Presents a collection of laboratory techniques for the study of the trophoblast and placental biology. This book provides readily reproducible protocols for studying trophoblast invasion, maternal immune cell responses to pregnancy, and the hormone producing capabilities of the placenta.
Placenta Methods and Protocols represents a collection of detailed methodologies used in contemporary placental research. Techniques presented in the text range from comprehensive descriptions of experimental animal models, animal and human placental organ and cell culture systems, and morphological, biochemical, and molecular strategies Placenta Methods and Protocols represents a collection of detailed methodologies used in contemporary placental research. Techniques presented in the text range from comprehensive descriptions of experimental animal models, animal and human placental organ and cell culture systems, and morphological, biochemical, and molecular strategies for assessing trophoblast/placental growth, differentation, and function.
