Caption

Brightfield photomicrographs for Ahnak (panels A-E; brown color) or with Kdr (panels G-I; blue color). (A-F): Posterior, right; anterior, left. (A) Neural plate/late allantoic bud (LB) stage, allantois (al), yolk sac mesothelium (ysm), yolk sac blood islands (bi), mesodermal layer of the amnion (am). ac, amniotic cavity; m, nascent allantoic mesothelium; ps, primitive streak; x, exocoelomic cavity. (B) Chorionic ectoderm and mesoderm (both indicated collectively by 'ch'). (C) Arrow indicates where the allantois has retracted from its point of fusion with the chorion during fixation. epc, ectoplacental cone. (D) Nascent blood vessel (surrounding the asterisk). chl, chorionic labyrinth. (E) Chorio-allantoic mesoderm (arrow), distal allantoic region (al), nascent chorionic labyrinth (chl). (G-J): Conceptus in which chorionic disks were snipped away from the fetus at the level of the base of the allantois. (G) Low-magnification sagittal profile of the allantois (al), chorionic labyrinth (chl), basal zone (bz), and decidual cells (d). (H) High magnification view, syncytiotrophoblast cells (arrows). mb, maternal blood. (I) Syncytiotrophoblast (arrows). Scale bar in (J): 200 microns (A,E,I); 150 microns (B,C); 100 microns (D,H); 30 microns (F); 50 microns (J); 20 microns (G).
