What Are Common Histological Markers of Increased Susceptibility?
Several histological markers can indicate increased susceptibility to infections: - Epithelial Damage: Disruption in the integrity of epithelial layers can serve as entry points for pathogens. - Inflammatory Cells: An unusual number of inflammatory cells in tissues can indicate ongoing, unresolved infections or a predisposition to infections. - Fibrosis: Excessive fibrous tissue can impede normal tissue function and increase susceptibility to infections.
