Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy and Chorionic Term Villi

Journal of Biological Research, 2003
The confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) is a relative new biomedical technology and represents a good alternative to the conventional optical microscopy in the observation of static and dynamics events. CLSM is able to produce 3-dimensional images

Cytogenetic and Molecular Findings in Hydrops‐Related Mirror Syndrome

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mirror syndrome is a rare, life‐threatening condition in which maternal fluid overload mirrors fetal hydrops. Data on genetic findings in affected pregnancies are limited. We compared genetic diagnoses in hydrops cases with and without mirror syndrome.

First-trimester diagnosis on chorionic villi obtained by direct vision technique

, 1984
An improved technique for direct vision chorionic biopsy that gives a clear view of the amniotic sac was developed. With this technique, used in 48 women prior to vacuum aspiration and in six cases for diagnosis (karyotyping or enzyme analysis), it was ...

Image4_Case report: Prenatal diagnosis of rare chromosome mosaicism: discordant results between chorionic villi and amniotic fluid samples.jpg

, 2023
Objective: We described a unique case of near-negative chromosome mosaicism in chorionic villi but complete monosomy X in amniotic fluid.Methods: Chorionic villus sampling and amniocentesis were performed separately in the first and second trimesters ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Role of matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 in ex vivo Trypanosoma cruzi infection of human placental chorionic villi [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Chagas' disease is caused by the haemophlagelated protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi). During congenital transmission the parasite breaks down the placental barrier.

Shaping Future Children, Sex Selection, and “Normal” Human Capacities

Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT If we think that parents have an obligation to have a healthy child then we need to know what counts as healthy, when male and female children are born with very different capacities. If we give up on the idea that our obligations to use technologies of genetic selection are discharged once we try to secure the birth of a healthy child, as ...
