Immunohistochemistry of placental tissue in GDM cases and control women. A shows the difference in positive lesions of NE and PR3 in placental tissue from women with GDM and the control group through mean and standard deviation of AOD in column chart. C shows the correlation of circulating NE/PR3 with local NE/PR3 AOD. B shows NE and PR3 biomarkers in GDM cases and control group revealed by HE and IHC staining. The first picture (from left to right) shows cells in control placental tissue (4X) to locate the positive position of IHC. Next to it, the brown spot was a positive site of NE or PR3 displayed in the control group by IHC picture 20X and 40X (indicated by arrows). GDM group is shown under the relevant control group. ***, P<0.001
