Placental cross-sectional area measurements of tgε26 recipients of SCID bone marrow, homozygous tgε26 and control mice. Placental cross-sectional area measurements of NK cell–reconstituted tgε26 mice (NK ⁺) were larger by 28% at day 10, 27% at day 12, and 34% at day 14 of gestation as compared to gestational age-matched homozygous tgε26 mice (*P <0.01). Day 10, day 12, and day 14 placental cross-sectional area measurements from bone marrow–infused, nonreconstituted mice (NK⁻) were not statistically different than homozygous tgε26 placentae. Day 10 and day 12 placentae were measured at ×160 magnification, whereas day 14 placentae were measured at ×140 magnification.
