Placental Exosomes During Gestation: Liquid Biopsies Carrying Signals for the Regulation of Human Parturition.

Current pharmaceutical design, 2018
Parturition is defined as the action or process of giving birth to offspring. Normal term human parturition ensues following the maturation of fetal organ systems typically between 37 and 40 weeks of gestation.

Propranolol and Parturition

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1978
Propranolol is a beta-adrenergic blocking drug with a wide spectrum of use and may diverse pharmacologic effects. This case report is an example of a parturient who was on a large dose of propranolol for idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis. The effects of this drug on pregnancy, labor, and above all, the fetus are discussed.

Parturition effects on reproductive health in the gilt and sow.

Reproduction in domestic animals = Zuchthygiene, 2016
In this review, we address significant characteristics of parturition in the pig and their connection to post-partum reproductive health and fertility. We discuss the normal physiology and behaviour around parturition and the effect of the second phase ...

Desert bighorn sheep lambing habitat: Parturition, nursery, and predation sites

, 2016
Fitness of female ungulates is determined by neonate survival and lifetime reproductive success. Therefore, adult female ungulates should adopt behaviors and habitat selection patterns that enhance survival of neonates during parturition and lactation ...

Neuroendocrinology of pregnancy and parturition

2014
During pregnancy, the maternal brain drives a series of adaptive mechanisms that are fundamental for allowing fetal growth and development, protecting both mother and fetus from adverse programming and timing of parturition. This neuroendocrine concept is even more complex as fetal brain and placenta also participate as regulators of maternal-placental-

Parturition

2006
Preterm labor is one of the major problems in obstetrics and its incidence has not decreased since the mid-1980s. There have, however, been considerable advances in our understanding of the mechanisms involved in parturition. The onset of parturition is controlled by endocrine, inflammatory, and mechanical factors.

Cell-free fetal DNA--a trigger for parturition.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2014
Despite the importance of timing in parturition, little is known about its triggers. Emerging evidence supports an influential role for the level of cell-free fetal DNA.

The role of oxytocin in parturition

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2003
Oxytocin and the oxytocin receptor have two important roles in labour. Evidence in all mammalian species suggests that neurohypophysical oxytocin plays a role in the expulsive phase and, although there are less supporting data, a role for oxytocin in the initiation of labour is likely.
