The Immunology of Syncytialized Trophoblast [PDF]
Multinucleate syncytialized trophoblast is found in three forms in the human placenta. In the earliest stages of pregnancy, it is seen at the invasive leading edge of the implanting embryo and has been called primitive trophoblast. In later pregnancy, it is represented by the immense, multinucleated layer covering the surface of placental villi and by ...

Objective: To assess whether interferon gamma (IFN-γ) secreted by decidual natural killer (dNK) cells at the maternal–fetal interface is involved in the apoptosis of trophoblast cells (trophoblasts) following Toxoplasma gondii infection.

Brucella abortus Infection of Placental Trophoblasts Triggers Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Mediated Cell Death and Fetal Loss via Type IV Secretion System-Dependent Activation of CHOP. [PDF]
Subversion of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function is a feature shared by multiple intracellular bacteria and viruses, and in many cases this disruption of cellular function activates pathways of the unfolded protein response (UPR).

Effects of Circulating and Local Uteroplacental Angiotensin II in Rat Pregnancy. [PDF]
The renin-angiotensin (Ang) system is important during placental development. Dysregulation of the renin-Ang system is important in preeclampsia (PE). Female rats transgenic for the human angiotensinogen gene crossed with males transgenic for the human ...
