Maternal psychosocial stress during pregnancy and placenta weight: evidence from a national cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
To study in a large-scale cohort with prospective data the associations between psychosocial stress during pregnancy and placenta weight at birth. Animal data suggest that the placenta is involved in stress-related fetal programming.; We defined a priori

The Placenta Harbors a Unique Microbiome

open access: yesScience Translational Medicine, 2014
Metagenomic approaches demonstrate that the human placenta is not sterile but harbors a unique microbiome. Bacteria in Healthy Placentas Contrary to the prevailing idea of a “sterile” intrauterine environment, Aagaard and coauthors demonstrated the ...

Characterization of an organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP-B) in human placenta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs) are a family of multispecific carriers that mediate the sodium-independent transport of steroid hormone and conjugates, drugs, and numerous anionic endogenous substrates.

Protocol to derive human trophoblast stem cells directly from primed pluripotent stem cells

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Human trophoblast stem cells (hTSCs) are useful for studying human placenta development and diseases, but primed human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) routinely cultured in most laboratories do not support hTSC derivation.

SARS-CoV2 vertical transmission with adverse effects on the newborn revealed through integrated immunohistochemical, electron microscopy and molecular analyses of Placenta

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2020
Background . The occurrence of trans-placental transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection remains highly debated. Placental positivity for SARS-CoV-2 has been reported in selected cases, but infection or virus-

A new histochemical method using human placenta alkaline phosphatase for demonstrating concanavalin A binding sites on cell surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
Human placenta alkaline phosphatase (HP-ALP), a glycoprotein, was stained histochemically for the purpose of examining the concanavalin A (Con A) binding sites on the cell surface. HP-ALP was bound to the cell surface by Con A.
