2 Figure 1 Chlamydophila pneumoniae treatment results in melanoma metastasis regression and increases survival of animals as well as of CD11b+ and CD80+ immune cell infiltration of tumor tissues. (a, c) Number of lung metastases, (b, d) melanoma antigen MART, and (t) survival rate of mock or Chlamydophila pneumoniae (CP)-treated immunocompetent C57BL/6 and immunodeficient NSG mice. (e–h) Representative images and hematoxylin and eosin-stained histological sections of dissected lungs of (e) mock and (f) CP-treated immunocompetent mice, as well as of (g) mock and (h) CP-treated immunodeficient (NSG) animals. Note that subpleural metastasis formation is extensive in diameter but not in thickness in NSG mice (arrowheads). Bars = 100 μm. (e) Trophical necroses indicate high tumor burden. Inset: atypical tumor cells and regions of necrosis. (f) Circles and right inset: foci of regressive metastases. Left inset: areas of residual pneumonitis after CP treatment. (g, h) In both mock and CP-treated NSG mice, miliary metastases were developed subpleurally (arrowheads) and intraparenchymally (circles) without significant inflammatory reactions (insets: higher magnification of intraparenchymal metastases). (i–l) Immunohistochemistry of (i, j) CD11b (diaminobenzidine, brown) and (k, l) CD80 (Fast red, red) on lungs of (i, k) mock or (j, l) CP-treated C57BL/6 mice. Dashed lines indicate tumor border. (i–r) Arrows indicate infiltrating immune cells. Intratumoral number of (m) CD11b+ and (n) CD80+ cells determined as a ratio of 100 tumor cells in C57BL/6 mice. (s) CD80+ cells in NSG lungs counted by square millimeter. Data are given as mean ± standard deviation.
