EBOV infection of paradrenal ganglia and peripheral medium myelinated nerves. (a) Low numbers of macrophages infiltrate between ganglion cells in the paradrenal ganglion. Viral intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies (arrows) are present within satellite cells, neurofibroblasts, Schwann cells, and macrophages (H&E). (b) Satellite cells, neurofibroblasts, Schwann cells, and macrophages, and intravascular plasma (EBOV VP40 IHC: DAB chromogen and hematoxylin). (c) Satellite cells, neurofibroblasts, Schwann cells, and macrophages in the ganglion (EBOV NP ISH: fast red chromogen and hematoxylin). (d) Viral intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies (arrows) are present within neurofibroblasts and Schwann cells within a nerve, with low numbers of perivascular infiltrating macrophages (bottom) (H&E). (e) Rare infected Schwann cells and neurofibroblasts within a myelinated nerve (EBOV VP40 IHC: DAB chromogen and hematoxylin). (f) Low numbers of Schwann cells, neurofibroblasts, and infiltrating macrophages within a myelinated nerve (EBOV NP ISH: fast red chromogen and hematoxylin).
