The expression of Cx43 in chorionic villi and decidua collected from RPL women and control group. a, b The protein expression of Cx43 was measured by immunohistochemistry (magnification X400) and evaluated by IRS scores. The control group exhibited a higher level of Cx43 protein compared to the RPL group. c, d The Cx43 protein expression was assessed by Western Blot and the band intensity was evaluated. The protein level of Cx43 is significantly higher in the control group than that in the RPL group. e The expression of Cx43 mRNA was reduced in both villi and decidua from the RPL group and those from the control group. Data were presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD). *: P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***: P < 0.001
