Fungal bodies in CNS blood vessels from patient AD1 detected by immunohistochemistry.

Double immunofluorescence assay analyzed by confocal microscopy as described in Materials and Methods. Blood vessels from different CNS regions from patient AD1 are shown. Panels A–E: EFC. Panels F and G: ERH. Panels H–L: CP. Panels A and I: anti-C. famata as primary antibody. Panels B, C, J: anti-C. albicans as primary antibody. Panels D, G, K: anti-P. betae as primary antibody. Panels E and L: anti-S. racemosum as primary antibody. Panels F and H: anti-C. glabrata as primary antibody. Anti-fungal antibodies are shown in green. An anti-human neurofilament antibody was used in all panels, except panels F and H, which were stained with anti-TauT100 antibodies (red.) DAPI appears in blue. Scale bar: 10 μm.
