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

Regulation of stanniocalcin-1 secretion by BeWo cells and first trimester human placental tissue from normal pregnancies and those at increased risk of developing preeclampsia. [PDF]
, 2020 Stanniocalcin-1 (STC-1) is a multi-functional glycosylated peptide present in the plasma of healthy women postpartum and increased further in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia. Although the STC-1 gene is expressed by the placenta what regulates its

Placental compliance during fetal extracorporeal circulation [PDF]
Journal of Applied Physiology, 2001 The fetus requires large amounts of volume when weaning from cardiac bypass. This suggests that placental vasculature can act as a large capacitor in the fetal circulation. To assess placental compliance of fetal lambs, seven isolated in situ lamb placentas were placed on extracorporeal circulation.

Assessment of the human placental microbiome in early pregnancy
Frontiers in Medicine, 2023 IntroductionBacteria derived from the maternal circulation have been suggested to seed the human placenta during development leading to an intrinsic placental microbiome. This concept has become controversial as numerous studies suggest that the apparent

Effects of maternal smoking on human placental vascularization: A systematic review
Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2019 The abnormal development of placental vascularization leads to placental insufficiency, which further reduces the nutrient and trace exchange between maternal circulation and fetal circulation. These changes cause maternal and fetal complications.

A lesson for cancer research : placental microarray gene analysis in preeclampsia [PDF]
, 2012 Tumor progression and pregnancy share many common features, such as immune tolerance and invasion. The invasion of trophoblasts in the placenta into the uterine wall is essential for fetal development, and is thus precisely regulated.

Adhesive and degradative properties of human placental cytotrophoblast cells in vitro. [PDF]
, 1989 Human fetal development depends on the embryo rapidly gaining access to the maternal circulation. The trophoblast cells that form the fetal portion of the human placenta have solved this problem by transiently exhibiting certain tumor-like properties ...
