Fig. 7

Expression of macrophages (HLA-DR+). HLA-DR+ immunolabeling in stage I and II granulomas showing: (a&b): strong positive expression observed within the cytoplasm of macrophages (arrows), and multi-nucleated giant cells (green arrow) respectively. (IHC, 50 μm). (c): HLA-DR+ macrophages immunolabeling forming a peripheral rim surrounding the necrotic center of the stage III granuloma (arrows). (d): Expression of HLA-DR+ macrophages (arrows), in a stage IV granuloma. (IHC, 100 μm). The expression of HLA-DR+ macrophages can be seen surrounding the necrotic center in the outer layer of the granuloma. (IHC, 100 μm)
