Differential expression of microRNA-206 and its target genes in pre-eclampsia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objectives: Pre-eclampsia is a multi-system disease that significantly contributes to maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. In this study, we used a non-biased microarray approach to identify novel circulating miRNAs in maternal plasma that may be ...

Next‐generation proteomics improves lung cancer risk prediction

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This is one of very few studies that used prediagnostic blood samples from participants of two large population‐based cohorts. We identified, evaluated, and validated an innovative protein marker model that outperformed an established risk prediction model and criteria employed by low‐dose computed tomography in lung cancer screening trials.

Shear wave velocity by quantitative acoustic radiation force impulse in the placenta of normal and high-risk pregnancy

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2020
Background Traditionally, the placental functional integrity is suggested by indirect ultrasound measurements like fetal growth, amniotic fluid index, and uterine and umbilical artery Doppler indices.

Expression of mTOR and downstream signalling components in the JEG-3 and BeWo human placental choriocarcinoma cell lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This article has been made available through the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund.Emerging data suggest that nutritional status and body weight are related to reproductive function, and nutrient imbalances during pregnancy lead to changes in the ...

Targeting p38α in cancer: challenges, opportunities, and emerging strategies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
p38α normally regulates cellular stress responses and homeostasis and suppresses malignant transformation. In cancer, however, p38α is co‐opted to drive context‐dependent proliferation and dissemination. p38α also supports key functions in cells of the tumor microenvironment, including fibroblasts, myeloid cells, and T lymphocytes.

Upregulation of IL-15 in the placenta alters trophoblasts behavior contributing to gestational diabetes mellitus

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2021
Background Interleukin-15 (IL-15), a member of the ‘four α-helix bundle’ cytokine family, has been associated with many inflammatory and metabolic diseases.

Natural killer cells in placentation and cancer: Implications for hypertension during pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hypertension during pregnancy is the most common medical condition encountered during gestation. Despite this, knowledge of the mechanisms that underlie the disease and the development of new therapies are limited.

The Placenta in Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yesArchives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, 2000
A from a 28-year-old, African American, primigravida patient with sickle cell trait was received for routine pathologic examination. Prior to her current pregnancy, this patient had been admitted 3 times during adolescence for sickle cell crises and had documented retinopathy. The pregnancy was uneventful. Blood tests revealed a normochromic normocytic

Coronavirus disease 2019 and the placenta: A literature review

open access: yesPlacenta, 2022
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus has been implicated in the clinical pathology of multiple organs and organ systems. Due to the novelty of the disease, there is a need to review emerging literature to understand the profile of SARS-CoV-2 in the placenta.

Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) regulates trophoblast syncytialization through organelle stress–induced cellular senescence

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The inhibition of mitochondrial dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) impairs syncytialization and induces cellular senescence via mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum stress in human trophoblast stem cells, elevating sFlt1/PlGF levels, a hallmark of placental dysfunction in hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
