Comparison of angiogenic, cytoprotective, and immunosuppressive properties of human amnion- and chorion-derived mesenchymal stem cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Although mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can be obtained from the fetal membrane (FM), little information is available regarding biological differences in MSCs derived from different layers of the FM or their therapeutic potential.

Electrospun Polycaprolactone (PCL)-Amnion Nanofibrous Membrane Promotes Nerve Regeneration and Prevents Fibrosis in a Rat Sciatic Nerve Transection Model

Frontiers in Surgery, 2022
Functional recovery after peripheral nerve injury repair is typically unsatisfactory. An anastomotically poor microenvironment and scarring at the repair site are important factors impeding nerve regeneration.

Single cell transcriptomic analysis of human amnion identifies cell-specific signatures associated with membrane rupture and parturition

Cell & Bioscience, 2022
Background The human amnion is an intrauterine tissue which is involved in the initiation of parturition. In-depth understanding of gene expression signatures of individual cell types in the amnion with respect to membrane rupture at parturition may help

Identification of a Feed-Forward Loop Between 15(S)-HETE and PGE2 in Human Amnion at Parturition

Journal of Lipid Research, 2022
Human parturition is associated with massive arachidonic acid (AA) mobilization in the amnion, indicating that large amounts of AA-derived eicosanoids are required for parturition. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesized from the cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway

Oral, nasal and pharyngeal exposure to lipopolysaccharide causes a fetal inflammatory response in sheep. [PDF]

, 2015
BackgroundA fetal inflammatory response (FIR) in sheep can be induced by intraamniotic or selective exposure of the fetal lung or gut to lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
