Macroscopic and histopathology of rabbit lung specimens. On the 7th day after C. albicans infection, lung specimens were visually examined. a) Histopathological images of (a) a normal healthy lung specimen from the control group (magnification × 1), (b) a lung from the C. albicans infection model group with nodular lesions (red arrows) (magnification × 2), (c) a lung from the rabbit C. albicans infection model group with diffuse nodular lesions (red arrows) (magnification × 1). B) PAS staining of (a) a normal healthy lung tissue and (b) upper panel, a lung tissue of a rabbit infected with C. albicans (magnification × 400), (b) lower panel, white arrows indicate pseudohyphae/hyphae, black arrows indicate yeast forms (magnification × 800). c) HE staining of (a) infiltration of surrounding lymphocytes (blue arrows) and (b) infiltration of surrounding eosinophilic granulocyte (yellow arrows) (magnification × 800)
