Fig 1 Diagnostics and characterization of IBH. A-D, Correlation of IBH lesion scores to blood parameters. IBH lesion scores were determined in biweekly to 4-week intervals during a whole season (April until October). Average lesion scores per horse were generated. EDTA blood and serum were taken once during the season with high symptoms (August). Eosinophil levels (EDTA blood) and Culicoides species–specific IgE levels (serum) were quantified by IDEXX Diavet. Correlation between average lesion scores and Culicoides species–specific IgE levels (IgE levels >150 ELISA absorbance units [EA] are considered allergic; dotted gray line; Fig 1, A), blood eosinophil count (Fig 1, B), serum IL-5 levels (quantified by means of ELISA; Fig 1, C), and blood eosinophil counts in a larger cohort (Fig 1, D) are shown. E and F, IBH skin biopsy. A representative skin biopsy specimen of a fresh lesion from an IBH-affected horse. Fig 1, E, Eosinophils in an IBH skin biopsy specimen. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used. An overview (scale bar = 800 μm, upper panel) and enlarged section (scale bar = 200 μm, lower panel) are shown. Eosinophil-rich regions in the enlarged section are marked by circles. Fig 1, F, T cells in an IBH biopsy specimen. CD3 staining was used. An overview (scale bar = 300 μm) is shown. A CD3+-rich region is marked by a circle. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology 2018 142, 1194-1205.e3DOI: (10.1016/j.jaci.2018.01.041) Copyright © 2018 The Authors Terms and Conditions
