Figure 5

(AL) Light micrographs showing portions of capsule of sections submitted to immunohistochemistry for detection of IL-10 (brown/yellow color) and counterstained with hematoxylin. Note that few immunostained cells are present in the capsules of all groups, particularly at 7 days (AC). In all groups, an evident immunolabelling is present in the mast cells (MC). Arrows, inflammatory cells; BV, blood vessels; material particles, arrowheads. Bars: 18 µm. (M) The graphic shows the values (expressed as mean ± standard deviation) of the numerical density of IL-10-immunolabelled cells in the capsules. In each period, the comparison among the groups is indicated by superscript letters; different letters = significant difference. The superscript numbers indicate the analysis of each group over time; different numbers = significant difference. Tukey’s test (p ≤ 0.05).
