The labyrinthian fetoplacental capillary network is vital for proper nourishment of the developing embryo. Dysfunction of the maternal-fetal circulation is a primary cause of placental insufficiency. Here, we show that the spatial zonation of the murine placental labyrinth vasculature is controlled by flow-regulated epigenetic mechanisms. Spatiotemporal transcriptomic profiling identified a gradual change in the expression of epigenetic enzymes, including the de novo DNA methyltransferase …
