Description
Trophoblasts. Fluorescence deconvolution micrograph of trophoblast cells, with PLAC1 (placenta-specific protein 1) expression, in placental tissue (chorionic villi). Trophoblasts are the first cells to differentiate from a fertilised egg (ovum), forming the outer layer of the blastocyst, an early stage of embryo formation. The trophoblast layer eventually forms the placenta. Cell nuclei (blue) have been highlighted with a DAPI stain.
