Multipotent stem cells of mother's milk [PDF]

, 2016
In recent years the presence of stem cells (hBSCs: human breastmilkderived stem cells) and epithelial progenitors has been demonstrated in mother’s milk (MM).

Costimulatory molecule-deficient dendritic cell progenitors (MHC class II⁺, CD80(dim), CD86^-) prolong cardiac allograft survival in nonimmunosuppressed recipients [PDF]

, 1996
We have shown previously that granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor-stimulated mouse bone marrow-derived MHC class II+ dendritic cell (DC) progenitors that are deficient in cell surface expression of the costimulatory molecules B7-1 (CD8O) and

Maternal microchimerism in the livers of patients with Biliary atresia [PDF]

, 2004
Background Biliary atresia (BA) is a neonatal cholestatic disease of unknown etiology. It is the leading cause of liver transplantation in children. Many similarities exist between BA and graft versus host disease suggesting engraftment of maternal cells

Sex matters in CSU: Women face greater burden and poorer urticaria control, especially in midlife—CURE insights

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 67-78, January 2026.
Chronic spontaneous urticaria affects more females than males, with predominance starting at age 31. The rates of several symptoms, including angioedema, sleep disturbance and systemic symptoms, are significantly higher in females than in males. Overall, females face greater burden and poorer urticaria control.

Non-inherited maternal antigens, pregnancy, and allotolerance

Biomedical Journal, 2015
Non-inherited maternal antigens (NIMA) are those protein products derived from polymorphic genes that the mothers express but not the offspring. During normal human pregnancy, a bidirectional regulation occurs in such a way that the maternal immune ...

Lady Parts and Baby Parts: What Is a Fetus?

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 112, Issue 1, Page 161-174, January 2026.
ABSTRACT A common‐sense view of mammalian pregnancy treats the fetus as (a) an organism and (b) co‐extensive with the approximately baby‐shaped entity developing in the uterus. In this paper, I draw on metabolic accounts of the organism to show that (a) and (b) cannot both be correct: either the fetus is not an organism, or it is considerably more ...

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis in relation to perinatal and maternal characteristics: a case control study

Pediatric Rheumatology Online Journal, 2017
Background Existing data on associations between maternal and early childhood exposures and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) risk is scant and inconsistent with previous studies showing potential role for prematurity, number of siblings and infections.

Blood fetal microchimerism in primary biliary cirrhosis

Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 2000
SUMMARY The autoimmune nature of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is well established. We tested the hypothesis that fetal microchimerism indicated by the persistence of circulating fetal cells in women years after pregnancy might contribute to the aetiopathogenesis of PBC through a graft-versus-host-like response.

Maternal dendritic cells influence fetal allograft response following murine in-utero hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2023
Background Intrauterine hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (IUT), potentially curative in congenital haematological disease, is often inhibited by deleterious immune responses to donor cells resulting in subtherapeutic donor cell chimerism (DCC ...

Interbirth intervals: Intrafamilial, intragenomic and intrasomatic conflict [PDF]

, 2014
Background and objectives: Interbirth intervals (IBIs) mediate a trade-off between child number and child survival. Life history theory predicts that the evolutionarily optimal IBI differs for different individuals whose fitness is affected by how ...
