Co-localisation of MPO positive neutrophils and T. gondii in lung tissue. A-D . Histological staining of MPO positive neutrophils in lung tissue from C57BL/6 mice after exposure of SWCNT and/or T. gondii inoculation. Representative pictures of (A) PBS control, 40x magnification (B) SWCNT, 40x magnification (C ) T. gondii 104, 20x magnification (D) SWCNT + T. gondii 104 20x magnification. E-H. Representative photomicrographs of fluorescence stained cells within pulmonary tissue of (E) PBS control, (F) SWCNT, (G ) T. gondii 104, (H ) SWCNT + T. gondii 104. Sections were mounted in medium for fluorescence including DAPI (blue). MPO positive neutrophils stained in red and T. gondii parasites stained in green in lung tissue.
