Reduction of 5T4 signal in the EPL of the LPS-treated OB. (a–d) Images from the EPL of saline- (a,c) and LPS-treated (b,d) OBs stained with 5T4 (green). 5T4 signal is weaker in the lateral part of LPS-treated OB (b) compared to that of saline-treated OB (a) at Day 21, but not in the medial part (c,d). Scale bars, 100 μm. (e) The normalized 5T4 intensity in the EPL is significantly lower in the lateral part of the LPS-treated OB compared to that of the saline-treated OB. No difference is found in the medial part. Statistical analyses were performed with Mann-Whitney U-test (Mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05, compared to saline-treated control).
