Double labeling for TH (brown) and CD3 (red) in sections from donor 002 spleen. A TH + nerves around blood vessels and throughout red pulp. CD3 + T leukocytes are scattered throughout the red pulp at a moderate rate. B Higher magnification image of panel A showing the close proximity of CD3 + T leukocytes with TH + nerves in red pulp, indicated by arrows. C TH + nerves extend from the capsule (c). D Higher magnification image of panel C showing the close association of TH + nerves (arrows) with CD3 + T leukocytes in this subcapsular region. E CD3 + T leukocytes are densely packed around a central arteriole (ca.) cut longitudinally. TH + nerves hug the blood vessels in the parenchyma. F Higher magnification image of panel E showing the close association of CD3 + T leukocytes and TH + nerves around blood vessels in the PALS
