Neuregulin 1-mediated ErbB2/ErbB3 signalling protects human trophoblasts against apoptosis to preserve differentiation
1 Jan 2015
Abstract excerpt
During placentation, foetal trophoblasts invade deeply into maternal tissue to establish a foeto-maternal circulation. We have previously shown that extravillous trophoblast (EVT) lineage cells express ErbB2 and ErbB3, of which the potential as an oncogenic unit is well established. However, a physiological function of this receptor combination in humans remains a puzzling question. Here, we demonstrate...
