Topics of Interest in Women With Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
Women with MPN: life‐cycle phases, specific risks, and influencing factors. ABSTRACT Overview Sex and gender have emerged as central modifiers of disease biology, phenotype, and clinical outcomes in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). This review will uniquely highlight issues affecting women with MPN and articulate their relevant determinants ...

The strategic uses of collagen in adherent cell cultures

Cell Biology International, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 367-373, February 2023., 2023
Abstract The culture of adherent mammalian cells involves adhesion to the tissue culture vessel. This requires attachment factors from serum and/or a suitable substrate on the vessel surface. Some cells require collagen or other substrates to promote neurite outgrowth, differentiation or growth.

Placental Flattening via Volumetric Parameterization [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
We present a volumetric mesh-based algorithm for flattening the placenta to a canonical template to enable effective visualization of local anatomy and function. Monitoring placental function in vivo promises to support pregnancy assessment and to improve care outcomes.

Deformable Slice-to-Volume Registration for Motion Correction in Fetal Body MRI [PDF]

, 2019
In in-utero MRI, motion correction for fetal body and placenta poses a particular challenge due to the presence of local non-rigid transformations of organs caused by bending and stretching. The existing slice-to-volume registration (SVR) reconstruction methods are widely employed for motion correction of fetal brain that undergoes only rigid ...

Tall Stature and Scoliosis Associated With a Novel Homozygous Loss‐of‐Function Missense Variant in NPR3

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT NPR3‐related tall stature is characterized by tall stature, elongated big toes, and additional epiphyses in hand and foot bones. The condition is caused by biallelic loss‐of‐function variants affecting natriuretic peptide receptor 3 (NPR3). Five individuals from four different families have been reported.

Improving diagnosis in patients with obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome through the evaluation of non‐criteria antibodies

Clinical & Translational Immunology
Objectives Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease driven by antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). Currently, APS diagnosis requires a combination of clinical manifestations (thrombosis and/or obstetric morbidity) and the persistent ...

A Transcriptome‐Wide Mendelian Randomization Study in Isolated Human Immune Cells Highlights Risk Genes Involved in Viral Infections and Potential Drug Repurposing Opportunities for Schizophrenia

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental psychiatric disorder characterized by symptoms of psychosis, thought disorder, and flattened affect. Immune mechanisms are associated with schizophrenia, though the precise nature of this relationship (causal, correlated, consequential) and the mechanisms involved are not fully understood.

Expression of β-catenin in human trophoblast and its role in placenta accreta and placenta previa

Journal of International Medical Research, 2019
Objectives To investigate the expression of β-catenin in chorionic villi, and to explore its roles in placenta accreta and placenta previa. Methods We compared β-catenin expression in the control group, placenta accreta group (lesion area and normal ...

Mean surface shape of a human placenta [PDF]

arXiv, 2008
The chorionic plate (or "fetal surface") of the human placenta is drawn as round, with the umbilical cord inserted roughly at the center, but variability of this shape is common. The average shape of the chorionic plate has never been established. The goal of this work is to measure the average shape in a birth cohort.
