Figure 2From: In-vitro effects of the antimicrobial peptide Ala8,13,18-magainin II amide on isolated human first trimester villous trophoblast cellsRepresentative microphotography of isolated villous trophoblast cells grown on collagen biomatrix. Isolated cells were allowed to attach to the collagen biomatrix and grow for 24 h (A, D), 48 h (B, E) and 96 h (C, F) with 1000 ng/ml AMA (D, E, F) and without AMA (A, B, C) in serum-free culture medium.
