Figure 2

Expression of 17βHSD2 mRNA in human mid-pregnancy and term placentas. Levels of 17βHSD2 mRNA were determined by real-time quantitative PCR in 35 placental tissues collected at the indicated gestation time. For each sample, 17βHSD2 expression level was normalized by a factor generated from the expression levels, in the same sample, of the three most stable housekeeping genes studied (YWHAZ-HPRT1, and GAPDH), using the geNorm software (for details, see Methods). Means ± SD are presented.
