Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Higher body‐mass index modifies time‐resolved maternal autonomic cardiac–uterine coupling during the first stage of human labour

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated whether higher body mass index (BMI) modifies time‐resolved maternal autonomic control and maternal cardio‐electrohysterographic coupling (MCEC) during the first stage of labour. Seventy‐nine women were studied and, for the present analysis, grouped as Control (C; n = 41) and high BMI (HBMI; n = 38).

Independent and synergistic effects of maternal and paternal obesogenic diets on offspring early‐life outcomes in the rat

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Independent effects of maternal obesogenic diets on offspring outcomes are acknowledged, but data on paternal and combined maternal–paternal obesity remain limited. We investigated independent and combined maternal–paternal effects of an obesogenic (OB) high‐fat, high‐sugar diet on offspring outcomes.

Sex‐specific differences in mortality and neurocardiac interactions in the Kv1.1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP)

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The Kcna1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) exhibits sex‐specific differences in SUDEP risk. Female mice exhibit a lower SUDEP risk than males, despite similar seizure characteristics and interictal cardiac function across sexes.

TMEM16A chloride channels in the female reproductive tract and their role in normal and dysfunctional pregnancy and labour

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle. An increase in TMEM16A expression in labour underpins a lengthening of the plateau and this provides time for the contraction to become larger and longer, important for timely successful labour.
