Figure 3From: CXCL10+ T cells and NK cells assist in the recruitment and activation of CXCR3+ and CXCL11+ leukocytes during Mycobacteria-enhanced colitisIntestinal histological characteristics of IL-10-/- mice challenged with Mycobacteria. IL-10-/- mice on B6 background, received 200 μl of cream milk alone (○; control) or cream milk containing 104 CFU of live (●) or heat-killed (▲) M. avium paratuberculosis. After sacrifice, intestines were fixed, sectioned at 6 μm, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Sections were examined by light microscopy. Experimental groups consisted of 5 mice and experiments were repeated 3 times.Back to article page
