Figure 2

In situ staining of E-cadherin and CD4 in rectal tissue. Representative immunofluorescence images of rectal tissue sections from a rhesus macaque stained for E-cadherin (green) and CD4 (red). DAPI (blue) was used as a counterstain for visualization of cell nuclei. The images show staining from a biopsy taken at (a) baseline, (b) after placebo single-dose and (c) after 1% Q-GRFT single-dose. Images in the left column show overview fields of the whole tissue sections (scale bar: 500 μm). Images in the middle column show 20× magnification (scale bar: 100 μm) of the images in the left column. Images in right column show 40× magnification (scale bar: 50 μm) of the regions of interest indicated in the left and middle columns.
