Steroidogenic compensation and lipid deficiency with enhanced NAD+ salvage in small‐for‐gestational‐age placenta

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2015
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.

Endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in the fetoplacental macrovasculature and microvasculature in pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Transforming growth factor (TGF)‐β2 and interleukin (IL)‐1β induced morphological and molecular changes consistent with endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndMT) in HUVECs isolated from both pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes (GDM) and non‐GDM pregnancies.

Placenta percreta: Histoplathological overview of a rare case

open access: yesJournal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences
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.

High‐elevation adaptation and gestational hypoxia jointly shape vascular development in a rodent placenta

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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 (

A primary cell‐based fluidic co‐culture model to investigate drug transport across the human placenta

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Caesarean Scar Ectopic Pregnancy in Early Gestation: A Scoping Review of Definitions and Diagnostic Approach

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, Volume 133, Issue 5, Page 888-899, April 2026.
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

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 295-304, April 2026.
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

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
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.
