The mechanisms by which the placenta adapts to exogenous stimuli to create a stable and healthy environment for the growing fetus are not well known. Low oxygen tension and sub-optimal vitamin D levels influence placental function and both are associated with preeclampsia, a condition associated wit...

Previously we have shown that extravillous cytotrophoblast (EVT) outgrowth and migration on a collagen gel explant model were restricted by exposure to decidual natural killer cells (dNK). This study investigates the molecular causes behind this phenomenon. Genome wide DNA methylation of exposed and...

Tissue specific DNA methylation is present across many genomic elements, including large genomic regions. Most human tissues posses highly methylated genomes (>70%), but recent data has suggested the presence of partially methylated domains (PMDs) in some cell-lines. Placenta is a unique human tissu...

Preeclampsia is one of the leading causes of maternal death worldwide. While the root cause is still unknown, the underlying biology of the disorder is becoming more clear. We recently published a study showing large, significant differences in DNA methylation in 3rd trimester placental samples asso...

We investigated the DNA methylation and gene expression of 20 chorionic villi samples from early onset preeclampsia placentas to 20 gestational age matched controls. From this we were able to see a widespread disregulation in DNA methylation across a subset of genes in the genome. This may help to e...

ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 
As genome-scale DNA methylation sequencing technologies have improved it has become apparent that tissue-specific methylation can occur not only at promoters, enhancers, and CpG islands but also over larger genomic regions. In most human tissues, the vast majority of the genome is highly methylated ...
