Intragastric administration of CCl4 (0.3 ml per 100 g of body weight) to female rats caused a marked injury of the placental tissue and particularly of the chorionic epithelium of the labyrinthine portion with the maximal development of dystrophic necrobiotic processes on the 14th-16th day of pregnancy (when the poison was administered 48 hours before the animal was sacrificed). There was noted an increase in the number of mitoses in the epithelial cells at all the periods, and a statistically significant enlargement of the nuclei and the nucleoli of the cytotrophoblastic cells on the 17th--18th day of the intrauterine fetal development. CCl4 administration led to the reduction in the content of histochemically detectable glycogen in the cytoplasm of the chorionic epithelium and to the fall in the amount of amylase-resistant glycoproteins, protein and RNA in dystrophically altered cells.

Oral squamous cell papilloma is a benign proliferation of the stratified squamous epithelium, associated with the human papillomavirus (HPV). The clinical manifestation includes papillary or verrucous exophytic mass. Complete excision of the lesion, including normal margins, followed by histopathological examination is the treatment of choice.

Visfatin is an adipokine involved in energy metabolism, insulin resistance, inflammation, and female reproduction. Due to limited data about its action in the human placenta, the aims of our studies included the analysis of visfatin expression and immunolocalization in trophoblast cell lines JEG-3 and BeWo as well as in human placentas from normal and pathological pregnancies. Moreover, we also checked the hormonal regulation of visfatin levels and the molecular mechanism of observed changes in JEG-3 cells.

Article Synopsis
- - The chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) supports vital functions for embryo development, including gas exchange and calcium transport, and differentiates into three layers during incubation days 11 to 15.
- - This article discusses RNASeq data from male and female CAMs collected after 11 and 15 days of incubation, which can be accessed via the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus under accession number GSE199780.
- - The analysis revealed sex-dependent gene expression differences in CAMs, affecting processes like lipid metabolism and bone formation, highlighting the importance of considering sex in experimental studies involving the CAM to avoid biased results.
Establishment of functional trophoblast organoids from trophoblast cells of bovine placenta.

Animal Science and Technology College, Beijing University of Agriculture, Beijing 102206, China. Electronic address:
The placenta is an organ that plays a vital role in successful pregnancies, and the failure of early placentation is a significant factor leading to abortion in ruminant species. However, the mechanisms involved in the development and differentiation of bovine placenta remain elusive due to the lack of suitable in vitro placental models. This study aimed to develop an effective method for generating the bovine functional trophoblast organoids by assembling bovine primary trophoblast cells (PBTCs) from the placenta or immortalized bovine placental trophoblast (BTCs) in a 3D culture system in vitro.

This study assessed morphometric traits of the ampulla of the oviducts in prepubertal gilts treated with chorionic gonadotropins. With the day of slaughter as D0, gilts were assigned to four treatments (n = 8 each): control (untreated), eCG (200 IU eCG on D3), eCG+hCG (1200 IU eCG on D6 plus 500 IU hCG on D3), and eCG+hCG+AI (the previous treatment plus artificial insemination on D1). Blood and ampullae samples were collected at slaughter.
