Epigenetic Control of Gene Expression in the Placental Trophoblast

This study examined the DNA methylation profile of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in the placental villous trophoblast in first, second trimester and healthy term placentas. Syncytiotrophoblast DNA revealed a heterogeneous methylation pattern in the first trimester eNOS proximal promoter a...
