CHD8‐Dependent Chromatin Licensing Sustains Trophoblast Stem Cell Transcriptional Programs

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, Huang et al., identify chromatin remodeler CHD8 as an essential factor in TSC maintenance and placental development. CHD8‐dependent chromatin accessibility supports the occupancy of key trophoblast TFs and is coupled to KMT2A‐associated H3K4me3 deposition at TSC stem and cell cycle genes, providing a permissive chromatin environment for ...

Can larvae of a marine fish adapt to ocean acidification? Evaluating the evolutionary potential of California Grunion (Leuresthes tenuis)

Evolutionary Applications, 2019
Ocean acidification can reduce the growth and survival of marine species during their larval stages. However, if populations have the genetic capacity to adapt and increase their tolerance of low pH and high pCO2 levels, this may offset the harmful ...

Do Maternal Investments in Human Capital Affect Childrens' Academic Achievement? [PDF]

Children of educated mothers fare better on a variety of educational outcomes. However, little research has been done on the effects of human capital investments undertaken by mothers with children at home. Such investments have a theoretically ambiguous

A Spatiotemporal Single‐Cell Atlas Uncovers Dysregulated ECM Dynamics and Septal Remodeling Arrest in Human Ventricular Septal Defects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Integrating single‐cell and spatial transcriptomics reveals human ventricular septal defect (VSD) as a disease of microenvironmental insufficiency and structural remodeling arrest. Attenuated endothelial‐fibroblast crosstalk, alongside downregulated THBS1/TGF‐β1 and MMP2 signaling networks, impairs the endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) and

Maternal–Foetal Effects of Exposure to Bisphenol A: Outcomes and Long-Term Consequences

Applied Sciences
Exposure to bisphenol A (BPA), one of the most widely produced plasticisers, can have a major effect on the growing embryo and the mother during pregnancy; as this is the most vulnerable period, the cutoff established in the legislation does not take ...

Targeting Macrophage‐Mediated Lymphatic Immunosuppression to Prevent Tumor Recurrence After Microwave Ablation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation induces animmunosuppressive microenvironment in tumor‐draining lymph nodes. An albumin‐based lipoprotein nanosystem enables coordinated delivery of immunomodulators to tumor‐draining lymph nodes and residual tumors, reverses post‐ablation immunosuppression, suppresses residual tumor growth, and promotes durable antitumor ...

Maternal Fitness Consequences of Different Causative Agents of Offspring Mortality in Early Life

, 2010
Maternal effects can be key determinants of female fitness through their influence on early life survival. In salmonids, three main sources of mortality in early life can be attributed to redd superimposition, predation, and starvation (meditated by ...

An Adenoviral‐Vectored Tp0326 Vaccine Elicits Robust Functional Antibodies to Prevent Treponema pallidum Dissemination in a Rabbit Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Vaccination promotes cellular infiltration into primary lesions and effectively inhibits T. pallidum dissemination to distal organs. Notably, transfer of lesion tissue from immunized animals fails to establish infection in naive recipients, confirming specific protective immunity.

Structural Control of Stromal‐Immune Coupling by COL24A1 Underlies Pregnancy Maintenance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
COL24A1 emerges as a collagen‐associated regulator of maternal‐fetal interface homeostasis. Its deficiency promotes a maladaptive TIMP1‐high stromal state, impaired ECM turnover, collagen accumulation, and stromal–immune dysregulation, contributing to pregnancy loss.

Good care practices can mitigate the negative effects of poverty and low maternal schooling on children's nutritional status [PDF]

This study uses data from a representative survey of households with preschoolers in Accra, Ghana to (1) examine the importance of care practices for children's height-for-age z-scores (HAZ); and (2) identify subgroups of children for whom good maternal ...
