Trophoblast Protein demonstrates a striking and consistent immunohistological reactivity around sites of trophoblastic invasion in the human placenta. Despite preliminary data suggesting that this antibody recognizes hyaluronic acid, it has not been possible to confirm the precise antigenic reactivity of this reagent. Although the immunohistological staining of placenta is abolished by treatment with hyaluronidase, it has not been possible to demonstrate binding of the antibody to purified hyaluronic acid.
