Use of Matrigel in culture affects cell phenotype and gene expression in the first trimester trophoblast cell line HTR8/SVneo.

abstract：:The expression pattern of MHC class I genes in trophoblast cells at the feto-maternal interface is thought to be the basis of the maintenance of pregnancy by protecting the fetus from maternal immune rejection. Transcription of classical HLA class I genes is low or undetectable in most trophoblast cells as well as in ...
