The Consequences of Chorioamnionitis: Preterm Birth and Effects on Development
Preterm birth is a major cause of perinatal mortality and long-term morbidity. Chorioamnionitis is a common cause of preterm birth. Clinical chorioamnionitis, characterised by maternal fever, leukocytosis, tachycardia, uterine tenderness, and preterm ...

Role of vitamin A/retinoic acid in regulation of embryonic and adult hematopoiesis [PDF]
Vitamin A is an essential micronutrient throughout life. Its physiologically active metabolite retinoic acid (RA), acting through nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs), is a potent regulator of patterning during embryonic development, as well as being ...

C4d Deposition in Fetal Vessels of the Placenta in Neonatal Lupus Syndrome
Neonatal lupus syndrome (NLS) is a rare, passively acquired autoimmune syndrome caused by maternal autoantibodies. We describe a case of a newborn with NLS and the accompanying placental findings.

The role of fetal inflammatory response syndrome and fetal anemia in nonpreventable term neonatal encephalopathy [PDF]
To evaluate asphyxial patterns in term encephalopathic newborns caused by chorioamnionitis or intrapartum blood loss that resulted in cerebral palsy and allegations of obstetrical professional liability.As an expert witness, JKM identified term newborns with profound neurologic impairment: 18 born in the presence of chorioamnionitis and 14 with ...

Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Fetal and early neonatal interleukin-6 response [PDF]
In 1998, a systemic fetal cytokine response, defined as a plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) value above 11 pg/mL, was reported to be a major independent risk factor for the subsequent development of neonatal morbid events even after adjustments for gestational
