Gestational Dynamics of Hofbauer Cells in the Human Placenta: Distribution, Morphology, and Immunophenotype [PDF]
Background: Hofbauer cells (HBCs) are the only immunocompetent cells within the stroma of chorionic villi and play a key role in immune regulation and placental development throughout gestation.

This magnificent treatise on the human placenta is a definitive work on the normal structure of that vital and often-neglected organ. The usual book, like a bottle of wine, is soon finished, leaving only more or less pleasant memories. This book, however, large in size and broad in scope, is more like a whole wine cellar—to be read and enjoyed over a ...

Biological behaviors of muscarinic receptors in mesenchymal stem cells derived from human placenta and bone marrow [PDF]
Objective(s): Cells perform their functional activities by communicating with each other through endogenous substances and receptors. Post-translation, stem cells function properly in new host tissue by carrying specific cell surface receptors.
