Concentration of interferon-gamma and interleukin-10 in maternal serum and in maternal and fetal porcine placental extracts from different gestation periods was determined. Crossbred pigs’ placental .

“In the current study, we investigated the syncytiotrophoblast stress response within the human placenta from mothers with COVID-19 at birth,” Keuls said. “It’s important to note that direct placental ...

A breakthrough in the field, her lab has developed a computational model of the basic functional unit of the human placenta—the placentone. The team's research uncovered the anatomical ...

That includes human placentas, and a new study shows just how pervasive these tiny pieces of plastic can be – they were found in every single placenta tested. Though microplastics were ...

By acting as a conduit for this exchange between the maternal and fetal circulatory systems, the placenta establishes and sustains a complex physiological equilibrium. Beyond its immediate functions ...

The project proves that human ... made of mouse and rat cells, even though rats don’t have that particular organ. The team then took stem cells from rats and injected them into pig blastocysts.

"Rat organs have been produced in mice, and mouse organs have been produced in rats, but previous attempts to grow human organs in pigs have not succeeded," senior author Liangxue Lai said in a ...

Scientists inserted human stem cells in pig embryos that couldn't develop kidneys, then let these embryos gestate in sows for several weeks. The experiments resulted in kidneys partly made of ...
