From: Luteal activity of pregnant rats with hypo-and hyperthyroidism
Proliferative activity in the corpus luteum of pregnant rats of the control, hypothyroid and hyperthyroid groups at 10, 14 and 19 days of gestation. A) Immunohistochemical images of CDC-47 expression. Marked reduction of the number of cells with CDC-47 expression in the corpus luteum of the hypothyroid group compared to the control group at 10 and 14 days of gestation (Streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase, Harris hematoxylin, scale bar = 12 μm). B-D) Percentage of cells with CDC-47 (means ± SD) expression in histological sections of the corpus luteum. (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001).
