The higher numbers of Zap70+ T cells in infected anterior intestine are not actively proliferating. Representative micrographs of infected anterior intestine that showed high zap70 gene expression and higher numbers of Zap70+ cells. a Overview images from two RCPT fish double stained with anti-Zap70 (red) and anti-BrdU (green) antibodies. Nuclear staining was performed with DAPI (blue). White arrows point to proliferating epithelial cells. White arrowheads point to other proliferating nuclei with lymphocyte-like shape. b Details showing scattered or grouped Zap70+ cells (red) none of which shows BrdU immunoreactive nuclei. Conversely, BrdU+ cells did not show Zap70 immunoreactivity. Scale-bars: a, 20 μm; b, 5 μm
