Distinct expression and localization of serine protease HtrA1 in human endometrium and first‐trimester placenta
27 Oct 2006
Abstract excerpt
Mammalian embryos cannot survive without the placenta. Development of the human placenta requires trophoblast proliferation, differentiation, and invasion as well as highly coordinated modulation of the maternal uterus. HtrA1 is a member of the recently identified mammalian HtrA (high temperature requirement factor A) serine protease family with a high level of expression in the placenta. In this study, we...
