The placenta is a key element during pregnancy for the health of the fetus and the mother, which justifies why placental studies are so important. One of the best models for placental studies is the primary cell culture of cytotrophoblast cells from human term placentas. In this chapter, we will detail firstly the isolation of cytotrophoblast cells, with tissue preparation, digestion, Percoll gradient, and cell freezing, and secondly the cell immunopurification and seeding.
胎盘在孕期对胎儿和母亲的健康起着关键作用,这也说明了胎盘研究为何如此重要。胎盘研究的最佳模型之一是来自足月人胎盘的细胞滋养层细胞原代培养。在本章中,我们将首先详细介绍细胞滋养层细胞的分离,包括组织制备、消化、Percoll梯度离心和细胞冻存,其次介绍细胞免疫纯化和接种。
