Fetal Proteins in Ataxia-Telangiectasia
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982Ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) is a genetic disorder of unknown pathogenesis, with primary effects on the immune and nervous systems. The presence of a fetal-like thymus and elevated a-fetoprotein (aFP) levels in patients with AT suggests that suppressed mesodermal development may be a factor in the development of this disease.

Retinol-binding protein 4, fetal overgrowth and fetal growth factors
Pediatric Research, 2019Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP-4) is an adipokine involved in regulating insulin sensitivity which would affect fetal growth. It is unclear whether RBP-4 is associated with fetal overgrowth, and unexplored which fetal growth factor(s) may mediate the association.In the Shanghai Birth Cohort, we studied 125 pairs of larger-for-gestational-age (LGA ...

Protein synthesis by human fetal lung
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1981Biochemical and morphologic studies have shown that proteins and carbohydrate-protein complexes, in addition to phospholipids, are present in the alveolar surface layer. For this reason the study of lung protein synthesis in parallel with phospholipid biosynthesis and its regulation is of interest.

Key points Fetal glucagon concentrations are elevated in the setting of placental insufficiency, hypoxia and elevated stress hormones. Chronically elevated glucagon concentrations in the adult result in profound decreases in amino acid concentrations and lean body mass.

Fetal proteins occurring in testicular teratomas
International Journal of Cancer, 1974AbstractAlpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) were determined simultaneously in serial samples from patients with teratocarcinomas, testicular tumors of so‐called embryonic origin. These tumor‐associated fetal substances were seen together in four cases, AFP alone was seen in five, CEA in three and neither antigen in two.

Maternal—Fetal Protein Transport
1983The reproductive success of a species is dependent on the ability of the mother to provide her offspring with a variety of substances essential for the development, nutrition and immunological protection of the fetus and neonate. In this chapter we focus on the process by which essential maternal proteins are specifically transported from the mother to

The “Pregnancy Zone” Protein and Fetal Welfare
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1974Abstract. The “pregnancy zone” protein (PZ) was demonstrated in the sera of 311 out of 350 pregnant women at term (88.9%). The lack of demonstrable PZ was studied in relation to parameters reflecting fetal maturity (birth weight, placental weight and gestational age).

Protein Z levels and unexplained fetal losses
Fertility and Sterility, 2004We evaluated protein Z plasma levels in a group of women with fetal losses (n = 124) and compared them with those in a group of women (n = 60) with uneventful pregnancies. We found that protein Z deficiency is not associated with otherwise unexplained fetal losses.

Human epididymis protein 4 and fetal lung maturity
Journal of Perinatal Medicine, 2021Abstract Objectives To document the maternal and fetal cord blood levels of human epididymis protein 4 (HE-4) in term and preterm newborns in order to investigate the possible physiological role of HE-4 in fetal lung development. Methods

Serum Protein Synthesis by the Fetal Rat
Science, 1963Injection of C 14 -labeled amino acids intraperitoneally into rat fetuses in utero results in greater labeling of fetal serum proteins than when the amino acid is injected into the mother. Maternal partial hepatectomy leads to only minimal changes in serum protein synthesis.
