Placenta and Fetoplacental Junctional Zone of Humans and Guinea-pigs
The main cellular and syncytial structures of both placentas are listed together with the reported expression of the vasodilator factors and enzymes. Factors are underlined when present in both species; isolated factors expressed only in one of the two species are lateralized to the presenting species. When the whole panel of factors is described in one of the species, this is depicted by a blue arrow pointing to the respective structures. Note that in the human an equivalent for periarterial trophoblast is not known.
- fetal tissues - coloured blue and green
- maternal tissues - red and brown
- TB - trophoblasts
- CTB - cytotrophoblasts
- STB - syncytiotrophoblast
