FIG. 7.

Identification of epithelial BrdU⁺ cells and location of LRSC on PPD1. (A) Epithelial BrdU⁺ cells in the luminal epithelium (red arrow) and (B) LRSC (white arrow) were detected within 6 h after parturition. (C) PPD1 endometrium was double immunostained with BrdU (red) and cytokeratin (green) to visualize LRSC in proximity to the luminal epithelium (white arrow). (D) Percentage of LRSC beneath the luminal epithelium (within one-cell diameter). Data are expressed as mean±SEM, n=3 per group. *P<0.05. Scale bar: 20 μm.
