Immunohistochemical localization of Ang II (A–E), ACE (F–J), APA (K–N), and A-LAP (O) in human ovarian tissues displaying immunostaining with various intensities in association with (A) primordial follicles, (B, F, K) mature follicles, (C) luteal tissue from the early luteal phase, (D, G, L, O) luteal tissues from the midluteal phase, (E, H, M) luteal tissues from the late luteal phase, (I, N) luteal tissues at early pregnancy, and (J) corpus albicans. Po = primordial follicle; St = stroma of the ovarian cortex; Gr = granulosa cells; Th = theca cells; Ll = large luteal cells; Sl = small luteal cells; Pe = pericytes. Original magnification; ×200. Bar in (O) = 100 μm.

Immunohistochemical localization of AT1R (A–G), VEGF (H–M), and negative controls using mouse IgG (N) or rabbit IgG (O) in human ovarian tissues displaying immunostaining with various intensities in association with (A–C, H) primordial follicles, (B, I) primary follicles, (C, D, J, N) secondary/mature follicles, (E, K, O) luteal tissues from the midluteal phase, (F, L) luteal tissues from the late luteal phase, and (G, M) luteal tissues from the late luteal phase. Po = primordial follicle; Gr = granulosa cells; Th = theca cells; En = endothelial cells; Ll = large luteal cells; Sl = small luteal cells. Original magnification; ×200. Bar in (O) = 100 μm.
