Immunohistochemical staining of CD2 in Peyer’s Patches and MLN. Peyer’s Patches (Pp) of S. enterica-infected mice were highly reactive with heavy follicular CD2- staining (arrows), especially in probiotic-treated mice (a, control mice; b, probiotic-treated mice). There were no significant differences in staining between control and treated Peyer’s patches or lamina propria (Lp) (c). CD2 staining of cortical and paracortical lymph node tissue (d, control mice; e, probiotic-treated mice) in probiotic-treated Salmonella-infected mice were different than control mice. Images 10× magnification. Statistically significant differences in staining of cortical and paracortical regions of the lymph nodes between control and probiotic-treated mice are shown at the asterisk, P < 0.05 (f)
