How does the immune system in the gut distinguish between helpful microbes and those that wish us harm?    
Immunostaining of brain section in which the epithelial choroid plexus expresses TGF-β (green), hanging in the brain ventricle, the keyhole-like structure delineated by the ependymal lining (red). In the box, monocytes (green) entering via the choroidal vasculature. The composition reflects the immune-educative nature of the choroid plexus as a gatekeeper of the route to the injured parenchyma

Prostaglandins guard stem cells by increasing the production of an inhibitory factor in the mesenchymal bone marrow cells. Mesenchymal cells are marked with a green protein (left); the inhibitory factor is red (center). Combined image (right): Treatment with prostaglandins (bottom) increases the secretion of the inhibitory factor
