Prolonged transition time between colostrum and mature milk in a bear, the giant panda, Ailuropoda melanoleuca [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Bears produce the most altricial neonates of any placental mammal. We hypothesized that the transition from colostrum to mature milk in bears reflects a temporal and biochemical adaptation for altricial development and immune protection.

Placental-mediated increased cytokine response to lipopolysaccharides: a potential mechanism for enhanced inflammation susceptibility of the preterm fetus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BackgroundCerebral palsy is a nonprogressive motor impairment syndrome that has no effective cure. The etiology of most cases of cerebral palsy remains unknown; however, recent epidemiologic data have demonstrated an association between fetal neurologic ...

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

open access: yesEcotoxicology 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,
