I am performing macrophage staining in the oral mucosa using an IFA protocol. There are oval-shaped structures on my scans that have background stain/autoflorescence. After doing some research, I found they are either cross-sections of skeletal muscle or adipose tissue. They sometimes appear ordered and clumped like they are skeletal muscle cross-sections, while other times they are more sporadic as if they would be adipose tissue. I am having difficulty identifying which is which. Do both tissue types usually autofloresce? If so, how can I differentiate between them while looking at my scans? Thank you!
