Double immune-fluorescence labelling for SK3 (red) and smooth muscles actin or CD34 (green) in human non-pregnant (A and B) and pregnant (C and D) myometrium and appendiceal muscularis propria (E and F). interstitial Cajal-like cells (ICLC) displayed co-expression for SK3 and CD34 (yellow reaction product) in human non-pregnant myometrium (B) and appendiceal muscularis propria (F) (arrows), whereas pregnant myometrium lacked SK3 in ICLC and only vascular endothelium displayed co-expression for both SK3 and CD34 (arrow-head). DAPI nuclear labelling in blue. Also, note the lower cellular density in pregnant myometrium. Magnification × 600.
