Fetal growth restriction is associated with placental metabolic adaptations. In small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta (SGA), cholesterol receptors and steroidogenic enzymes are upregulated, enhancing steroidogenesis. NAD salvage pathway is also increased to support NADP+/NADPH requirements.

Generation of iPSC lines from primary human chorionic villi cells
Primary human chorionic villi (CV) cells were used to generate the iPSC line by retroviral transduction of the four Yamanaka-factors OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC. Pluripotency was confirmed both in vivo and in vitro.

Placenta percreta: Histoplathological overview of a rare case
Placenta percreta is a rare condition characterized by abnormal proliferation and penetration of the chorionic villi through the full thickness of myometrium and serosa. We present a case of 32-year-old female, G4P2L2A1 with low lying placenta.

Abstract figure legend We investigated how environmental hypoxia and genetic adaptation to high altitudes jointly impact the development of the placental exchange surface in ways that might protect fetal growth potential. We used wild‐derived, lab‐born North American deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) from low‐elevation and high‐elevation environments (

Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of a flow‐driven in vitro model of the human placental barrier designed to study transport processes during pregnancy. The model recreates key features of the maternal–fetal interface, enabling the investigation of how nutrients and therapeutic compounds cross the placental barrier under physiologically ...

ABSTRACT Background Caesarean scar ectopic pregnancy (CSEP) is defined by the implantation and development of a gestational sac inside a caesarean scar defect, but variations in classification systems and diagnostic criteria exist. Objectives This study aimed to systematically review the different criteria used in the medical literature to diagnose ...

Molecular Testing in Sickle Cell Disease: From Newborn Screening to Transfusion Care
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most frequent monogenic diseases worldwide and a highly heterogeneous and complex disease. SCD care carries several challenges. This includes early and accurate diagnosis as well as optimal red blood cell transfusion matching in this population carrying a high risk of alloimmunization.

Prenatal Diagnosis of Renal Anomalies Associated With a Novel Causative Variant in RAP1B Gene
A case of prenatal renal cystic disease and unilateral renal agenesis is reported. Molecular investigations including TRIO next‐generation sequencing analysis using the Clinical exome sequencing protocol identified the c.179G>T, p.(Gly60Val) “de novo” variant in a heterozygous state in the RAP1B gene.
