Hematopoietic potential of mouse placenta with the application of placenta flushing

Several major vascular tissues, such as the aorta-gonad-mesonephros región (AGM), yolk sac, and fetal liver have been confirmed to possess hematopoietic function. Recently, the placenta has been demonstrated as another hematopoietic organ. However, it is not conclusive whether the placenta possesses...
