Fig 1

Paraffin wax sections, antigen retrieval and indirect immunoperoxidase stainings were carried out on the biopsy of a patient suffering from chronic arthralgia 18-months post-CHIKV infection. Different markers were tested for the presence of leukocytes (CD45), dendritic cells (DEC205), T cells (CD3 and CD8), macrophages (CD68), angiogenesis (CD31) and prostaglandin biosynthesis (COX-2). Further staining are depicted in S1 Fig, such as for MBP (negative control).
