Figure 1 Heart histopathology and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Panels on left are examples of control hearts and on right are LPS treatments. A and B are hematoxylin and eosin stains showing clear hydropic change in the cells of the LPS treatment. C and D contrast ED1 IHC (monocyte/macrophage) with examples of labeled cells arrowed in D. E and F contrast activated caspase-3 IHC (apoptotic cells) with examples arrowed in F and negligible labeling in E.
