Spatiotemporal expression of Il6st (Gp130) mRNA in the mouse uterus during early pregnancy. Signals (dark purple) are detected by an anti-sense probe (left). The sense probe (right) shows the background signal. Gp130 mRNA, which was almost undetectable at day 1 of pregnancy (D1), is expressed in the glandular epithelium (ge), but not in the luminal epithelium (le), before embryo implantation (D4), and subsequently is expressed in differentiating stromal cells and decidual cells (D5 and D8). Scale bar, 100 µm. le luminal epithelium, ge glandular epithelium, st stroma, em embryo, dec decidua.
