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

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 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.
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.

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.

Elevated fetal steroidogenic activity in autism [PDF]
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.

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
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 ...
