Expression of Endometrial CD98 in Implantation

A. Immunolocalization of ICAM-1 (HU5/3 mAb), CD147 (VJ1/9 mAb) and CD9 (VJ1/20 mAb) in human endometrium throughout the menstrual cycle. The micrographs show representative immunohistochemical stains of luminal epithelium in group 4 samples (day 20), corresponding to the implantation window. Images correspond to a 200× magnification. The charts plot expression based on semi-quantitative staining analysis throughout the menstrual cycle in three to five endometrial samples per group in epithelial glands (▪), luminar epithelium (♦) or stroma (▴). B. Immunolocalization of CD98 (anti-CD98 pAb) in human endometrium throughout the menstrual cycle. Micrographs depict the luminar epithelium in the 5 menstrual cycle groups in sequence: group1, = day 5, group 2 = day9, group 3 = day 15, group 4 = day 20, and group 5 = day 25. Images correspond to a 200× magnification. The chart plots semi-quantitative analysis of the stainings throughout the menstrual cycle in three to five endometrial samples per group as in A. ^[1]
