Effects of cecal ligation puncture (CLP) induced sepsis on apoptosis of lymphocytes. Almost no apoptotic cells were detected in mesenteric lymph nodes at baseline. At the endpoint of CLP induced sepsis shock, mesenteric lymph nodes from CLP animals demonstrated a marked appearance of dark brown apoptotic cells and intercellular apoptotic fragments (see arrow). The presence of apoptotic cells or fragments was significantly reduced in the PDF animals. (a) p < 0.01 vs. baseline; (b) p < 0.01
