Understanding implantation window, a crucial phenomenon

Journal of Human Reproductive Sciences, 2012
Embryo implantation is a well-defined and precise process, in which various factors come into play one after the other. There is only a specific period of time during which implantation is possible i.e. "implantation window".

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

An update on pacemaking in the myometrium

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The spread of multiple electrical signals (panel A, blue‐to‐red indicates increasing electrical excitability) that are spatiotemporally distinct, yet in‐phase with the excitatory episode, determines action potential shape and form (panel B, as recorded by single cell microelectrodes) and ensures contractile amplitude and duration

ESM‐1 and GBP‐1 are associated with endothelial dysfunction: emerging biomarkers or key players in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia?

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Endothelial specific molecule‐1 (ESM‐1) and guanylate binding protein‐1 (GBP‐1) are proteins that are produced by activated/dysfunctional endothelial cells and are increased and decreased, respectively, during preeclampsia. It remains to be established whether ESM‐1 and GBP‐1 could potentially be included as biomarkers for the ...

miR‐146a/b‐5p‐IRAK1‐NF‐κB Axis Regulates Unexplained Recurrent Spontaneous Abortion

Journal of Molecular Recognition, Volume 39, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA) remains a prevalent obstetric issue, the underlying causes of which are still not fully understood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have the potential to influence URSA through their regulation of gene expression.

Assessing multifunctional mountain landscape in an Eastern European framework

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
The research introduces the Biocultural Resilience Index (BRI), a novel tool for assessing multifunctional landscape sustainability. By integrating biological, cultural, and socio‐economic indicators, the BRI identifies vulnerable areas and informs strategies for sustainable management.

Mono(2‐Ethylhexyl) Phthalate Induces Inflammatory and Angiogenic Alterations Mediated by the PI3K/AKT Pathway in HTR‐8/SVneo Trophoblastic Cells

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 209-222, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Exposure to mono(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) during pregnancy has been associated with adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes characterized by extravillous trophoblast (EVT) abnormal function. Previous reports have suggested that MEHP can activate the PI3K/AKT pathway in EVT cells, a pathway known to regulate inflammation and angiogenesis in ...
