From: Altered autophagic flux enhances inflammatory responses during inflammation-induced preterm labor

Expression of a2V is decreased and LC3B is increased in inflammation induced preterm labor.
Uterus shown in (A) and placenta in (B). LC3B stained in green; a2V stained in red. Nuclei stained with DAPI (blue) in merged images. N = 4–5 each group. Six sections per animal were analyzed. Original magnification: 200X. PBS, LPS and PGN+poly(I:C): intrauterine injections on day 14.5; MIF-C: subcutaneous DMSO control on day 14.5; MIF: subcutaneous mifepristone in DMSO on day 14.5.
