Whole genome analysis reveals aneuploidies in early pregnancy loss in the horse
Dataset
Shilton, C., Kahler, A., Davis, B., Crabtree, J., Crowhurst, J., McGladdery, A., …de Mestre, A. Whole genome analysis reveals aneuploidies in early pregnancy loss in the horse. [Dataset]. https://doi.org/10.34840/mnah-vv94

The first 8 weeks of pregnancy is a critical time, with the majority of pregnancy losses occurring during this period. Abnormal chromosome number (aneuploidy) is a common finding in human miscarriage, yet is rarely reported in domestic animals. Equin...

Modeling trophoblast differentiation using equine chorionic girdle vesicles
Journal Article
De Mestre, A. M., Bacon, S. J., Costa, C. C., Leadbeater, J. C., Noronha, L. E., Stewart, F., & Antczak, D. F. Modeling trophoblast differentiation using equine chorionic girdle vesicles. Placenta, 29(2), 158-169. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.placenta.2007.10.005

The chorionic girdle of the equine conceptus is comprised of specialized trophoblast cells which, at day 36-38 of equine pregnancy, gain an invasive phenotype and invade the endometrium to form endometrial cups. Studies of equine endometrial cups rem... Read More about Modeling trophoblast differentiation using equine chorionic girdle vesicles.
