The Pivotal Role of GR‐CAR Pathway in Fetal Programming of Hepatic Cytochrome P450 3A Alteration in Adulthood

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Prenatal dexamethasone exposure (PDE) persistently upregulates hepatic CYP3A1/CYP2B1 in offspring via glucocorticoid receptor (GR) activation. In vivo and in vitro studies show GR promotes P300/CBP binding to the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) promoter, sustaining histone acetylation (H3K9/K27ac) and enhancing CYP expression. The GR–CAR pathway

Maternal pomegranate juice intake and brain structure and function in infants with intrauterine growth restriction: A randomized controlled pilot study. [PDF]

, 2019
Polyphenol-rich pomegranate juice has been shown to have benefit as a neuroprotectant in animal models of neonatal hypoxic-ischemia. No published studies have investigated maternal polyphenol administration as a potential neuroprotectant in at-risk ...

Variant Update on ASCC1: Characterization of the First Homozygous Missense Variant Involved in Prenatal‐Onset Spinal Muscular Atrophy With Congenital Bone Fractures 2

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spinal muscular atrophy with congenital bone fractures 2 is a rare and severe autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder caused by pathogenic variants in ASCC1. This condition characterized by prenatal onset of severe hypotonia with fetal hypokinesia and congenital contractures results in arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, and increased ...

The Impact of the Parental Patterns of Morbidity and Comorbidity in the Cross‐Generational Transmission of Risk for Major Depression and Alcohol Use Disorder

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To further understand the inter‐relationship of the familial transmission of major depression (MD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD), we examine, via a multivariable Cox proportional hazards model, risks for AUD and MD in 1,244,516 individuals born in Sweden from 1970 to 1990 to intact mother–father pairs as a function of parental diagnoses of MD

Perinatal Gene Transfer to the Liver [PDF]

, 2011
The liver acts as a host to many functions hence raising the possibility that any one may be compromised by a single gene defect. Inherited or de novo mutations in these genes may result in relatively mild diseases or be so devastating that death within

Targeted Medical Therapies for Vascular Anomalies: A Clinical Review

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular anomalies represent a broad spectrum of disorders characterized by aberrant blood or lymphatic vessel development, which can lead to complex clinical phenotypes. Historically, vascular anomalies were classified solely on the basis of their clinical and histopathologic features.

In utero electroporation induces cell death and alters embryonic microglia morphology and expression signatures in the developing hypothalamus

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2018
Background Since its inception in 2001, in utero electroporation (IUE) has been widely used by the neuroscience community. IUE is a technique developed to introduce plasmid DNA into embryonic mouse brains without permanently removing the embryos from the

Bilateral microform cleft lip [PDF]

, 2006
Microform cleft lip (MCL), also called congenital healed cleft lip or cleft lip "frustré", is a rare congenital anomaly. MCL has been described as having the characteristic appearance of a typical cleft lip which has been corrected in utero. We present a

Late Pregnancy Antiseizure Medication Exposure and Offspring Neurodevelopmental Risk: A Multi‐Child Cohort Study

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Antiseizure medication (ASM) use during pregnancy has increased over the past decade. However, evidence linking prenatal ASM exposure to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in offspring remains inconsistent. This study evaluated whether prenatal ASM exposure increases the risk of NDDs in children.
