Immunofluorescent analysis showing strong cytoplasmic localization present in the syncytium layer for DEPTOR, whereas mTOR and rictor were expressed in both cytotrophoblasts cells and the syncytium layer with the staining being cytoplasmic. raptor revealed a cytoplasmic staining present in the syncytium layer. Control: immunofluorescent analysis of placental section in which the primary antibody has been omitted indicates specificity of the fluorescent signal detected for the mTOR signalling components. Magnification, ×40.
