DECENT is a deep learning method that enhances noninvasive preimplantation genetic testing by accurately reconstructing embryonic copy number variations (CNVs) from cell‐free DNA in spent embryo culture media. By mitigating maternal contamination, DECENT improves diagnostic accuracy, even with high contamination levels, offering a reliable, noninvasive

Isolation and characterization of a light chain variable region gene for human rheumatoid factors. [PDF]
Previously, we isolated a Vk gene (Humkv325) from a human placenta that encodes RF light chains bearing the PSL2 and PSL3 CRI markers. Here we report the isolation and characterization of a second human Vk gene (Humkv328) that can be used for RF ...

Localized Expression of Histamine H1 Receptors in Syncytiotrophoblast Cells of Human Placenta
The previous Northern blot analysis and in situ hybridization studies showed that histamine H1-receptor (H1R) mRNA is expressed in human placenta and suggested that H1R plays some roles in the function of placenta in pregnancy. To investigate further, it

Pischiutta F and coworkers identify prostaglandins and kynurenine as key mediators of the mesenchymal stromal cells‐derived secretome's neuroprotective effects. A synthetic cocktail composed of these factors promotes long‐term functional recovery, reduces brain structural damage, and modulates neuroinflammation after traumatic brain injury, supporting ...

Sequence of a putative human housekeeping gene (HK33) localized on chromosome 1 [PDF]
A gene (X33) localized on human chromosome 1 has been detected by crossreaction of its fusion protein with a monospecific antiserum directed against human vitamin-D-binding protein (hDBP; group-specific component).

This study reveals that M2‐EVs mitigate periodontitis‐induced bone resorption by modulating neutrophil fate. Single‐cell RNA sequencing identified an Anxa1hi neutrophil subpopulation with pro‐reparative properties. M2‐EVs disrupt neutrophil maturation, promoting this subpopulation through key reprogramming genes (Acvrl1, Fpr2). These findings highlight

Placenta-specific methylation of the vitamin D 24-hydroxylase gene: implications for feedback autoregulation of active vitamin D levels at the fetomaternal interface [PDF]
Plasma concentrations of biologically active vitamin D (1,25- (OH)2D) are tightly controlled via feedback regulation of renal 1-hydroxylase (CYP27B1; positive) and 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1; catabolic) enzymes.

Dysfunctional decidual CD4+T cells induce recurrent pregnancy loss via palmitoylation‐dependent Tim‐3 lysosomal sorting and degradation. The integrated bioinformatics, proteomic, functional and model studies elucidate that Tim‐3 is palmitoylated by ZDHHC3 at Cys9. Sortilin bound to and directed palmitoylated Tim‐3 toward lysosome degradation, resulting

A stochastic model for early placental development [PDF]
In the human, placental structure is closely related to placental function and consequent pregnancy outcome. Studies have noted abnormal placental shape in small-for-gestational age infants which extends to increased lifetime risk of cardiovascular ...

Optimal villi density for maximal oxygen uptake in the human placenta
We present a stream-tube model of oxygen exchange inside a human placenta functional unit (a placentone). The effect of villi density on oxygen transfer efficiency is assessed by numerically solving the diffusion-convection equation in a 2D+1D geometry ...
