Human placentation : the characterization of novel molecular mechanisms involved in trophoblast invasion

For normal human placental development to occur, cytotrophoblasts located within implanting chorionic villi, differentiate into extravillous cytotrophoblasts that invade into and remodel the maternal stroma and blood vasculature. Extravillous cytotrophoblast invasion is in part regulated by prote...
