2 Fig. 1 Distribution of human adenovirus (HAdV) persistence within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. A total of 576 biopsies from the GI tract were analysed for the presence of HAdV DNA in 143 non- haematopoietic stem cell transplant control patients. Frequency of HAdV detection within individual sections of the GI tract is shown, highlighting the ileum as the most prevalent site.

3 Fig. 2 In situ hybridisation for human adenovirus (HAdV) DNA on biopsy specimens from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The top panels (a–c) show representative findings in biopsies from the terminal ileum obtained from non-haematopoietic stem cell transplant (non-HSCT) control individuals with HAdV persistence displaying scattered signals in lymphoid cells of the lamina propria. A signal in an epithelial cell, rarely observed in patients with persistent virus, is shown in (a) (arrow). The central panels (d–f) represent biopsies derived from HAdV-positive transplant recipients showing dense hybridisation signals within epithelial cells and scattered signals in restricted areas of the lamina propria (f). The bottom panels represents positive (g) and negative (h) hybridisation controls, respectively. (c, f: 100× magnification, all others: 400×.)

4 Fig. 3 Immunohistochemical detection of human adenovirus (HAdV) protein expression. (a, b) Ileum biopsies from HAdV-positive non-haematopoietic stem cell transplant (non-HSCT) individuals revealing positive signals in interstitial lymphoid cells in one patient (a) and absence of any detectable viral protein expression in another patient (b). (c, d) Representative biopsies from two HAdV-positive transplant recipients with strong signals of viral protein expression in epithelial cells. (All panels: 400× magnification.)

5 Fig. 4 Distribution of human adenovirus (HAdV) species in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. (a–c) Relative prevalence of persistent HAdV species detected in biopsies from the jejunum (a), ileum (b) and colon (c), which displayed the highest frequency of virus positivity among the sections of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract analysed. (d) Similar overall occurrence of different HAdV species in tissue biopsies from the GI tract in non-haematopoietic stem cell transplant (non-HSCT) paediatric patients with viral persistence (black columns) in comparison with stool specimens in children after allogeneic HSCT (grey columns).
