells in these clusters were CD68+. Pictures were obtained using a leica SP8 confocal microscope. All pictures were analyzed with ImageJ software.
