In the human placenta, the chorionic villus functions as a barrier. The villus is encased in a bilayer of trophoblast, with an inner cytotrophoblast (CT) layer, and an outer syncytiotrophoblast (ST) layer that is in direct contact with maternal blood7. CT cells have the capacity to fuse ...
The transfer of Igs through the placental barrier is a complex process that involves tissues (trophoblast, stroma of the trophoblastic villi, and capillaries), cells (monocytes and erythroblasts) and molecular components (at least six types of transfer receptors and biologically active components). ...
The primary function of the placenta is to act as a fetomaternal organ and a barrier with two of its components, the fetal placenta also termed as the "Chorion frondosum" and the maternal placenta termed as "Decidua basalis". The fetal placenta develops from the blastocyst and the maternal...
Overexpression of miR-181a-5p decreased endothelial barrier integrity and increased permeability in HUVECs TEER was measured to evaluate whether the overexpression of miR-181a-5p would affect endothelial barrier integrity (Fig. 9a). During the different timepoints, resistance was stable among the cont...
It is recognised as an organ that plays a vital role as a metabolic and a physical barrier in the foetoplacental unit; throughout fetal development it acts as the lungs, gut, kidneys, and liver of the fetus. When its two components, the fetal and the maternal one, successfully interact,...
We suggest that such active mechanisms are physiologic components of the placental barrier and might be defective in some cases of immunologic abortions. 展开 被引量: 93 年份: 1985 收藏 引用 批量引用 报错 分享 全部来源 求助全文 万方医学 NCBI NCBI Europe PMC ResearchGate 查看更多 相似文献 引证...
This suggested a lack of a systemic maternal inflammatory response to nanoparticle administration and minimal possibility of altered uptake of nanoparticles through the placental barrier. Quantitative assessment of nanoparticle biodistribution To quantitatively assess the biodistribution of PGMA and PGMA-PEI ...
and can serve as a selective barrier to some, but not all, pathogens and xenobiotics4. The executive summary of the Placental Origins of Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes: Potential Molecular Targets workshop recently concluded that most adverse pregnancy outcomes are rooted in placental dysfunction5. Despite...
