Immunohistochemical localisation of PG pathway proteins in the placenta. (A) H&E-stained control indicating structure of (i) placental villi, interspersed with maternal blood (MB), (ii) basal plate, containing extravillous trophoblasts (EVT) and decidual cells (DC). (B-K) Higher magnification images of (i) placental villi, indicating syncytiotrophoblasts (ST), vascular cells (VC) and villous macrophages (VM), (ii) basal plate. (K) Negative control without addition of primary antibody. Scale bar = 50 μm.
