Trophoblast survival signaling during human placentation requires HIF-induced transcription of HSP70
2016-03-15
Abstract excerpt
Survival of trophoblast cells in the low oxygen environment of human placentation requires metalloproteinase-mediated shedding of HBEGF and downstream signaling. A matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) antibody array and quantitative RT-PCR revealed upregulation of MMP2 post-transcriptionally in human first trimester HTR-8/SVneo trophoblast cells and placental explants exposed to 2% O 2 . Specific MMP inhibitors establi...
