Human trophoblast invasion: new and unexpected routes and functions
Until recently, trophoblast invasion during human placentation was characterized by and restricted to invasion into uterine connective tissues and the uterine spiral arteries.

In preeclampsia (PE), impaired trophoblast proliferation and differentiation are thought to cause abnormal placentation and subsequent clinical manifestations of the disease, i.e., hypertension, proteinuria, and end-organ damage.

Protocol for culturing the endocrine junctional zone of the mouse placenta in serum-free medium
Summary: The lack of a suitable explant culture system restricts the study of factors secreted by the mouse placenta into maternal circulation. Here, we present a protocol for culturing the endocrine junctional zone of the mouse placenta, free from the ...

Abstract Breaking radial symmetry for anterior–posterior axis formation is one of the key developmental steps of vertebrate gastrulation and is established through a succession of transient domains defined by morphology or gene expression. Three such domains were interpreted recently in the rabbit to be part of a “three‐anchor‐point model” for axis ...

Dysfunctions of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)-regulated cell migration and invasion have been involved in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia (PE). However, the role of circRNAs in EMT of PE has not been widely investigated.

Background/Aims: It is well known that Plac1 is a placenta-specific gene; however, its spatiotemporal expression pattern and exact role at t h e mouse fetomaternal interface r e m a i n s unclear. Methods: In situ hybridization (ISH) was used to localize

Decidual Macrophages Are Significantly Increased in Spontaneous Miscarriages and Over-Express FasL [PDF]
Decidual macrophages (DM) are the second most abundant population in the fetal-maternal interface. Their role has been so far identified as being local immuno-modulators favoring the maternal tolerance to the fetus.

Hypertensive pregnancy disorder, an under‐recognized women specific risk factor for heart failure?
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy as a risk factor for heart failure. BMI, body mass index; CV, cardiovascular; CVD, cardiovascular disease; HELLP, haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet count. Abstract During pregnancy, the maternal cardiovascular (CV) system undergoes major haemodynamic alterations ensuring adequate placental perfusion ...

Abstract Objective Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are recognized to have a pivotal role in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, we assessed the vascular function of women with RPL and examined the association with each type of aPL.

Establishment and differentiation of long-term trophoblast organoid cultures from the human placenta
The human placenta is essential for successful reproduction. There is great variation in the anatomy and development of the placenta in different species, meaning that animal models provide limited information about human placental development and ...
