abstract：:It has been demonstrated immunohistologically using cryostat sections that the lectins PHA and Con A bind to human placentae. Both lectins stain trophoblastic basement membrane (TBM), perivascular tissue and stroma. No staining of trophoblasts was observed. It has been shown by blocking experiments that the lectin bin...
