Photomicrographs from Group I (control group): a H&E-stained sections showing normal stratified epithelium of epidermal (SE) and dermal (CT) layers with normal hair follicles (K) and thin keratin layer (curved arrow). b Immunostained sections showing −ve skin reaction. Photomicrographs from Group II (subcutaneous group): c H&E-stained showing hepatocyte-like cells (arrow) at the base of a hair follicle. d Stained sections with AFP showing +ve immunostaining cells (arrow) detected at the root of hair follicles. e Stained sections with CK19 showing +ve immunostaining cells (arrow) detected at the shaft of hair follicles (× 200)
