SARS-CoV-2 Delta and Omicron Variants alter Trophoblast Cell Fusion and Syncytiotrophoblast Dynamics: New Insights into Placental Vulnerability

2025-04-21

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Pregnancy constitutes an at-risk factor for severe COVID-19. Several clinical studies have previously suggested increased risks of adverse obstetrical outcomes and placental pathological changes in pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2. In this study, our goal was to assess the susceptibility of trophoblast to SARS-CoV-2 infection at early stage of pregnancy and its impact on trophobl...
