From: Characterization of NCR1+ cells residing in lymphoid tissues in the gut of lambs indicates that the majority are NK cells

Figure 6

NCR1+ cells in relation to DCs. In situ co-localisation studies of NCR1+ cells and dendritic cells, represented here in the jejunal Peyer’s patch (A) and superficial cervical lymph node (B). NCR1+ (green) cells were found in the same compartments as CD205+ (red)/CD11c+ (blue) dendritic cells (pink-purple) and were sometimes observed in close contact with each other (long arrow). Note that occasionally, the NK cells were found intraepithelially, including in the follicle-associated epithelium (fae) (short arrow) and were often observed to be in cell-to-cell contact with each other (arrowhead). Lamina propria (lp); dome (d); follicle (f). Bars 100 μm.
