Fig 3. Vimentin staining of placentas, indicating the endothelial cells.

Fig 3

(a) Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stains the neighbor sections indicates the central cut surface of the placentas. (b) Immunohistochemistry staining of vimentin (red) was shown for placentas exposed to phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, n = 5) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS, n = 5). DAPI (blue) stands for counter-staining of nuclei. The bottom panel is the magnification of the inserts in top panel. (c) Quantitative measurements show the percentage of vimentin expression in PBS and LPS placentas. *p<0.05.
