The role of heat shock proteins in placental ischemic disease: A narrative review of the current literature

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Pre‐eclampsia, placental abruption, and fetal growth restriction (FGR) are collectively referred to as placental ischemic disease (PID). Heat shock proteins (HSPs), originally considered as a response to the heat shock, have a central role in regulating the cellular functions by quality controlling the newly synthesized proteins.

How does bovine milk‐based fortification alter the oxidant–antioxidant profile of breast milk in preterm infants?

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Fortification of breast milk (BM) is recommended to enhance protein, vitamin, and mineral content, supporting improved growth in preterm infants. However, the impact of fortification on the oxidant–antioxidant balance in BM has not been previously studied.

β3‐Adrenoceptor Agonism to Mimic the Biological Effects of Intrauterine Hypoxia: Taking Great Strides Toward a Pharmacological Artificial Placenta

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT At different stages of life, from embryonic to postnatal, varying oxygen concentrations modulate cellular gene expression by enhancing or repressing hypoxia‐inducible transcription factors. During embryonic/fetal life, these genes encode proteins involved in adapting to a low‐oxygen environment, including the induction of specific enzymes ...

Continuous positive airway pressure in delivery room in extremely preterm infants: A single‐center retrospective study in China

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
In extremely preterm infants, nasal continuous positive airway pressure in the delivery room is recommended at the beginning of respiratory support to maintain functional residual volume, improve lung compliance, and increase oxygenation. However, when used in developing nations, these high‐quality studies from developed nations revealed some different
