Differentiation of first trimester human placental cytotrophoblast (CTB) from an anchorage-dependent
epithelial phenotype into the mesenchymal-like invasive extravillous trophoblast (…

The invasion of the uterine wall by extravillous trophoblast is acknowledged as a crucial
component of the establishment of pregnancy however, the only part of this process that has …

STUDY QUESTION Does the upregulation of the zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 2 (ZEB2)
transcription factor in human trophoblast cells lead to alterations in gene expression …

Background Mapping of allele-specific DNA methylation (ASM) can be a post-GWAS
strategy for localizing regulatory sequence polymorphisms (rSNPs). The advantages of this …

The mechanism by which human cytotrophoblast cells (CTB) differentiate into extravillous
trophoblast cells (EVT) is an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Polarized CTB, …

Field cancerization refers to areas of grossly normal epithelium that exhibit increased risk for
tumor occurrence. Unfortunately, elucidation of the locoregional changes that contribute to …

Calcipotriene is a topical vitamin D 3 analogue approved for the treatment of plaque and scalp
psoriasis. We report the case of a 2‐year‐old boy whose atopic dermatitis ( AD ) flared in …

The Stat6VT mouse model of atopic dermatitis (AD) is induced by T-cell-specific expression
of a constitutively active form of the protein signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (…

Platelet activating factor (PAF) has long been associated with acute edema and inflammatory
responses. PAF acts by binding to a specific G-protein coupled receptor (PAF-R, Ptafr). …

… Sonia DaSilva-Arnold discussed how there may be a disconnection between EVT genotype
and phenotype in abnormally invasive placenta. There is a need to acknowledge the role of …
