α-Synuclein pathology and CD68 immunopositive microglia in the hippocampal CA2 region of control subjects, iLBD cases and PD patients. (a, b) α-synuclein IR in the CA2 of control and iLBD cases is absent compared to (c) PD patients (purple, LBs: arrow, LNs: arrowhead); (d) a control subject showing CD68 positive ramified microglial cells (arrow), (e) an iLBD case showing CD68 positive ramified (arrow) and few microglial cells with an amoeboid (concave arrowhead) phenotype and (f) a PD patient, showing CD68 positive ramified (arrow) and several amoeboid (concave arrowhead) microglial cells; bar (a-f) = 100 μm.
