Localization of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein and endometrial beta-lactoglobulin in cultured decidual and chorionic villus cells.
Immunofluorescence staining was used to localize two 'endometrial' proteins, insulin-like growth factor-binding protein and human beta-lactoglobulin homologue, in cultured cells of chorionic villi and decidua. Both cultured cell types were positive for each protein. These results indicate that immunohistochemical detection of these two proteins cannot be used to distinguish between cultured chorionic villus and decidual cells.
