Figure Lengend Snippet: Virus antigen and pathology in the lungs after challenge (A and B) 2 NHP per group were euthanized on day 8 postchallenge and tissue sections taken from lungs. (A) Left: representative images indicating detection of SARS-CoV-2 N antigen by immunohistochemistry with a polyclonal anti-N antibody. Antigen-positive foci are marked by a red arrow. Right: hematoxylin and eosin stain (H&E) illustrating the extent of inflammation and cellular infiltrates. Images at 10× magnification with black bars for scale (100 μm). (B) SARS-CoV-2 antigen and inflammation scores in the left cranial lobe (Lc), right middle lobe (Rmid), and right caudal lobe (Rc) of the lungs. Antigen scoring legend: − no antigen detected; +/− rare to occasional foci; + occasional to multiple foci; ++ multiple to numerous foci; +++ numerous foci. Inflammation scoring legend: − absent to minimal inflammation; +/− minimal to mild inflammation; + mild to moderate inflammation; ++ moderate-to-severe inflammation; +++ severe inflammation. Horizontal rows correspond to individual NHP depicted above (A).
