<p>Images are representative of tissues obtained from 3 non-asthmatic and 3 asthmatic patients. Nuclei and muscle: magenta, collagen: green, RBC: orange. Note epithelial hyperplasia, thickening of muscle bundles and basement membrane, and increased micro-vessel density in asthmatic airways. E = epithelium, MB = muscle bundles, BM = basement membrane, MV = micro-vessels. </p
