Localization and phenotype of T-cells in HSV-1 latently infected human TG.

Abstract

<p>(A) Representative image of an HSV-1 latently infected TG stained by immunohistochemistry (IHC) for CD3 (red). Inset: magnification of the TG tissue showing a cluster of CD3<sup>+</sup> cells in panel A. (B; left panel) Double immunofluoresence staining for CD4 (red) and CD8 (green) combined with DNA counterstaining (DAPI; blue nuclei). The white arrows signify autofluorescent cytoplasmatic granules in neurons containing lipofuscin and neuron outlines are marked with white dotted lines. (B; right panel) Consecutive TG tissue sections stained for CD8 (brown) and granzyme B (brown), CD8 (brown) and TIA-1 (brown), and CD3 (red) and CD137 (red). Sections were developed with diaminobenzidine (brown staining pattern) or 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole (red staining pattern) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue nuclei). Magnifications were: (A) ×20 and inset ×200, (B; left panel) ×400 and (B; right panel) ×1000. Representative images from 10 HSV-1 latently infected TG donors analyzed.</p
