a-f Detection of NLRP1 inflammasomes (green) and derived cytokine IL-18 (red) in the prostate by immunohistochemistry in prostate of sham (panel a, c and e) and formalin injected group (panel b, d and f). Merged image in panel F shows the co-localized expression of NLRP1 with IL-8 against the DAPI blue background in formalin injected prostate and its marked absence in sham prostate. g-l Detection of NLRP1 inflammasomes (green) and derived cytokine IL-18 (red) by immunohistochemistry in bladder of sham (panel g, i and k) and formalin injected group (panel h, j and l). Merged image shows the constitutive expression of IL-18 against the DAPI blue background, but the absence of NLRP1 in bladder
