Immunohistochemical staining of beclin1/LC-3I/II during the development of corpus luteum. Three time points (Day 1, 4, and 10 after pregnancy) were selected and represented as the developmental process of corpus luteum according to our previous reports. Ovarian sections of each point (A,D,G,J,M for Day 1; B,E,H,K for Day 4; C,F,I,L,O for Day 10) were immunostained for beclin1/LC-3I/II and counterstained with hematoxylin. The beclin1/LC-3I/II immunohistochemical signals appear brown, and the background counterstaining appears blue (A–F for LC-3I/II and G–L for Beclin1). Negative control remained unstained, lacking primary antibody instead of serum (M–O). CL, corpus luteum, bar = 100 μm.
