Intersection of Regulatory Pathways Controlling Hemostasis and Hemochorial Placentation [rat II]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) is a prominent regulator of blood coagulation and an intriguing constituent of trophoblast cells situated at the maternal-fetal interface. The actions of TFPI extend beyond controlling hemostasis and directly affect trophoblast cell development. TFPI facilitates the differentiation of rat and human trophoblast stem cells into the invasive trophoblast/extravillous cell lineage and promotes intrauterine trophoblast invasion and trophoblast-guided uterine spiral artery remodeling at the maternal-fetal interface. Thus, TFPI is a conserved regulator of a fundamental event determining the efficacy of the hemochorial placenta.
