From: Immunosuppression abrogates resistance of young rabbits to Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD)

Figure 2

Immunocytochemistry of apoptosis in the liver, spleen and thymus. Light micrographs of the liver, spleen and thymus paraffin sections where the immunodetection of cellular apoptosis was obtained by TUNEL; counterstaining with haematoxylin. In liver sections, bar = 100 μm; in spleen and thymus sections, bar = 200 μm. A: A liver paraffin section of an immunosuppressed, RHDV-infected young rabbit that died due to RHD. B: A liver paraffin section of an immunosuppressed, RHDV-infected young rabbit that died from RHD; control of the TUNEL assay. C: A spleen paraffin section of an immunosuppressed young rabbit euthanized 7 days after immunosuppression. D: A thymus paraffin section of an immunosuppressed young rabbit euthanized 7 days after immunosuppression. E: A spleen paraffin section of an immunosuppressed, RHDV-infected young rabbit that died from RHD. F: A thymus paraffin section of an immunosuppressed, RHDV-infected young rabbit that died from RHD. G: A spleen paraffin section of an infected young rabbit euthanized 7 days after RHDV infection. H: A thymus paraffin section of an infected young rabbit euthanized 7 days after RHDV infection.
