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

Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia due to ABO incompatibility: does blood group matter?
The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2013 Newborn infants with maternal-fetal ABO incompatibility are at a greater risk for developing subsequent significant hyperbilirubinemia, and therefore, prediction of probable risk factors, such as the degree of hemolysis, gains importance.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Propionate in the fetal circulation is thought to originate from fermentation of dietary fibre by the maternal gut microbiota. However, the mechanism of transplacental transport has remained unclear. Here, we measured propionate permeability using a placental barrier model generated by differentiating human placental trophoblast ...

Epigenetic Perspectives on Maternal Gut Microbiota's Impact on Embryonic and Fetal Development. [PDF]
Compr PhysiolThis 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.

Physiological and anatomical determinants of placental drug transfer
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Fetal exposure to pharmaceuticals and their subsequent clearance back to the maternal circulation are governed by placental transfer. Passive diffusion down a maternal‐to‐fetal concentration gradient is the primary route of fetal drug exposure, with specific compounds undergoing transporter‐mediated transfer.

, 1991 In hypoxemic intrauterine growth-retarded fetuses (IUGR) there is a reduction in the incidence of fetal movements and in fetal heart rate variation. A causal relationship with the impairment of fetal oxygenation has been suggested. In 16 IUGR fetuses and

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 ...

Ammonia Levels in Maternal and Fetal Tissues and Blood of Urea-Treated Sheep
, 1974 Ammonia toxicosis is known to be a problem of nonprotein nitrogen or urea feeding in ruminant animals. Urea is hydrolyzed in the gastrointestinal tract in the presence of bacterial urease to ammonia and carbon dioxide.

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.
