Control of extravillous trophoblast function by the eotaxins CCL11, CCL24 and CCL26

This study is the first to comprehensively examine the effects of the eotaxin group of chemokines on EVT functions and demonstrates that all the three eotaxins have the ability to regulate EVT functions critical to their role in vessel remodelling. This identifies a new role for the eotaxin group of chemokines during placentation.
