Phenotypic Switch of Endovascular Trophoblasts in Decidual Vasculopathy with Implication for Preeclampsia and Other Pregnancy Complications.

Conclusion: Decidual vasculopathy at term contains the same CD56 positive extravillous endovascular trophoblasts seen with spiral artery remodeling in early pregnancy. CD56 may serve as a possible marker for decidual vasculopathy in the later stages of pregnancy. PMID: 32068473 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
