  • Title: Synthesis of placental proteins by the human placenta perfused in vitro. Preliminary report.
    Author: Bersinger NA, Schneider H, Keller PJ.
    Journal: Gynecol Obstet Invest; 1986; 22(1):47-51. PubMed ID: 2427389.
    Abstract:
    Fresh human placental tissue from deliveries at term was perfused in closed circulation on both the maternal and fetal side. At given times during the 4-hour perfusion period, the amount of human chorionic gonadotropin, human placental lactogen, pregnancy-specific beta 1-glycoprotein and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A was determined in the perfusing buffer. These placental proteins were also quantified in the placental tissue before and after perfusion. Calculations showed that all placentae (n = 3) were able to synthesize all 4 proteins tested.
