Ki-67, a cell proliferation and activity marker, is confined mostly in the nuclei of villous cytotrophoblasts of the human placenta. In this study, we examined the effect of fetal gender on the cytotrophoblast cell activity in human term placenta, with special regard to maternal serum and ...

The underlying mechanism is unknown and has been hypothesized to be immunologic or endocrinologic. During pregnancy, transplacental cellular exchange results in microchimerism (Mc). Mc can persist and is associated with protection from breast cancer. We sought to evaluate whether fetal Mc concentration...
