Figure 2

Cellular localization of CD36/FAT, FATP4, and FATP2 (stained in Alexa Fluor 555, red) in term human placenta at 63x magnification a) CD36/FAT (red) and alkaline phosphotase (AP) stained in Alexa Fluor 488 (green) b) FATP4 (red), AP (green) c) FATP2 (red), AP (green). d) control, DAPI nuclear staining (blue) only, primary antibodies omitted. MVM = microvillous membrane, apical surface of the syncytiotrophblast, stained with alkaline phosphatase. BPM = basal plasma membrane of the syncytiotrophoblast , not stained by alkaline phosphatase.
