Figure 3

Immunolocalization of Type-I and -II TGFβ family receptors in Taenia crassiceps (A), brain-derived T. solium (B), and skeletal muscle-derived T. solium (C) cysticerci. Six-micrometer sections of both larval specimens reveal a strong binding to the tegument (T) and tegumental cells (Tc), and a less intense binding to parenchymal (P), dense bodies (DB), and vacuoles (V) both in T. solium and in T. crassiceps of rabbit anti-TGFβRI and RII antibodies. Subjacent nuclear layer (N), spiral canal (SC), parenchymal folds (PF), LSPF loose stroma of parenchymal folds, tegument spiral canal (TSC). Controls with non-immunized rabbit serum showed no reaction.
