ABSTRACT Preeclampsia (PE) is an obstetric disease that is characterized by reduced migration and invasion of placental trophoblast cells. Here, the effects of the E3 ubiquitin ligase UBE3A on the migration and invasion of trophoblast cells were evaluated.

Altered expression of norepinephrine transporter and norepinephrine in human placenta cause pre-eclampsia through regulated trophoblast invasion [PDF]
Objective: We investigated the norepinephrine transporter (NET) expression in normal and pre-eclamptic placentas and analyzed the invasion activity of trophoblastic cells based on norepinephrine (NE)-NET regulation.

ABSTRACT Purpose To develop accelerated 3D phase contrast (PC) MRI using jointly learned wave encoding and reconstruction. Methods Pseudo‐fully sampled neurovascular 4D flow data (N = 40) and a simulation framework were used to learn phase encoding locations, wave readout parameters, and model‐based reconstruction network (MoDL) for a rapid 3D PC scan (

Uncovering the Genetic Landscape of Spinal Dysraphism: A Retrospective Analysis of 150 Fetal Cases
ABSTRACT Objective Spinal dysraphism (SD) results from incomplete neural tube closure and encompasses a heterogeneous group of congenital anomalies with genetic and environmental etiologies. Although genetic contributions are recognized, causative variants remain insufficiently defined, and the clinical implications of extended genetic testing on ...

EVALUATION OF UNK CELL CAPACITY TO INITIATE PREGNANCY-ASSOCIATED SPIRAL ARTERY REMODELLING
Transient uterine Natural Killer (uNK) cells are the predominant leukocytes of early gestational human and murine uteri. Murine uNK cells promote changes in endometrial structure including initiation of perivascular smooth muscle reduction in spiral arteries. Less is known about human uNK cell functions due to sampling constraints.

ABSTRACT Exposure to mono(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) during pregnancy has been associated with adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes characterized by extravillous trophoblast (EVT) abnormal function. Previous reports have suggested that MEHP can activate the PI3K/AKT pathway in EVT cells, a pathway known to regulate inflammation and angiogenesis in ...
