How Does H&E Staining Contribute to Understanding Mechanisms of Toxicity?
H&E staining can reveal detailed information about the mechanisms of toxicity. For example, it can demonstrate the presence of necrotic cells, which indicates acute toxicity, or the infiltration of inflammatory cells, which suggests an immune response to injury. Moreover, by examining tissues at different time points after exposure, researchers can gain insights into the progression of toxic effects and the healing process.
