Hypoxia-Induced Changes in the Bioactivity of Cytotrophoblast-Derived Exosomes
11 Nov 2013
Abstract excerpt
Migration of extravillous trophoblasts (EVT) into decidua and myometrium is a critical process in the conversion of maternal spiral arterioles and establishing placenta perfusion. EVT migration is affected by cell-to-cell communication and oxygen tension. While the release of exosomes from placental cells has been identified as a significant pathway in materno-fetal communication, the role of placental-derived...
