Association between gestational weight gain and chronic disease risks in later life

open access: yesScientific Reports
To assess the association between gestational weight gain (GWG) and the risk of developing chronic diseases in later life, this historical cohort study of 318 non-overweight women was conducted between April 2017 and November 2020 at a hospital in Tokyo.

Fetal liver blood flow distribution: role in human developmental strategy to prioritize fat deposition versus brain development

open access: yes, 2012
Among primates, human neonates have the largest brains but also the highest proportion of body fat. If placental nutrient supply is limited, the fetus faces a dilemma: should resources be allocated to brain growth, or to fat deposition for use as a ...

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Animal models of fetal growth restriction: Considerations for translational medicine.

open access: yes, 2015
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is the failure of a fetus to reach its full genetic growth potential. It occurs in up to 8% of pregnancies, and after premature birth is the second leading cause of infant mortality and morbidity.

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Development of the human fetal thyroid

open access: yesGeneral and Comparative Endocrinology, 1968
Abstract The human fetal thyroid between the 65–80 mm crown-rump stage (73–80 gestational days) attains maturity in terms of relative weight, appearance of colloid containing central cavities, and ability to produce iodinated organic products, including thyroxine.

Cellular and hormonal disruption of fetal testis development in sheep reared on pasture treated with sewage sludge

open access: yes, 2005
The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether experimental exposure of pregnant sheep to a mixture of environmental chemicals added to pasture as sewage sludge (n = 9 treated animals) exerted effects on fetal testis development or function ...

Elevated fetal steroidogenic activity in autism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Autism affects males more than females, giving rise to the idea that the influence of steroid hormones on early fetal brain development may be one important early biological risk factor.

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Association between the cumulative duration of abnormal cardiotocography patterns and fetal acidemia

open access: yesThe Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine
Objective To assess the association between the cumulative duration of abnormal cardiotocography (CTG) findings, classified using the Japan Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology (JSOG) five-tier cardiotocography (CTG) classification system, and fetal ...
