From: Expression of Bcl-2 and p53 at the fetal-maternal interface of rhesus monkey
Immunohistochemical staining for Bcl-2 at implantation sites of the rhesus monkey. Bcl-2 staining is red, and nuclear counterstain blue. A, villous plancenta on D17. B, villous plancenta on D19. C, extravillous trophoblast cells in the basal plate of D17. D, villous plancenta on D28. E, villous plancenta on D34. F, villous plancenta on D34 under a higher magnification. G, the extravillous endovascular trophoblast cells; in the inset, the fetal origin of these cells was confirmed by anti-cytokeratin antibody (brown), and their position within the vascular wall was confirmed by anti-actin antibody staining (red). H, decidua. I, negative control. Vi, placental villi. ST, syncytiotrophoblast. CT, cytotrophoblast. Sc, stromal cells. Ge, glandular epithelium. Evc, extravillous cytotrophoblast. Scale bars represent 50 μm.
