Shifting Concepts of the Fetal-Maternal Interface: A Historical Perspective
2008, PlacentaCitation Excerpt :Later authors regularly quoted Turner as the originator of the idea that the decidua has a protective function against the eroding action of the placenta. However, in discussing the literature on this question, Haig [13] correctly made the point that there is no evidence that Turner (and we may add Huxley) considered the placenta as an invading tissue. The first clear evidence for invading properties of placental cells emerged from further studies on rodent placentation.
