Human villous cytotrophoblast (CTB) cells to a syncytiotrophoblast (STB) phenotype

Schematic representation for the role of NR2F2 in the differentiation of human villous human villous cytotrophoblast (CTB) cells to a syncytiotrophoblast (STB) phenotype.

  • NR2F2 transactivates the TFAP2A promoter and potentiates the transactivation of the promoter by RARA and RXRA.
  • Activation of TFAP2A in turn modulates the expression of downstream genes involved in terminal STB cell differentiation.
