Placental crises: disruptive selection and maternal under‐investment as the foundations of mammalian placental evolution and dysfunction

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among the vertebrates, mammals are notable for the dominance of live birth and placental nutrition. The structural diversity of the mammalian placenta is remarkable, despite sharing a single common ancestor and conserved physiological functions.

Bone growth and sexual dimorphism at birth in intrauterine-growth-retarded rats [PDF]

, 2010
This paper addresses the effect of a reduction of uterine blood flow (RUB) on postcranial bone growth in rats. The objectives were: (1) to discover and characterize the changes evoked by growth retardation through a reduction in placental blood flow, (2)

Bridging maternal effects and epitranscriptomics: A novel perspective in developmental biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Maternal effects, encompassing both genetic (maternally expressed gene products) and non‐genetic (maternal state) influences, are powerful determinants of offspring phenotype, yet their RNA‐level mechanisms remain incompletely resolved. In parallel, epitranscriptomics, an emerging field centered on chemical modifications to RNA, has revealed ...

Correlation between umbilical cord concentration of the growth hormone‐IGF axis and small for gestational age: A single‐center retrospective, observational study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Synopsis Imbalance in the GH‐IGF‐1 axis may restrict fetal growth and development, thereby increasing the risk of future metabolic diseases. Abstract Objective To ascertain the association between small for gestational age (SGA) and growth hormone (GH)‐insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) system status.

Impacts of prenatal environmental exposures on fetal-placental-maternal bile acid homeostasis and long-term health in offspring

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
During pregnancy, the maternal body undergoes a series of adaptative physiological changes, leading to a slight increase in serum bile acid (BA) levels. Although the fetal liver can synthesize BAs since the first trimester through the alternative pathway,

A review of the impact of micro‐ and nanoplastics on female reproduction: What we know and gaps in knowledge

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Micro‐and nanoplastics (MNPs) are breakdown products of plastics, and humans are exposed to these particles through air, water, food, and soil. There is a growing concern that human exposure to MNPs negatively impacts health. In this review we will discuss the potential health impact of MNPs on ovarian function and the hypothalamic–pituitary ...
