Figure 2

Enterocytic colocalization of amyloid-β with apo B under LF and SFA feeding. The enterocytic colocalization of amyloid-β (Aβ) with apolipoprotein B (apo B) in low-fat (LF) and saturated fat (SFA) fed mice is shown in three dimensions. The inset images depict the separate channel view for Aβ and apo B respectively. Amyloid-β is seen in red pixels, apo B as yellow and nuclei as blue. The perinuclear region (white arrow) and lacteal (Lp) orientation of enterocytes is indicated. Lu labels the lumen that represents the apical surface of the cell and Lp (lamina propria) is the direction of lacteals where lipoproteins are expelled via exocytosis. Scale: bar (2D inset images) = 10 μm; grid (3D images) = 3.63 μm.
