2021-08-12
Abstract excerpt
Steroidogenesis from cholesterol in placental trophoblasts is fundamentally involved in the establishment and maintenance of pregnancy. The transcription factor gene heart and neural crest derivatives expressed 1 (Hand1) promotes differentiation of mouse trophoblast giant cells.
