Examples of immunofluorescence staining. (a–c) Positive staining for terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase fluorescein-dUTP nick end labeling in the lupus band (LB) at the dermoepidermal junction (DEJ) (a: green) and counterstain with bisbenzimide (b: blue; c: overlay) (case 8); (d–f) positive staining for anti-Smith at the DEJ and in the nuclei (e: red) and colocalization with IgM in the LB (d: green; f: overlay) (case 9); (g–i) positive staining for anti-La/SSB at the DEJ and in the nuclei (h: red) and colocalization with IgM in the LB (g: green; i: overlay) (case 9); (j–l) positive staining for anti-U1 RNP at the DEJ and in the nuclei (k: red) and colocalization with IgG in the LB (j: green; l: overlay) (case 10); (m–o) negative staining for anti-Ro/SSA at the DEJ and positive staining in the nuclei (n: red) and positive staining for IgM in the LB (m: green; o: overlay) (case 6); (p–r) negative staining for anti-dsDNA at the DEJ and positive staining in the nuclei (q: red) and positive staining for IgM in the LB (p: green; r: overlay) (case 14). Scale bar = 25 μm.
