Figure Lengend Snippet: Immunohistochemistry for CD11c, vervets, multiple organs. (A) Y. enterocolitica- positive vervet, mesenteric lymph node, case 6. Approximately 20% of cells within the lymph node medullary sinus stain positively for CD11c. (B) Control vervet, mesenteric lymph node. CD11c-positive antigen-presenting cells (APCs) make up about 80% of the cells within the cortex and medullary sinuses of the lymph node. (C) Y. enterocolitica- positive vervet, placenta, case 20. CD11c-positive APCs are centered on areas of necrosis and are also increased in maternal blood. (D) Control vervet, placenta. CD11c-positive cells are rare within the control placenta. (E) Y. enterocolitica- positive vervet, colon, case 3. CD11c-positive cells are prevalent within lesions. (F) Control vervet, colon. Two CD11c-positive APCs are present within the colonic mucosa. (G) Y. enterocolitica- positive vervet, lung, case 1. Abundant CD11c-positive cells are found within necrotic lesions. (H) Control vervet, lung. CD11c-positive cells are numerous but confined to the interstitial space of the control lung.
