MR imaging–derived oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curves and fetal-placental oxygen-hemoglobin affinities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE: To generate magnetic resonance (MR) imaging–derived, oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curves and to map fetal-placental oxygen-hemoglobin affinity in pregnant mice noninvasively by combining blood oxygen level–dependent (BOLD) T2* and oxygen ...

Lung Microphysiological System Validates Novel Cell Therapy for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of primed mesenchymal stem cells (pMSCs) as an alternative treatment for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), based on a novel lung microphysiological system (MPS) to test the efficacy of pMSCs over the standard treatment, Dexamethasone.

Antenatal Secondhand Smoke (SHS) Exposure and the Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-Products (RAGE)

open access: yesReproductive Medicine
Exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS) during fetal development results in negative postnatal effects, including altered organ development, changes in metabolism, and increased risk of respiratory illness.

Experimental Zika Virus Infection in the Pregnant Common Marmoset Induces Spontaneous Fetal Loss and Neurodevelopmental Abnormalities. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
During its most recent outbreak across the Americas, Zika virus (ZIKV) was surprisingly shown to cause fetal loss and congenital malformations in acutely and chronically infected pregnant women.

Multiple Twinning in Nacre and Aragonite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electron backscatter diffraction map of a cluster of geologic aragonite, exhibiting single, double, and triple twins. The whole cluster is approximately 2 cm wide. Colors indicate crystal orientations, so that pixels where the a‐, b‐, and c‐axis is perpendicular to the image plane are green, red, and blue, respectively.

Comparing placentas from normal and abnormal pregnancies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This report describes work carried out at a Mathematics-in-Medicine Study Group. It is believed that placenta shape villous network characteristics are strongly linked to the placenta’s efficiency, and hence to pregnancy outcome.

Human Endometrial Extracellular Matrix Hydrogel Facilitated Endometrial Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Endometrial Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Adequate thickness of the uterine lining is crucial for women with thin or damaged endometrium to achieve pregnancies. Endometrial mesenchymal stem cells (eMSC) can facilitate the cyclical repair and regeneration of the human endometrium. In this study, the human endometrium derived extracellular matrix hydrogel supports the growth of eMSC promoting ...

Zika virus infection in human placental tissue explants is enhanced in the presence of dengue virus antibodies in-vitro

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2018
The current Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreak is associated with neurological malformations and disorders in neonates. Areas of increased incidence of malformations may overlap with dengue-hyperendemic areas.
