Reduced apoptosis in sheep ileal Peyer's patch is associated with low levels of follicle centre carbonic anhydrase reactivity.

Abstract excerpt

Apoptosis in lymphoid follicles of the ileal Peyer's patch (IPP) in 21 sheep of two different age groups was visualized by the TdT-mediated dUTP nick end-labelling (TUNEL) method, and quantified using computer-assisted image analysis. The IPP follicle carbonic anhydrase (CA) reactivity was evaluated in the same samples. No significant differences with respect to apoptosis and CA reactivity were found between...
