Modelling preeclampsia: a comparative analysis of the common human trophoblast cell lines
4 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Preeclampsia remains a challenge without an effective therapy. Evidence supports targetability of soluble fms‐like tyrosine kinase‐1 (sFlt‐1) and soluble endoglin (sEng), which are released excessively from the placenta under ischemic and hypoxic stresses. We compared four trophoblast cell lines, BeWo, Jar, Jeg‐3, and HTR‐8/SVneo, in order to identify a suitable model for drug screening. Cultured...
