From: Plasmacytoid dendritic cells are scarcely represented in the human gut mucosa and are not recruited to the celiac lesion

Figure 6

Myxovirus resistance gene A (MxA) expression is increased in the celiac lesion and even more in skin lesions from discoid lupus erythematosus. (a) Immunofluorescence staining for MxA (red) in formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded section of duodenal mucosa from a normal healthy control (HC; left panel), an untreated CD patient (UCD; middle panel), and skin from a patient with lupus (right panel). Original magnification × 400. (b) Epithelial MxA expression in 10 UCD, 10 HC and 10 patients with lupus, graded 0–5 as described in the Methods section.
