Abstract excerpt
The X-linked Plac1 gene is maternally expressed in trophoblast cells during placentation, and its disruption causes placental hyperplasia and intrauterine growth restriction. In contrast, Plac1 is also reported to be one of the upregulated genes in the hyperplastic placenta generated by nuclear transfer. However, the effect of overexpressed Plac1 on placental formation and function remained unaddressed. We...
