Analysis of T Cell Subsets in Adult Primary/Idiopathic Minimal Change Disease: A Pilot Study

Figure 1

Detection of different lymphocyte and T cell subsets infiltrating kidney tissue in a patient with primary MCD with a mild-moderate infiltrate, using antibodies to CD4, CD8, CD19, granzyme B, IL-17, and Foxp3 as labelled on the pictures. An area with a significant infiltrate was selected for display purposes (200x magnification). The inlets on the lower right corner of each single-staining slide show a higher magnification (400x) of selected regions (small squares) to enhance visualization of marker-positive cells [immunohistochemistry staining using peroxidase conjugated antibodies].
