The discovery of a gene essential to early embryonic development sheds light on the preliminary stages of human placenta formation. A team led by scientists from the University of California San Diego ...

Introduction: The placenta is vital for fetal development, but its growth can become disordered in pregnancy complications, particularly at the maternal–fetal interface. Preeclampsia, a severe ...

We retrospectively analyzed 11 TACC specimens from the pathology archives of two Italian cancer reference centers. TROP-2 expression was assessed in all cases using immunohistochemistry.

Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) binds cytokine receptors and thereby suppresses cytokine signaling. Deletion of SOCS3 causes an embryonic lethality that is rescued by a tetraploid rescue ...

This study has preliminarily revealed the role of ACVR2A in trophoblast cell function, including its effects on migration, invasion, proliferation, and clonal formation, as well as its downstream ...
