Figure 5. Significant decreases in CD25+, FoxP3+ T cells and APCs, whereas CD123+ pDCs show increases at the immunized site. (A) A significant decrease in the CD25, FoxP3–expressing T-cell infiltrate was noted when comparing skin biopsies taken from the immunization site before and after treatment (week 2). (B) S100+ and CD1a+ DC numbers also decreased at these time points, whereas CD123+ pDC numbers increased. Images were acquired using a model BX51 microscope with a 100×/1.25 NA Plan oil objective lens and Microfire digital camera with PictureFrame Version 2.3 software (Olympus). Digitized images were processed using Photoshop 7 image processing and manipulation software (Adobe Systems).
