Results
Specimen 1D/E,F: embryonic day 5.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS8: embryo Absent 1F , 1D/E
Specimen 1D/E maternal: postnatal adult (more )
Note: Pregnant uterus at 5.5 days of gestation.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: decidua Strong Regionally restricted 1D/E Intense expression was observed in maternal cells in the area of the decidual reaction surrounding the egg cylinder.
TS28: uterus stroma Absent 1D/E The uterine stroma further away from the implantation site was absent.
Specimen 2D/E,F: embryonic day 6.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS8: embryo Absent 2D/E , 2F
Specimen 2D/E maternal: postnatal adult (more )
Note: Pregnant uterus at 6.5 days of gestation.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: decidua Present 2D/E Expression was the same as at E5.5.
Specimen 3D/E,F maternal: postnatal adult (more )
Note: Pregnant uterus at 7.5 days of gestation.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: decidua Present Regionally restricted 3D/E , 3F The intensity of the earlier signal had reduced considerably. Only a few positive cells were observed in the immediate vicinity of the embryo.
TS28: uterus stroma Absent 3D/E
Specimen not shown: postnatal adult (more )
Note: Non-pregnant uterus.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: uterus Absent
