Abstract:
:Pregnancy-associated placental protein-A (PAPP-A), first isolated from maternal serum, has been identified as a metalloprotease cleaving insulin-like growth factor binding protein-4 (IGFBP-4). The source of PAPP-A during pregnancy is unclear. We therefore investigated PAPP-A expression during in vitro human villous cytotrophoblast cell (CT) differentiation into syncytiotrophoblast (ST). CT were isolated from normal first trimester, second trimester and term placentae (n=10) and cultured to form ST. PAPP-A mRNA was quantified by real-time PCR, and PAPP-A protein expression was studied by immunocytochemistry and TRACE technology with specific monoclonal antibodies. PAPP-A mRNA expression in total placental extracts increased during the course of pregnancy. PAPP-A protein was detected in the cytoplasm of both CT and ST. ST formation in vitro was associated with a 19-fold increase in PAPP-A mRNA expression and an 8-fold increase in PAPP-A secretion into the culture medium. No significant difference in PAPP-A production was observed between cultured cells isolated from early and term placentae. In conclusion, PAPP-A production in vitro, is associated to the differentiation of villous cytotrophoblast cells into syncytiotrophoblast, independently of the age of gestation.
