Tumors can escape immunity through multiple mechanisms, one of which is by enforcing a
state of unresponsiveness of the tumor vasculature to inflammatory cytokines. This results in …

To establish a functional placenta, its development needs adequate trophoblastic
invasiveness. The intricate and complex morphological and molecular aspects regulating …

Dysfunction of decidual macrophages (DMs) is considered a critical event in the
pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia (PE). T cell immunoglobulin mucin 3 (Tim-3) is an important …

Problem To study the mechanisms of placenta function and the role of extracellular vesicles
(EV s) in pregnancy, it is necessary to develop an ex vivo system that retains placental …

Evidence is accumulating that pattern recognition receptor (PRR) C‐type lectins (CTL) play
essential roles in recognition of pathogens. TcCTL14 (accession no. TC00871) contains the …

Objective Galectins are known for their immunomodulatory functions in placentas. They are
associated with pregnancy disorders such as preeclampsia, HELLP-Syndrome and …

Pregnancies carried by women with chronic hypertension are at increased risk of
superimposed preeclampsia, but the placental pathways involved in disease progression …

Decidualization is considered a distinctive feature of eutherian pregnancy, and has
appeared during evolution along with the development of invasive forms of placentation, as …

C-type lectin S group (CTL-S) plays a variety of roles in invertebrate including pathogen
recognition and activation of immune responses. Previous studies have shown that CTL-S …

Contents A placenta is defined as structural approximation of maternal and foetal tissues to
perform physiological exchange. Associated processes of differentiation and the …
