Functional HLA-C expressing trophoblast spheroids as a model to study placental–maternal immune interactions during human implantation

Abstract excerpt

In healthy couples over half of the conceptions result in failed pregnancy and around 30% of them occur during implantation defining it as a rate-limiting step for the success of native and in vitro fertilization. The understanding of the factors regulating each step of implantation and immune recognition is critical for the pregnancy outcome. Creation of 3D-cell culture models, such as spheroids and organoids,...
