Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Human placental exposure to pollutant nanoparticles: uptake, translocation and functional impact

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to pollutant nanoparticles has been increasingly investigated due to concerns about their potential effects on placental function and pregnancy outcomes. Maternal inhalation of pollutant nanoparticles can result in a pro‐inflammatory response; particles can also translocate across the alveolus epithelial barrier

A primary cell‐based fluidic co‐culture model to investigate drug transport across the human placenta

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of a flow‐driven in vitro model of the human placental barrier designed to study transport processes during pregnancy. The model recreates key features of the maternal–fetal interface, enabling the investigation of how nutrients and therapeutic compounds cross the placental barrier under physiologically ...

A review of xenobiotic membrane transporter expression within the human placenta: Lessons gained from primary tissue and in vitro methodologies

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A summary of the current knowledge around membrane transporter expression in the most widely used in vitro models of human trophoblasts, including primary placental tissue, cancer cell lines and trophoblast stem cells, as well as the techniques to attempt to mimic the human placenta in vivo.

Gemcitabine, Docetaxel, Melphalan, Carboplatin as Part of Sequential Cycles of High‐Dose Chemotherapy With Autologous Hematopoietic Stem‐Cell Rescue for Multiply Relapsed/Refractory Pediatric Germ Cell Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Although most malignant germ cell tumors (GCTs) are highly curable with cisplatin‐based therapy, options for patients with multiply relapsed/refractory disease remain limited. For this population, we report the first pediatric use of gemcitabine, docetaxel, melphalan, and carboplatin (GemDMC) as part of sequential cycles of high‐dose ...

Spheres, tears, and spears: Regulating the perimeter and circularity of millimeter‐sized alginate hydrogel beads

AIChE Journal, Volume 72, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Generating hydrogel beads pertains to many engineering applications. We examined two alginate‐based fluids at three concentrations of alginate, cAG. We used the “Map of Misery” to determine which material property (viscosity, elasticity, and inertia) drives droplet formation. Next, we measured the perimeter and circularity of hydrogel beads as

Epigenetic Perspectives on Maternal Gut Microbiota's Impact on Embryonic and Fetal Development

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2026.
This review summarizes how maternal health and nutrition shape gut microbiota via epigenetics to regulate embryonic development. It highlights microbiota‐embryo interactions, disruption by prenatal chemical exposures, and personalized nutrition for disease prevention, offering novel insights and therapeutic targets.

Development and Validation of a Deep Learning‐Based Facial Weakness Score for Objective Assessment in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 1096-1102, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a muscle disease that leads, among other manifestations, to facial weakness. This weakness can severely impact communication and quality of life, yet it remains under‐researched with limited objective clinical measures.
