Expression of ANG-2 in lungs of P. falciparum-infected patients and control group. ANG-2 staining was executed in lung sections of people that died suddenly without any lung damage (CON), P. falciparum-infected patients without alveolar oedema (NA) and P. falciparum-infected patients with alveolar oedema (MA-ARDS). Each panel shows a section from a different patient. Arrowheads indicate ANG-2 expression in endothelial lining of large blood vessels (blue), and ANG-2⁺ leukocytes in alveoli (green) and in large blood vessels (red). Red frames demonstrate intravascular ANG-2 staining. All images were taken at ×20 magnification. Bar = 25 µM
