Figure 3From: The effect of Psoroptes ovis infestation on ovine epidermal barrier functionImmunohistochemical labelling of filaggrin and loricrin and changes in skin histopathology following P. ovis infestation. (a) Representative images of fluorescence immunohistochemical (IHC) labelling of filaggrin and loricrin and H&E stained sections from one sheep at time 0, 1, 3 and 24 hpi. Scale bars represent 20 μm. Mean fluorescence intensity (MFI)/mm epithelium for filaggrin (b) and loricrin (c) IHC labelling at time 0, 1, 3 and 24 hpi. (d) Mean polymorphonuclear cell counts/mm2 at time 0, 1, 3 and 24 hpi. ** = p < 0.01, *** = p < 0.001. Error bars show standard error of the mean (SEM).Back to article page
