Changes in Proliferative Potential, Apoptosis and Bcl-2 Protein Expression in Cytotrophoblasts and Syncytiotrophoblast in Human Placenta over the Course of Pregnancy.
1 Jan 2000
Abstract excerpt
In order to evaluate placental trophoblast proliferation and apoptosis during pregnancy, we investigated proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expression, apoptosis and Bcl-2 protein expression in the human placenta using avidin/biotin immunoperoxidase method to examine PCNA and Bcl-2 protein expression, and TUNEL method to assess apoptosis. The appearance of apoptotic cells in very early term placental...
