A Neutrophilic granulocyte infiltration in the lamina propria of the jejunum (40×/0.75 NA, scale bar, 120 µm). Insert: Close-up of neutrophilic granulocytes. B Epithelial necrosis (n) partly bordered by neutrophilic granulocytes (arrow) in the colon (20×/0.50 NA, scale bar, 250 µm). C Colitis characterised by extensive neutrophilic granulocyte infiltration in the lamina propria (arrows), crypt abscesses (arrowheads), epithelial necrosis (n) infiltrated with neutrophilic granulocytes and hypersecretion (h) (10×/0.30 NA, scale bar, 200 µm)
