Cover design Reduced Tie receptor expression in placental trophoblasts of recurrent miscarriage. The cover of Molecular Human Reproduction shows the immunoreactivity for Tie-1 receptors (upper row) and Tie-2 receptors (lower row) in placental trophoblasts (Tr). The expression of both receptors was shown to be reduced in samples from recurrent miscarriage patients (left) compared with those from healthy controls (right). Thus Tie-1 and Tie-2 may have important roles in blood vessel development during early pregnancy. For further details, please see 276282.
