Effect of daily treatment of BMP and SMAD2/3 pathway inhibitor A83–01 on terminal differentiation of chorionic girdle trophoblast cells from day 30 and day 31 conceptuses. Pure populations of chorionic girdle cells were treated daily for 3 days in the presence or absence of 100 ng/mL BMP4, 1 μM A83–01 inhibitor, or both. The total number of binucleated cells was quantified in 5 randomly selected fields for each treatment group; the depicted pooled data represent the mean (of means) + SEM for 3 individual conceptuses at either gestational day 30 or day 31. Data were analyzed by repeated measures by 2 factors followed by Tukey multiple-comparison test (*, P ≤ .05; **, P ≤ .01; ****, P ≤ .0001 relative to corresponding vehicle cells. ^, P ≤ .05; ^^^, P ≤ .001; ^^^^, P ≤ .0001 relative to corresponding 100 ng/mL BMP4-treated cells. ###, P ≤ .001 relative to corresponding 100 ng/mL BMP4 plus 1 μM inhibitor-treated cells.
