Heme oxygenase-1 is critically involved in placentation, spiral artery remodeling, and blood pressure regulation during murine pregnancy

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
The onset of pregnancy implies the appearance of a new organ, the placenta. One main function of the placenta is to supply oxygen to the fetus via hemoproteins.

State of the art: iterative CT reconstruction techniques [PDF]

, 2015
Owing to recent advances in computing power, iterative reconstruction (IR) algorithms have become a clinically viable option in computed tomographic (CT) imaging. Substantial evidence is accumulating about the advantages of IR algorithms over established

Abnormal Origin and Course of the Accessory Phrenic Nerve: Case Report

Acta Medica, 2016
In the current cadaveric study an unusual sizeable accessory phrenic nerve (APN) was encountered emerging from the trunk of the supraclavicular nerves and forming a triangular loop that was anastomosing with the phrenic nerve. That neural loop surrounded

Formation of atypical podosomes in extravillous trophoblasts regulates extracellular matrix degradation [PDF]

, 2012
Throughout pregnancy the cytotrophoblast, the stem cell of the placenta, gives rise to the differentiated forms of trophoblasts. The two main cell lineages are the syncytiotrophoblast and the invading extravillous trophoblast.

Elastin-derived peptides stimulate trophoblast migration and invasion: a positive feedback loop to enhance spiral artery remodelling.

Molecular human reproduction, 2015
Elastin breakdown in the walls of uterine spiral arteries during early pregnancy facilitates their transformation into dilated, high-flow, low-resistance channels.

Intraoperative radial nerve injury during coronary artery surgery – report of two cases

Journal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury, 2006
Background Peripheral nerve injury and brachial plexopathy are known, though rare complications of coronary artery surgery. The ulnar nerve is most frequently affected, whereas radial nerve lesions are much less common accounting for only 3% of such ...

Adaptive mechanisms controlling uterine spiral artery remodeling during the establishment of pregnancy.

International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2014
Implantation of the embryo into the uterus triggers the initiation of hemochorial placentation. The hemochorial placenta facilitates the acquisition of maternal resources required for embryo/fetal growth.
