Abstract
A correlation between a transient CD15-positive endothelial phenotype and a physiological and pathological fetoplacental immaturity was demonstrated. Physiological and accelerated placental maturation was accompanied by a significant disappearance of CD15-positive endothelium. We propose that “immature” CD15+ endothelium is an important diagnostic marker of the physiological and pathological fetoplacental immaturity.
