Sections were stained as follows: MICA/B (red), Nuclei (blue). i. CD3<sup>+</sup> cells (green). ii and iii. CD7<sup>+</sup> cells (green).. iv. CD20<sup>+</sup> (green). v. CD138<sup>+</sup> cells (green). vi. HAM-56<sup>+</sup> cells (green). vii. CD11c<sup>+</sup> cells (green). viii. IC antibody (all cell lineage markers in green). (scan zoom 0.7, magnification 100×). <b>B.</b>- Expression of MICA/B in CD7<sup>+</sup> cells in sections of small intestine samples of 6 healthy controls, 8 mild enteropathy samples and 4 severe enteropathy samples. Percentage of MICA/B<sup>+</sup> cells in the CD7<sup>+</sup> population (left panel) and total number of <i>lamina propria</i> CD7<sup>+</sup> cells per unit of m.m. (right panel) were plotted. * <i>p</i>≤0,05; (Non parametric Kruskal wallis test followed by the Dunns multiple-comparison posttest). <b>C.</b>- Expression of MICA/B in CD138<sup>+</sup> cells in sections of small intestine samples of 13 healthy controls, 7 mild enteropathy and 5 severe enteropathy. Percentage of MICA/B<sup>+</sup> cells on the CD138<sup>+</sup> population (left panel) and total number of <i>lamina propria</i> CD138<sup>+</sup> cells per unit of m.m (right panel). ** p≤0.01, (Non parametric Kruskal wallis test followed by the Dunns multiple-comparison posttest).</p>
