Transcriptional profiling reveals altered biological characteristics of chorionic stem cells from women with gestational diabetes (2020)
Journal Article
Chen, L., Wang, C., Forsyth, N. R., & Wu, P. (2020). Transcriptional profiling reveals altered biological characteristics of chorionic stem cells from women with gestational diabetes. Stem Cell Research and Therapy, 11, Article 319. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13287-020-01828-y

Background
Gestational diabetes (GDM) is a common complication of pregnancy. The impact of pregnancy complications on placental function suggests that extraembryonic stem cells in the placenta may also be affected during pregnancy. Neonatal tissue-d...
