Fig. 2 Suralnervebiopsyspecimens revealedprominent large polyglucosan bodies. A, Longitudinal paraffin-embedded section stained withLuxolfast blue/periodic acid-Schiff demonstrates an enlarged polyglucosan body separating the myelin sheath of a myelinated fiber (arrow). B, Semithin epoxy-embedded cross section of a largepolyglucosan bodystainedwithmethylene blue surrounded by thinned myelin(arrow). C, Transmission electron micrograph of a typical polyglucosan bodydemonstrating a separation between the edge of the polyglucosan body and normalappearing axoplasm (arrow). Note the overlapping fibrilsembedded withina densebackground matrixmaterial.
