Figure 3 Paraformaldehyde-fixed duodenal tissue from a patient with functional dyspepsia. The tissue was stained immunohistochemically using a polyclonal antibody against 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). There are many 5-HT immunoreactive cells in the surface epithelium, both in the crypts and the villi. The biopsy has an intact surface epithelium without signs of mechanical damage (magnification ×220).
