Morphogenesis of syncytiotrophoblast in vivo: an autoradiographic demonstration.
In an in vivo autoradiographic study of immature primate trophoblast, tritiated thymidine was first found only in nuclei of cytotrophoblast but after 22 hours, labeled nuclei appeared in syncytiotrophoblast as well. Hence syncytiotrophoblast of the monkey appears to originate by differentiation of cytotrophoblast.
