Endoplasmic reticulum stress is induced in the human placenta during labour.

abstract：:Placental villi of early and term human placentae were dissociated with trypsin and mixed cell cultures were established. The different cell types were identified and estimated over a 14-day culture period using antibodies to keratin and vimentin filaments and their capacity to phagocytose yeast. The three main cell t...
