Regulation of amniotic fluid volume: insights derived from amniotic fluid volume function curves. [PDF]

Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol, 2018
Recent advances in understanding the regulation of amniotic fluid volume (AFV) include that AFV is determined primarily by the rate of intramembranous absorption (IMA) of amniotic fluid across the amnion and into fetal blood. In turn, IMA rate is dependent on the concentrations of yet-to-be identified stimulator(s) and inhibitor(s) that are present in

Tanshinone IIA changed the amniotic fluid volume and regulated expression of AQP1 and AQP3 in amniotic epithelium cells: a promising drug treating abnormal amniotic fluid volume [PDF]

Molecular Medicine, 2023
Background Many studies have confirmed the association of aquaporins (AQPs) with abnormal amniotic fluid volume (AFV). In our previous experiments, we found that Tanshinone IIA was able to regulate the expression of AQP1 and AQP3.
