Differential Spatiotemporal Patterns of Galectin Expression are a Hallmark of Endotheliochorial Placentation

摘要

ProblemGalectins influence the progress of pregnancy by regulating key processes associated with embryo-maternal cross talk, including angiogenesis and placentation. Galectin family members exert multiple roles in the context of hemochorial and epitheliochorial placentation; however, the galectin prolife in endotheliochorial placenta remains to be investigated.
