Sca-1 identifies a trophoblast population with multipotent potential in the mid-gestation mouse placenta

Abstract Trophoblast stem (TS) cells in the mouse derive from the polar trophectoderm of the blastocyst and persist through early gestation (to E8.5) to support placental development. Further development and growth is proposed to rely on layer-restricted progenitor cells. Stem cell antigen (Sca) -1...
