Insulin Treatment Is Associated With Improved Fetal Placental Vascular Circulation in Obese and Non-obese Women With Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Objective: The present study was designed to investigate the impact of carbohydrate restriction and insulin treatment on placental maternal and fetal vascular circulation in obese and non-obese women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Design and ...

HLA gene expression is altered in whole blood and placenta from women who later developed preeclampsia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Preeclampsia 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 dysregulated genes in maternal whole blood samples which may be ...

Delayed cord clamping in the compromised baby [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Compromised babies are routinely immediately separated from the umbilical cord in order to be resuscitated. The benefits of delayed cord clamping are numerous and apply as much, if not more, to the non-breathing baby, thus it is important to ask ‘does ...

Metalloprotease Dependent Release of Placenta Derived Fractalkine

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2014
The chemokine fractalkine is considered as unique since it exists both as membrane-bound adhesion molecule and as shed soluble chemoattractant. Here the hypothesis was tested whether placental fractalkine can be shed and released into the maternal ...

Dexamethasone induces an imbalanced fetal-placental-maternal bile acid circulation: involvement of placental transporters

open access: yesBMC Medicine, 2021
Background The use of prenatal dexamethasone remains controversial. Our recent studies found that prenatal dexamethasone exposure can induce maternal intrahepatic cholestasis and have a lasting adverse influence on bile acid (BA) metabolism in the ...

Placental Circulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
One of the most important developments of recent years in the field of uterine physiology has been the recognition that the endometrial changes occurring during the menstrual cycle and those associated with pregnancy are interlocking, sequential events ...

The effect of maternal iron deficiency on zinc and copper levels and on genes of zinc and copper metabolism during pregnancy in the rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Fe deficiency is relatively common in pregnancy and has both short- and long-term consequences. However, little is known about the effect on the metabolism of other micronutrients.

In preeclampsia, maternal third trimester subcutaneous adipocyte lipolysis is more resistant to suppression by insulin than in healthy pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Obesity increases preeclampsia risk, and maternal dyslipidemia may result from exaggerated adipocyte lipolysis. We compared adipocyte function in preeclampsia with healthy pregnancy to establish whether there is increased lipolysis.

Transport of cholesterol across a BeWo cell monolayer

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
The placental transport of various compounds, such as glucose and fatty acids, has been well studied. However, the transport of cholesterol, a sterol essential for proper fetal development, remains undefined in the placenta.

Thrombophilia in the pathogenesis of fetal growth retardation

open access: yesАкушерство, гинекология и репродукция, 2021
Fetal growth retardation (FGR) is a complication of pregnancy that determines perinatal morbidity and mortality. It is a complex and multifaceted medical problem that does not lose its relevance.
