Abstract

Establishment of viviparity in mammals evolved through not only the long-term retainment of the fetus within the maternal uterus but differentiation and expansion of cell layers to form functional membranes to exchange O₂/CO₂ and nutrients between the placenta and maternal circulations. Development of a fetal placental vascular circulation to interact with the maternal uterus is critical to the survival of all species. However, the fascination with the mammalian placenta is the robust variation in types, form, attachment, invasiveness, structure, cell differentiation, endocrine function, and regulation of the maternal immune system. Despite the obvious role of the placenta to support fetal development, mammals have evolved multiple strategies to give live birth at term. The placenta and the maternal-fetal interface during pregnancy can be quite simple to very complex. Professor E.C. Amoroso contributed greatly to the study of comparative placentation in animals. His paper "Placentation" in Marshall's Physiology of Reproduction published in 1952 remains the standard for comparative placental anatomy today. The present volume on "Mammalian Placentation" brings together current reviews for leading experts to diversity of placentation in a number of mammalian species. Chapters will discuss viviparity, blastocyst formation, and placentation in the cow, pig, horse, mouse, dog, primate, human, elephant, and marsupials.

哺乳动物胎盘:致敬E.C.阿莫罗索对胎盘发育的贡献。

哺乳动物的胎生能力的建立不仅通过胎儿在母体子宫内的长期保留，而且通过细胞层的分化和扩增形成功能膜，在胎盘和母体循环之间交换O2/CO2和营养物质。胎儿胎盘血管循环的发育与母体子宫的相互作用对所有物种的生存至关重要。然而，哺乳动物胎盘的魅力在于其在类型、形态、附着、侵入性、结构、细胞分化、内分泌功能和母体免疫系统调节方面的强大变化。尽管胎盘在支持胎儿发育方面发挥着明显的作用，但哺乳动物已经进化出多种策略来在足月分娩。在怀孕期间，胎盘和母胎界面可以很简单，也可以很复杂。E.C.阿莫罗索教授对动物胎盘的比较研究做出了巨大贡献。他的论文“胎盘”在马歇尔的生殖生理学发表于1952年，今天仍然是比较胎盘解剖的标准。目前的卷“哺乳动物胎盘”汇集了目前的审查领先的专家胎盘的多样性在一些哺乳动物物种。章节将讨论在奶牛，猪，马，老鼠，狗，灵长类动物，人类，大象和有袋动物的胎生，囊胚形成和胎盘。

期刊介绍： "Advances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology" presents critical reviews on all topical fields of normal and experimental anatomy including cell biology. The multi-perspective presentation of morphological aspects of basic biological phenomen in the human constitutes the main focus of the series. The contributions re-evaluate the latest findings and show ways for further research.
