## An IgG-transporting Fc receptor expressed in the syncytiotrophoblast of human placenta During normal human pregnancy, maternal IgG crosses the placenta and provides passive immunity for the fetus. In so doing, IgG passes through two cellular barriers: the syncytiotrophoblast and the fetal capil

The syncytiotrophoblastic brush border of the human placenta forms the maternalfetal interface and is an important determinant of placental function. Electron micrographs of fresh brush border preparations isolated from first-trimester human placentas showed membrane vesicles, open-ended microvilli,
The apparent volume of neutrophils, as measured electronically with the Coulter counter, has been reported to increase upon treatment with chemotactic factors. The occurrence of a volume change was confirmed by forward angle light scattering and by isotopic measurements of intracellular water space
