Detection of VP1 of JCPyV in prostate tissues by electron microscopy analysis. Tissue sections were treated using a standard immunogold-labeling protocol [32]. The presence of JCPyV in the tissue is indicated by the 15 nm gold particles. (a) The use of negative technical control was omitted for the incubation step with anti-JCPyV VP1 monoclonal antibody in the labeling protocol. No gold particles were detected in the control sample. (b, c) Tissue sections were treated using the standard labeling protocol. The thin arrowheads point to gold particles that indirectly indicate the presence of the viral VP1 protein
