Tissue engineering a fetal membrane [PDF]
, 2011 The aim of this study was to construct an artificial fetal membrane (FM) by combination of human amniotic epithelial stem cells (hAESCs) and a mechanically enhanced collagen scaffold containing encapsulated human amniotic stromal fibroblasts (hASFs ...

Standardized reporting of amnion and amnion/chorion allograft data for wound care
Health Science Reports, 2022 Background The favorable biological and mechanical properties of the most common components of the placenta, the amnion and chorion, have been explored for regenerative medical indications. The use of the combination of amnion and chorion has also become

The variation in transparency of amniotic membrane used in ocular surface regeneration [PDF]
, 2010 Background/aims: Scant consideration has been given to the variation in structure of the human amniotic membrane (AM) at source or to the significance such differences might have on its clinical transparency.

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).

The Potential of Amniotic Membrane/Amnion-Derived Cells for Regeneration of Various Tissues
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007 Regenerative medicine is a new field based on the use of stem cells to generate biological substitutes and improve tissue functions, restoring damaged tissue with high proliferability and differentiability. It is of interest as a potential alternative to

IL-33/ST2 axis of human amnion fibroblasts participates in inflammatory reactions at parturition
Molecular Medicine, 2023 Background Inflammation of the fetal membranes is an indispensable event of labor onset at both term and preterm birth. Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is known to participate in inflammation via ST2 (suppression of tumorigenicity 2) receptor as an inflammatory ...

Intra-uterine fetal demise caused by amniotic band syndrome after standard amniocentesis [PDF]
, 2000 The amniotic band syndrome represents a prime example of exogenous disruption of an otherwise normal feta I development. It may be a sequel of invasive diagnostic procedures such as amniocentesis or fetal blood sampling. A 38-year-old gravida II, para II

The chicken embryo and its micro environment during egg storage and early incubation [PDF]
, 2008 When egg storage periods are prolonged (>7 days), hatchability and chick quality declines. The reason for this decline has been investigated, but is still not completely understood.

Healing Mechanism of Ruptured Fetal Membrane
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Preterm premature rupture of membranes (pPROM) typically leads to spontaneous preterm birth within several days. In a few rare cases, however, amniotic fluid leakage ceases, amniotic fluid volume is restored, and pregnancy continues until term.
