METHODS: Sequential staining and high resolution imaging were used to study freshly prepared cryo-sections from 10 patients with histologically confirmed steatohepatitis using oil red O for fat droplet identification, H&E to identify ballooning, and anti-K18 to confirm cytoskeletal changes.ONCLUSIONS: These results indicate a relationship between cellular ballooning, fat droplet accumulation, and cytoskeletal injury in NASH. We speculate that injury to multiple, organelles including fat droplets and endoplasmic reticulum, contribute to this characteristic finding.
In Minnesota, the most commonly affected woody plants are roses (Rosa spp. ), willow (Salix spp. ), poplar (Populus spp. ) and fruit trees like apple (Malus spp. ), cherry, plum or apricot (Prunus spp. ). All of these plants are highly susceptible to crown gall.rown gall is caused by the bacterium, Agrobacterium tumefaciens. This pathogen is found on more than 600 different species of plants worldwide including many common vegetables, weeds, deciduous and evergreen trees and shrubs.
Leaf Miner Infestation. Leaf miners are a type of pest that can affect lime trees. These attack the foliage of the lime tree and cause extensive physical damage to the branches, leaves and trunk of the tree. According to an article on SignOnSanDiego.com, the citrus leaf miner was first detected in the Western Hemisphere in 1993 and attacked Persian lime trees in Florida.
