The implantation process involves complex and synchronized molecular and cellular events
between the uterus and the implanting embryo. These events are regulated by paracrine
and autocrine factors. Trophoblast invasion and migration through the uterine wall is

Abstract
The implantation process involves complex and synchronized molecular and cellular events between the uterus and the implanting embryo. These events are regulated by paracrine and autocrine factors. Trophoblast invasion and migration through the uterine wall is mediated by molecular and cellular interactions, controlled by the trophoblast and the maternal microenvironment. This review is focused on the molecular constituents of the human trophoblast, their actions and interactions, including interrelations with the uterine endometrium.
