Characterization of primary models of human trophoblast
Two recently developed models, trophoblast organoids and trophoblast stem cells (TSCs), are useful tools to further the understanding of human placental development. Both differentiate from villous cytotrophoblast (VCT) to either extravillous trophoblast

Application of a JEG-3 organoid model to study HLA-G function in the trophoblast
The human placenta is a unique temporary organ with a mysterious immune tolerance. The formation of trophoblast organoids has advanced the study of placental development.

Human placenta and trophoblast development: key molecular mechanisms and model systems
Abnormal placentation is considered as an underlying cause of various pregnancy complications such as miscarriage, preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction, the latter increasing the risk for the development of severe disorders in later life such

Human trophoblast cells play important role in embryo-fetal development. However, trophoblast cells are sensitive to environmental carcinogens. Recently, we have discovered that BPDE inhibits trophoblast cell migration, invasion and proliferation, and ...

Significance Defective placentation, including impaired uterine spiral artery remodeling, leads to pregnancy disorders such as pregnancy loss, preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction, and preterm birth, all of which cause significant morbidity and ...

Trophoblast organoids as a model for maternal-fetal interactions during human placentation
The placenta is the extraembryonic organ that supports the fetus during intrauterine life. Although placental dysfunction results in major disorders of pregnancy with immediate and lifelong consequences for the mother and child, our knowledge of the ...

Regulation of Placental Development and Its Impact on Fetal Growth—New Insights From Mouse Models
The placenta is the chief regulator of nutrient supply to the growing embryo during gestation. As such, adequate placental function is instrumental for developmental progression throughout intrauterine development.

Capturing Human Trophoblast Development with Naïve Pluripotent Stem Cells In Vitro
Trophoblast are extra-embryonic cells that are essential to maintain pregnancy. Human trophoblasts arise from the morula as trophectoderm (TE), which, after implantation, differentiates into cytotrophoblast (CT), syncytiotrophoblast (ST), and ...
