Epigenetic Changes Regulating Epithelial–Mesenchymal Plasticity in Human Trophoblast Differentiation

Abstract excerpt

The phenotype of human placental extravillous trophoblast (EVT) at the end of pregnancy reflects both differentiation from villous cytotrophoblast (CTB) and later gestational changes, including loss of proliferative and invasive capacity. Invasion abnormalities are central to major obstetric pathologies, including placenta accreta spectrum, early onset preeclampsia, and fetal growth restriction. Characterization...
