| Researchers described the generation of trophoblast organoids using human trophoblast stem (TS) cells. Following treatment with three kinds of culture medium, TS cells form spherical organoids with a single outer layer of syncytiotrophoblast cells that displayed a barrier function.

|
| Scientists conducted a systematic drug screen using an epigenetic compound library to systematically investigate the epigenetic mechanism essential for syncytialization, and identified mixed lineage leukemia 1 (MLL1), a histone 3 lysine 4 methyltransferase, as a crucial regulator of trophoblast syncytialization.

| Investigators explored the functional restoration and mechanism of human umbilical cord MSC exosomes on busulfan-induced injury in GC-1 spg cells and ICR mouse testes. [Ecotoxicology And Environmental Safety] |

|
|
| The authors explored the potential application of human cord blood derived-multipotent stem cells to control donor alloreactive responses involved in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, which often results in acute graft-vs-host disease. [Transplantation And Cellular Therapy] |

|
| Researchers explored plasma proteins as potential diagnostic biomarkers for placenta accreta spectrum. Integrated transcriptome and proteomic analyses were conducted to establish a novel diagnostic approach. [Scientific Reports] |

| By analyzed a group of 230 women who went through pregnancy interruption and comparing those experiencing spontaneous early pregnancy loss (EPL) with a group of normal pregnant who underwent voluntary interruption. [Scientific Reports] |

|
| In vitro, human umbilical cord MSCs were cultured and induced to differentiate into neuron-like cells after they were pretreated with 150 μg/mL monosialoteterahexosyl ganglioside. [Experimental Cell Research] |

|
|
| Investigators evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of human umbilical cord-MSCs in C57BL/6 mice with diet-induced non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). At week 32, mice were randomized into two groups: phosphate-buffered saline and MSCs, which were injected into the tail vein. [Heliyon] |

|
| | | The authors systematically examine the most extensively researched MSC-derived EVs for treating osteoporosis (OP), delving not only into the molecular mechanisms of EV-based OP therapy but also conducting a comparative analysis of the strengths and limitations of EVs sourced from various cell origins.

|
| A research-technology firm has developed a new approach to help identify journal articles that originate from paper mills — companies that churn out fake or poor-quality studies and sell authorships. [Nature News] |
