Matrotrophy and placentation in invertebrates: a new paradigm
Matrotrophy, the continuous extra-vitelline supply of nutrients from the parent to the progeny during gestation, is one of the masterpieces of nature, contributing to offspring fitness and often correlated with evolutionary diversification. The most elaborate form of matrotrophy-placentotrophy-is well known for its broad occurrence among vertebrates, but the comparative distribution and structu...
متن کاملUterine epithelial changes during placentation in the viviparous skink Eulamprus tympanum.
We used scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to describe the complete ontogeny of simple placentation and the development of both the yolk sac placentae and chorioallantoic placentae from nonreproductive through postparturition phases in the maternal uterine epithelium of the Australian skink, Eulamprus tympanum. We chose E. tympanum, a species with a si...
متن کاملImmunology of human implantation: from the invertebrates' point of view.
Pregnancies in outbred mammals may be regarded as successfully developed homografts. One of the hypotheses that attempts to answer the enigma of why the fetus is not rejected (fetal-maternal relationships are based on reciprocal expressions of foreign transplantation antigens) claims for the existence of possible evolutionary links between invertebrate allorecognition and mammalian implantation...
متن کاملECOLOGICAL IMMUNOLOGY Neuroendocrine-immune crosstalk in vertebrates and invertebrates: implications for host defence
1. Communication among cells, tissues and organ systems is essential for survival. Vertebrate and invertebrate animals rely primarily on three physiological systems for intra-organismal communication: the nervous, endocrine and immune systems. Rather than acting independently of one another, these systems communicate in an integrated fashion to coordinate suites of speciesappropriate physiologi...
متن کاملIFPA Meeting 2011 workshop report III: Placental immunology; epigenetic and microRNA-dependent gene regulation; comparative placentation; trophoblast differentiation; stem cells.
Workshops are an important part of the IFPA annual meeting as they allow for discussion of specialised topics. At IFPA meeting 2011 there were twelve themed workshops, five of which are summarized in this report. These workshops related to various aspects of placental biology: 1) immunology; 2) epigenetics; 3) comparative placentation; 4) trophoblast differentiation; 5) stem cells.
