Establishment of a confluent monolayer model with human primary trophoblast cells: novel insights into placental glucose transport
29 Feb 2016
Abstract excerpt
STUDY HYPOTHESIS: Using optimized conditions, primary trophoblast cells isolated from human term placenta can develop a confluent monolayer in vitro, which morphologically and functionally resembles the microvilli structure found in vivo. STUDY FINDING: We report the successful establishment of a confluent human primary trophoblast monolayer using pre-coated polycarbonate inserts, where the integrity and...
