Results
Specimen 1A - E7.5: embryonic day 7.5 (more )
Note: wild type
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS11: ectoplacental cone Present Regionally restricted 1A E7.5 Expression is seen in diploid trophoblasts and forming spiral artery-associated trophoblast giant cells (SpA-TGCs).

Specimen 1A - E8.5: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Note: wild type
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: ectoplacental cone Present Regionally restricted 1A E8.5 Expression is seen in diploid trophoblasts and forming spiral artery-associated trophoblast giant cells (SpA-TGCs).

Specimen 1B +/+: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: spongiotrophoblast Strong Regionally restricted 1B , 1D , 1F Expression is seen in spiral artery-associated trophoblast giant cells (SpA-TGCs) associated with maternal blood vessels; glycogen trophoblasts (Gly-Ts); and diploid cells.
TS15: secondary trophoblast giant cell Absent 1B inset , 1B
TS15: labyrinthine zone Absent 1E , 1B This layer includes syncitiotrophoblasts (Syn-Ts) and sinusoidal trophoblast giant cells (S-TGCs); they lack expression.

Specimen 1C -/-: embryonic day 9.5; Prdm1tm2Rob/Prdm1tm2Rob (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: labyrinthine zone Absent 1C The mutant placenta lacks expression.
TS15: spongiotrophoblast Absent 1C The mutant placenta lacks expression.
TS15: secondary trophoblast giant cell Absent 1C , 1C inset

Specimen 1G: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Note: Also PAS stained (pink).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: spongiotrophoblast Present Single cells 1G Expression is seen in glycogen trophoblasts (Gly-Ts).

Specimen 1H: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Note: Double labeled: red - Prdm1; brown - Mki67 (assay MGI:7439179).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: spongiotrophoblast Present Regionally restricted 1H , 1I Prdm1 expression is seen in 10-20% of the diploid cells in spongiotrophoblast layer; they are dividing. Prdm1 expression is also seen in the spiral artery-associated trophoblast giant cells (SpA-TGCs); they are not dividing.
TS15: labyrinthine zone Absent 1H
