    Abstract

    Exosomes Derived from Placental Trophoblast Cells Regulate Endometrial Epithelial Receptivity in Dairy Cows during Pregnancy

    Scientists demonstrated that trophoblast-derived exosome proteins were one of the most critical elements in fetomaternal interaction, and their changes might act as a key signal in altering endometrial receptivity and provided a potential target for improving fertility.

    AbstractGraphical Abstract

    Comparison of the Cytokine Profile in Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Human Adipose, Umbilical Cord, and Placental Tissues

    MSCs were extracted from adipose, umbilical cord, and placental tissues. The surface marker expression, multilineage differentiation potential and cytokine secretion of these cells were compared.
