This study uses single-nucleus RNA sequencing and organoids to identify unique placental cell types and immune adaptations in Jamaican fruit bats, revealing species-specific gene programs and attenuated antiviral responses in trophoblasts.

This study compares syncytiotrophoblast gene expression in placental tissue and trophoblast organoids using snRNA-seq, identifying distinct nuclear subtypes and environmental influences on STB gene expression.
