Abstract

The orphan nuclear receptor ERRβ is expressed in undifferentiated trophoblast stem cell lines and extraembryonic ectoderm, and genetic ablation of ERRβ results in abnormal trophoblast proliferation and precocious differentiation toward the giant cell lineage. Here, we show that the synthetic estrogen diethylstilbestrol (DES) promotes coactivator release from ERRβ and inhibits its transcriptional activity. Strikingly, treatment of trophoblast stem cells with DES led to their differentiation toward the polyploid giant cell lineage. In addition, DES-treated pregnant mice exhibited abnormal early placenta development associated with an overabundance of trophoblast giant cells and an absence of diploid trophoblast. These results define a novel pathway for DES action and provide evidence for steroidlike control of trophoblast development.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
