[Histonet] marker for brain inflammation

Hello,

I'm wondering if someone could suggest a marker or stain that could  
help visualize inflammation.  I am working on a project where I  
inject a virus in the brain to introduce genes in neurons.  However,  
I want to make sure that the injection itself, or the neuronal  
infection is not causing a large degree of inflammation.  Could  
someone suggest a good way to visualize this?  I imagine some sort of  
immune marker will do, perhaps mF4/80?

thanks,

Caroline
