Characterization of colonic dendritic cells in normal and colitic mice

Figure 4 Electron micrographs of colonic DC from normal and colitic mice. Electron micrographs of cells from the colonic LP of normal C57BL/6 and colitic C57BL/6-^IL2-/- mice showing (A) dendritic cell type 1 (myeloid DC) from a C57BL/6 mouse (×17 250), (B) dendritic cell type 1-2 from C57BL/6-^IL2-/- mouse (×17 250), (C) dendritic cell type 2 (plasmacytoid DC) from C57BL/6-^IL2-/- mouse (×13 800) with prominent RER, (D) dendritic cell type 1 (myeloid DC) from C57BL/6-^IL2-/- mouse (×23 000), (E) plasma cell from C57BL/6-^IL2-/- mouse (×17 250) and (F) Mott cell from C57BL/6-^IL2-/- mouse (×17 250). Tissue was analyzed from the colons of 3 C57BL/6-^IL2-/- and 3 C57BL/6 animals.
