Obesity with GDM increases MERCs in the placenta. Proximity ligation assay (PLA) was performed to detect the MERCs level in the placenta. Green dots indicate the protein tethering of MFN1 with MFN2. The bar graph was the quantification data in Green PLA dots per area (n = 12).Scale bar, 50 μm. Student’s t-test were used to compare the control group with the Obesity with GDM group. *P<0.05, **P<0.01.
