...Ali Alhousseini; Felipe Vadillo-Ortega; Berenice Palacios-Gonzalez; Kevin R. Theis; Andrew D. Winters; Sonia S. Hassan; Noemi Meraz-Cruz Introduction: The existence of a placental microbiome would require a non-antagonistic relationship between potentially colonizing bacteria and trophoblasts...

... in trophoblasts, we examined the production of PlGF and sVEGFR1 from trophoblasts following stimulation with cytokines and TLR ligands. Methods: Villous tissues were obtained from healthy pregnant women who had had an artificial abortion. The trophoblasts were isolated from villous tissues. Subsequently...

... oxidative stress-mediated trophoblast dysfunction. Methods: Plasma and placenta samples were obtained from 106 women with PE and 106 women with normal pregnancy (NP). Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) and soluble LOX-1 levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunoassay. Placental LOX-1 expression...

...Roland A Pattillo; Robert O. Hussa Human malignant trophoblast cells (BeWo line) in culture were employed to investigate the early stimulation of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) secretion by 1 mM dibutyryl cyclic AMP and 1 mM theophylline (dbT). The earliest increase in secreted immunoreactive...

...J. Foldes; Tehila Kehaty; Jeanna Schwartz Morphology of human trophoblast culture has been studied in relation to certain conditions such as duration of the pregnancy, age of the culture, and strength of the trypsinization. ‘Multinucleated giant cells’ appear to be actually fortuitous transversal...

...D.A. Tutton; D.H. Carr Pre-implantation blastocysts or trophoblast, obtained from ectoplacental cones, were transferred to the right oviducts of both pregnant and nonpregnant mice. Blastocysts which remained within the oviductal lumen did not show evidence of further differentiation...

...C. Wich; S. Kausler; J. Dotsch; W. Rascher; I. Knerr Background/Aims: Pre-eclampsia, a major cause of perinatal morbidity, is characterized by alterations in placental oxygen availability and trophoblast differentiation. We investigated how different levels of hypoxia alter the expression...

...Emiko Abe; Keiichi Matsubara; Keizo Oka; Yasuki Kusanagi; Masaharu Ito In normal pregnancy, trophoblast (TR) invasion plays a crucial role in remodeling the spiral arteries to develop uteroplacental circulation. Disruption of this invasion is associated with deficient uteroplacental circulation...

... potential, which allows them to implant almost anywhere except in the endometrium because it protects itself from implantation. Human implantation is thus only possible during a limited period of time known as the implantation window. This mini review stresses the importance of studying trophoblast invasion...

...Li-zhou Sun; Na-na Yang; Wei De; Yun-shan Xiao Aims: To identify differential trophoblastic proteins associated with preeclampsia (PE) by proteomic analysis. Methods: We isolated and purified placental trophoblasts from normotensive pregnant women and patients with PE by a continuous Percoll...

...K. Polgar; J.A. Hill Aim: The purpose of this study was to identify the white blood cell populations responsible for Th1 immunity to trophoblast as evidenced in our in vitro assays following trophoblast activation and the timing of this response. Study Design: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells...
