Cell type and cell signaling innovations underlying mammalian pregnancy
2024-05-02
Abstract excerpt
How fetal and maternal cell types have co-evolved to enable mammalian placentation poses a unique evolutionary puzzle. Here, we present a multi-species atlas integrating single-cell transcriptomes from six species bracketing therian mammal diversity. We find that invasive trophoblasts share a gene-expression signature across eutherians, and evidence that endocrine decidual cells evolved stepwise from an immunomodu...
