Molecular profiling of the intestinal mucosa and immune cells of the colon by multi-parametric histological techniques

Abstract The impact of the post-mortem interval (PMI) on the optical molecular characteristics of the colonic mucosa and the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) were examined by multi-parametric measurements techniques. Inflammatory cells were identified by immunohistochemical staining. Molecular...
