Journal ArticleDOI
Epigenetics: definition, mechanisms and clinical perspective.
TL;DR: The complete array of human assisted reproductive technology (ART), starting from ovarian hormonal stimulation to embryo uterine transfer, could have a profound impact on the epigenetic state of human in vitro produced individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiological and molecular determinants of embryo implantation
Shuang Zhang,Hai-Yan Lin,Shuangbo Kong,Shumin Wang,Hongmei Wang,Haibin Wang,D. Randall Armant,D. Randall Armant +7 more
TL;DR: A better understanding of underlying mechanisms governing embryo implantation should generate new strategies to rectify implantation failure and improve pregnancy rates in women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracellular matrix composition and hypoxia regulate the expression of HLA-G and integrins in a human trophoblast cell line.
Brian A. Kilburn,Jun Wang,Zophia M. Duniec-Dmuchkowski,Richard Leach,Roberto Romero,D. Randall Armant +5 more
TL;DR: HTR-8/SVneo cells retain several important characteristics associated with primary cultures of first-trimester human cytotrophoblast cells, including their altered behavior in response to a changing maternal environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toll-like receptor 4: A potential link between “danger signals,” the innate immune system, and preeclampsia?
Yeon Mee Kim,Roberto Romero,Seo Young Oh,Chong Jai Kim,Brian A. Kilburn,D. Randall Armant,Jyh Kae Nien,Ricardo Gomez,Moshe Mazor,Shigeru Saito,Vikki M. Abrahams,Gil Mor +11 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that "danger signals" at the feto-maternal interface, which are recognized by trophoblasts through TLR-4, may play a key role in the creation of a local abnormal cytokine milieu.
Journal ArticleDOI
Blastocysts don’t go it alone. Extrinsic signals fine-tune the intrinsic developmental program of trophoblast cells
TL;DR: Biochemical events that regulate trophoblast adhesion to fibronectin are presented to illustrate a developmental strategy employed by the peri-implantation blastocyst.
