Scrib deletion in stroma impedes formation of avascular PDZ. a Representative images of implantation sites in Scribf/f, Scribf/fLtfcre/+, and Scribf/fPgrcre/+ mice on day 6. Arrowheads indicate weak implantation sites. b In situ hybridization of Bmp2 in Scribf/f, Scribf/fLtfcre/+, and Scribf/fPgrcre/+ mice implantation sites on day 6. Arrowheads indicate the location of blastocysts. Scale bar: 200 μm. c IF of Ki67 and E-cad in Scribf/f, Scribf/fLtfcre/+, and Scribf/fPgrcre/+ mice on day 6 implantation sites. Insides of dotted lines indicate PDZ, arrowheads indicate Ki67 positive stromal cells in PDZ area. Scale bar: 400 μm. d In situ hybridization of Ang-2 in Scribf/f, Scribf/fLtfcre/+, and Scribf/fPgrcre/+ mice implantation sites on day 6. Scale bar: 500 μm. e IF of ZO-1 and FLK-1 in day 6 implantation sites of Scribf/f, Scribf/fLtfcre/+, and Scribf/fPgrcre/+ mice show blood vessels invaded the PDZ in Scribf/fPgrcre/+ mice as indicated by arrows. Scale bar: 200 μm. Asterisks indicate the location of embryos. Each image is a representative of at least three independent experiments. M mesometrial pole, AM antimesometrial pole, le luminal epithelium, st stroma, bv blood vessels.
