Co-immunofluorescence analysis of FERMT2 (F2) with von Willebrand Factor (VWF) in human placental tissue. Representative images are shown from week (W) 14 of gestation. FERMT2 and VWF were co-expressed in developing endothelial cells, but FERMT2 was also highly detectable in stromal mesenchyme around the developing blood vessels (BV). IgG: mouse and rabbit immunoglobulins used in place of primary antisera. CT: cytotrophoblast. S: stromal mesenchyme. Nuclei were stained with DAPI. Scale bar = 50 μm
