The main aim of the study was to determine progranulin levels in amniotic and cervical fluid samples from pregnancies complicated by preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM) or preterm labor with intact membranes (PTL), with concomitant microbial ...

Enhancement of Opioid-Mediated Analgesia\ud by Ingestion of Amniotic Fluid:\ud Onset Latency and Duration [PDF]
Ingestion of placenta and amniotic fluid has been shown to enhance opioid-mediated analgesia produced by morphine injection, footshock, vaginal/cervical stimulation, and during late pregnancy in rats.

Assay for free secretory component and methods for monitoring organ rejection [PDF]
Methods of monitoring and detecting the early onset of organ injury incident rejection of a organ rejection in an animal are disclosed. The described methods are capable of distinguishing organ rejection injury from other organ tissue damage in the ...

Olfaction scaffolds the developing human from neonate to adolescent and beyond [PDF]
The impact of the olfactory sense is regularly apparent across development. The foetus is bathed in amniotic fluid that conveys the mother’s chemical ecology.

This study aims to evaluate the impact of the tryptophan‐derived metabolite indole‐3‐propionic acid (IPA) on lung development and autophagic flux. IPA alleviates hyperoxia‐induced alveolar arrest by promoting autophagosome‐lysosome fusion via inhibition of VAMP8 phosphorylation, which is suggestive of a promising therapeutic target of BPD.

The Analgesia-Enhancing Component of\ud Ingested Amniotic Fluid Does Not Affect\ud Nicotine-Induced Antinociception in\ud Naltrexone-Treated Rats [PDF]
Ingestion of amniotic fluid and placenta by rats has been shown to enhance opioid-mediated antinociception but not affect the nonopioid-mediated antinociception produced by aspirin, suggesting spccificity for opioid-mediated processes.

Ingested bovine amniotic fluid enhances morphine antinociception in rats [PDF]
Ingestion by rats of rat placenta or amniotic fluid enhances opioid-mediated, or partly opioid-mediated, antinociception produced by morphine injection, vaginal or cervical stimulation, late pregnancy, and foot shock.

Dynamics of the Mammalian Placental Metabolome in Placentogenesis and Embryonic Development
This study identifies three metabolic stages (E8.5, E9.5–10.5, E11.5–14.5) and two transition periods (E8.5–9.5, E10.5–11.5) in mouse placental development. NAD(H) emerges as a key dynamic metabolite that enhances embryonic growth through accelerated segmentation and increased proliferation of mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC)‐induced presomitic ...

Human Amniocytes Are Receptive to Chemically Induced Reprogramming to Pluripotency [PDF]
Restoring pluripotency using chemical compounds alone would be a major step forward in developing clinical-grade pluripotent stem cells, but this has not yet been reported in human cells.
