Spirochaetosis of the human rectum associated with an intraepithelial mast cell and IgE plasma cell response. by Gebbers, J, Ferguson, D, Mason, C, Kelly, P, Jewell, D

“…In two patients presenting with mild intestinal symptoms, rectal spirochaetosis was the only morphological abnormality diagnosed by light microscopy. A re-evaluation of the morphological changes using electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry showed certain unusual features: the microorganisms were observed within epithelial cells and in subepithelial macrophages; there were numerous partially degranulated intraepithelial mast cells; and there was a marked increase in the proportion of IgE plasma cells within the lamina propria. …”

The Effect of Fluvoxamine on Sex Hormone Levels and Ovarian Histology in Trichogaster trichopterus after Bromocriptine Injection by SH Rashidpour, T Naji, H Hosseinzadeh Sahafi

“…The results turned out that the levels of these hormones decreased in Bromocriptine control group and increased in Fluvoxamine-receiving treatments. Light microscopy images showed that the ovarian development stage in intact control and solvent control is commonly Cortical stage, but these cells remain in the primary and secondary prenuclear stage in the control group of Bromocriptine. …”
