The Liver X Receptor in Correlation with Other Nuclear Receptors in Spontaneous and Recurrent Abortions
Figure 4
Serial sections of LXR ((a), (b)), RXRα ((c), (d)), and PPARγ ((e), (f)) expression in decidua of placentas from regular pregnancies ((a), (c), (e)) and in placenta of miscarriage ((b), (d), (f)). All magnifications are 20x lens. Box plots represent the LXR, RXR, and PPAR expression in decidua of spontaneous abortion and control decidua derived from serial sections (g). The boxes display the range between the 25th and 75th percentile and the horizontal line indicates the median. The bars represent the 5th and 95th percentiles. Circles indicate values which are more than 1.5 times the box length. Asterisks indicate values which are more than 2 times the box length. Isotypic controls for the antibodies are shown in Figure 3.
