Fig. 6From: Role of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) in Peripheral Nerve Regeneration: Anti-MIF Antibody Induces Delay of Nerve Regeneration and the Apoptosis of Schwann CellsImmunohistochemistry for Schwann cells in intratubal and distal nerve segments. The immunohistochemical analysis was carried out on tissue specimens from intratubal and distal nerve segments treated with the anti-MIF antibody, which were obtained at week 4 after surgery using an antibody against S-100 protein. Reacted with non-immune rabbit IgG (a) and anti-S100 antibody (b) for intratubal nerve segments. Reacted with the non-immune IgG (c) and anti-S100 antibody (d) for distal nerve segments. No positive staining was observed when non-immune rabbit IgG was used instead of the anti-S-100 antibody, and similar results were obtained for the tissue sections obtained at week 6. All magnifications are ×400.Back to article page
