From: Characterization of giant endocrine cells in the fundic stomach of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) demonstrated by histochemical, immunohistochemical and ultrastructure microscopy methods suggesting their role in immunity

Fig. 6

Shows the immune reactivity of the endocrine cells with CD68. The fundic stomach paraffin section was immune stained with CD68. A: Endocrine cells positive for CD68 (shown by arrows) are seen in the gastric gland (gl), lamina propria (lp), and submucosa (sb). B: Endocrine cells positive for CD68 (shown by arrows) formed clusters within the sub-epithelial lymphatic space (ls). C, D: CD68-positive endocrine cells (shown by arrows) are situated in the submucosa (sb)
