PPARγ/RXRα Heterodimers Control Human Trophoblast Invasion
2001-10-01
Abstract excerpt
The ligand-dependent nuclear receptors PPARγ and RXRα/β were recently determined to be essential for murine placental development and trophoblast differentiation. In the current study we examined the expression and role of the PPARγ/RXRα heterodimers in human invasive trophoblasts. We first report that in human first trimester placenta, PPARγ and RXRα are highly expressed in cytotrophoblasts at the feto-maternal i...
