Improvement of human chorionic villi cells in vitro culture has been obtained by supplementing the medium with 30% human fetal cord serum, instead of fetal calf serum. Expression of human chorionic gonadotropin, estrogen and progesterone receptors, laminin, laminin receptors, and type IV collagen has been studied on first subculture passages (4-7 weeks) by immunoperoxidase method. A minority of the cultured cells were positive for estrogen receptors, the majority were positive for progesterone receptors, while all cells were negative for human chorionic gonadotropin. Cultured cells showed variable positive immunostaining for basement membrane markers like laminin, and type IV collagen, and for laminin receptors. Detection of both progesterone receptors and laminin, or type IV collagen, excluded fibroblast contamination and could then be useful for quick identification of cultured trophoblast cells.
