Observation of mouse lung sections infected by the pulmonary pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the pathogen of tuberculosis. Researchers quantified the degree of inflammation in these sections. They compared infection by the wild strain of Mtb with a mutated Mtb strain, looking for a gene implicated in the virulence of the inflammation. They were able to confirm that the mutant generates a lower degree of inflammation than the wild strain, evidence that the mutant may be less virulent…

A mixture of antibodies was deposited on pre-treated glass slides on which sections of subcutaneously induced murine fibrosarcoma had been placed. The fibrosarcoma models spontaneously generated HEV blood vessels (high endothelium veinules) 8 days after induction in the mouse. Researchers were seeking to detect the presence of specific RNA for these blood vessels on the glass slides. The antibodies will be used to co-mark the RNA of these vessels.
