Pregnancy specific beta1-glycoprotein--a product of the syncytiotrophoblast.
Pregnancy specific beta1-glycoprotein (PSbetaG) has been identified in vitro in trophoblast cultures and in vivo, using transmission electron microscopy, in the syncytiotrophoblast, PSbetaG may, like other pregnancy proteins, have immunosuppressive properties.
