HTR8/SVneo Cells Display Trophoblast Progenitor Cell-Like Characteristics Indicative of Self-Renewal, Repopulation Activity, and Expression of “Stemness-” Associated Transcription Factors

Figure 5

HTR8/SVneo spheroid cells repopulate chorionic villi of placental biopsies. HTR8/SVneo spheroids were confronted with placental biopsies derived from healthy pregnancies after elective, ceasarian section. After 48 h, HTR8/SVneo spheroid cells (green) have covered chorionic villi (endothelium of fetal capillaries within the villi are depicted in red).
