Proteomic analysis of apical microvillous membranes of syncytiotrophoblast cells reveals a high degree of similarity with lipid rafts
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2005-11)
Brush borders (microvilli) are cell membrane specialized structures that function mainly as high-throughput absortive/secretory areas. It has been well-established that brush borders are particularly rich in membrane lipids ...
Distinct Lipid Rafts in Subdomains from Human Placental Apical Syncytiotrophoblast Membranes
(SPRINGER, 2008-08)
We report on the characteristics of raft domains in the apical membrane from human placental syncytiotrophoblast (hSTB), an epithelium responsible for maternal-fetal exchange. Previously, we described two isolated fractions ...
Calcium Transport and Local Pool Regulate Polycystin-2 (TRPP2) Function in Human Syncytiotrophoblast
(Cell Press, 2013-07-16)
Polycystin-2 (PC2, TRPP2) is a Ca2+ -permeable, nonselective cation channel implicated in Ca2+ transport and epithelial cell signaling. Although PC2 may contribute to Ca2+ transport in human term placenta, the regulatory ...
The involvement of annexin A1 in human placental response to maternal Zika virus infection
(2020-07-01)
The association of Zika virus infection (ZIKV) with congenital malformation and neurological sequelae brought a significant global concern. Recent studies have shown that maternal viral infection leads to inflammation in ...

Placentation in the rock cavy, Kerodon rupestris (Wied)
(W B Saunders Co Ltd, 2006-01-01)
Rock cavies are rodents found in the semi-arid caatinga of Brazil. We studied the structure of the rock cavy placenta by light and transmission electron microscopy. The exchange area of the labyrinth was organized in lobes ...

Evidence for insulin-mediated control of AQP9 expression in human placenta
(Elsevier, 2011-12)
The AQP9 gene contains a negative insulin response element, suggesting that it may be modulated by insulin. Previously, we reported AQP9 overexpression in preeclamptic placentas but a lack of functionality of AQP9 in water ...
Changes in apoptosis and Bcl-2 expression in human hyperglycemic, term placental trophoblast
(Elsevier B.V., 2006-08-01)
Apoptosis and its associated regulatory mechanisms are physiological events crucial to the maintenance of placental homeostasis; imbalance of these processes, however, such as occurs under various pathological conditions, ...
