Caption (A) Summary of defects observed in E9.5 and E10.5 Usb1-/- placentas. (B) Histological images of adjacent sections from a representative E9.5 Usb1-/- placenta demonstrating largely normal development comparable to controls (n = 3). Dashed boxes indicate the LZ region shown at higher magnification in C. Although the Gcm1+ SynTII network appears comparable to controls, the MCT4+ network is drastically reduced. (D) Images of the embryonic component of the conceptuses shown in B and C. (E) Histological images of adjacent sections from a representative E10.5 Usb1-/- placenta displaying multiple LZ defects relative to controls (n = 3). Dashed boxes indicate the LZ region shown at higher magnification in F. In KO placentas, the Tfeb+ and MCT1+ SynTI region is reduced compared to controls. The SynTII layer/ chorioallantoic branching is nearly absent, as Gcm1 and MCT4 expression is sparse. Although some endothelial cells and fetal blood cells are detected among labyrinth trophoblasts, discrete fetal blood spaces are noticeably decreased. Maternal blood is observed adjacent to the LZ; however, integrated discrete maternal blood spaces are also reduced. Although MCT1 and MCT4 signals are found in close apposition, the extensive network of adjacent MCT1+ SynTI and MCT4+ SynTII cells observed in controls is absent. (G) Images of the embryonic component of the conceptuses shown in E and F. Scale bars: 500 m.
