Reinfection of rA2-19F worsened lung pathology. Pups were infected and reinfected as young adults with media, rA2-19F or A2. Six days post reinfection, lungs were isolated, fixed, and stained for histopathology. a–c H&E staining for inflammation. Scale bar = 100um. Arrows indicate inflammatory cell aggregates. d–f PAS staining for airway mucus production. Scale bar =400 um. Arrows indicate mucus producing cells. Sham/Sham: mice initially infected with media as neonates and reinfected with media as young adults; A2/A2: mice initially infected with A2 as neonates and reinfected with A2 as young adults; rA2-19F/rA2-19F: mice initially infected with rA2-19F as neonates and reinfected with rA2-19F as young adults. The figure is a representative of 2 independent experiments; 3 mice per experiment time point
