Abstract: Cytotrophoblast cells (CTB) and extravillous trophoblast cells (EVT) from 8 week to 12 week normal villous and deciduas were separated and collected. The total RNA of CTB and EVT were extracted respectively. The CTB and EVT gene chip hybridization and gene expression profiles data extraction were performed in Shanghai Biochip Limited Company. The differential expression gene between CTB and EVT were analyzed by computer. We found 1 318 differential expression genes (813 genes up-regulated and 505 genes down-regulated respectively) and queried their biological functions and classified categories according to the standard of Gene Ontoloty. This study would help us to reveal the mechanism of gene network regulation in EVT invasion in early embryo development.
