Leptin–cholesterol crosstalk in pregnancy: Mechanistic implications for placental function and cardiometabolic programming

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pregnancy requires the coordinated maternal reorganization of lipid and endocrine pathways to sustain fetal growth and anticipate neonatal nutrition. Leptin, produced by adipose tissue and the placenta, acts as an integrative signal linking maternal energy status with trophoblast function and vascular adaptation, while cholesterol provides ...

Early‐stage 2K1C renovascular hypertension does not increase global MHC‐II or F4/80 abundance in the non‐clipped kidney but reveals focal F4/80+ induction

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The two‐kidney, one‐clip (2K1C) model produces renovascular hypertension. The effects on the clipped kidney (CK) are well described, while the non‐clipped kidney (NCK) is used as a model to evaluate the effects of high blood pressure. Although most of these effects have been described at later stages of 2K1C hypertension, it remains unclear ...

Born early, age fast: Consequences of premature birth on chronic disease and accelerated ageing

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend ELGANs are exposed to several postnatal pro‐oxidant stressors, including ambient and supplemental oxygen, mechanical ventilation, infections, hyperalimentation, excessive glucocorticoids and intermittent hypoxia. Since endogenous antioxidant defences are underdeveloped, this imbalance promotes oxidative stress and inflammation ...

Glucocorticoids modulate drug transporter function in human fetal brain endothelial cells

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend P‐glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein are the most prominent drug transporters at the fetal blood–brain barrier. We isolated primary human fetal brain endothelial cells from early and mid‐gestation cerebral microvessels and exposed them to glucocorticoids cortisol and dexamethasone in vitro.

Virus‐specific alterations in placental structure and transporter expression following maternal arbovirus infection

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Arboviruses induce virus‐specific alterations in placental structure and functional markers. Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) exposure was associated with reduced syncytiotrophoblast and syncytial knot areas, increased cytotrophoblast proliferation (Ki‐67) and thyroid transporter (MCT8) expression, reduced protective (P‐gp and BCRP ...
