... to suggest that at least a fraction of the fetal cells in maternal blood are derived from the placenta. The aim of the present communication has been to extend these microarray gene expression studies with the primary aim to define one - or at most a few - relatively frequent fetal cell types in maternal...

... was used to determine the steady state levels of expression of calcium ATPase and the values from the trisomic fetuses were compared to those of 30 normal controls at 10–18 weeks. Calcium ATPase gene expression did not change significantly with gestation at 10–18 weeks. In trisomic fetuses...

... placental tissues. Methods: We collected placental tissues from pre-eclamptic (n = 16) and healthy pregnancies (n = 16). We used the quantitative real-time PCR method with a primer-probe system for determination of CD24 gene expression. Results: We measured CD24 concentrations of 18.94 ± 26.86 ng/µl...
