Epidermal Growth Factor Stimulation of Trophoblast Differentiation Requires MAPK11/14 (p38 MAP Kinase) Activation (2005)

Edward D. Johnstone, Colin P. Sibley, Bonnie Lowen, Larry J. Guilbert

Cultured human term villous cytotrophoblasts (CT) have been reported to be nonproliferating but differentiate when exposed to epidermal growth factor (EGF). Here we show that CT differentiate into...

The expression and localization of mRNA for colony-stimulating factor (CSF)-1 in human term placenta (1992)

Kanzaki, Hideharu, Yui, Jane, Iwai, Masazumi, Imai, Kimitoshi, Kariya, Masatoshi, Hatayama, Hiroshi, ...

A 4-kb mRNA for colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) was detected in normal human placenta at term by Northern blot analysis. In-situ hybridization revealed that the mRNA for CSF-1 was localized in...

Human Cytomegalovirus-Caused Damage to Placental Trophoblasts Mediated by Immediate-Early Gene-Induced Tumor Necrosis Factor-α

Chan, Gary, Hemmings, Denise G., Yurochko, Andrew D., Guilbert, Larry J.

Infection of the fetal epithelium (trophoblast) lining the villous placenta by human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) accompanies placental inflammations and fetal intrauterine growth restriction. However, the...
