The Possible Role of the Novel Cytokines IL-35 and IL-37 in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Figure 5
Photomicrographs of immunostaining for IL-37 in patients with UC (a and b), patients with CD (c and d), and control subjects (e and f). IL-37 was expressed by both immune and epithelial cells (a–d), and normal tissue had IL-37 expression, though with relatively small amount (e and f). Besides strong cytoplasmic staining, few single lamina propria mononuclear cells showed nuclear expression of IL-37.
