PLACENTAL PATHOLOGIES. “We could show that reduced Syncytin-1 expression in placental syndromes was due to an epigenetic hypermethylation of the entire promoter region of ERVW-1. We propose that a promoter hypermethylation occurs in these pathological placentae due to the fact that DNA-methyltransferases, which are responsible for the setting of these epigenetic marks, are overexpressed.”
