Understanding the uterine artery Doppler waveform and its relationship to spiral artery remodelling [PDF]
Analysis of the uterine artery (UtA) Doppler waveform is frequently used in high-risk pregnancies to assess the likelihood of adverse pregnancy outcomes, including preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction. Whilst abnormal UtA waveforms at 18-20 weeks are associated with adverse outcomes, the underlying cause of these waveform changes remains unknown ...

MicroRNA-218-5p Promotes Endovascular Trophoblast Differentiation and Spiral Artery Remodeling. [PDF]
Preeclampsia (PE) is the leading cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Defects in trophoblast invasion, differentiation of endovascular extravillous trophoblasts (enEVTs), and spiral artery remodeling are key factors in PE development.

Lymphatic mimicry in maternal endothelial cells promotes placental spiral artery remodeling. [PDF]
Molecular heterogeneity of endothelial cells underlies their highly specialized functions during changing physiological conditions within diverse vascular beds. For example, placental spiral arteries (SAs) undergo remarkable remodeling to meet the ever-growing demands of the fetus - a process which is deficient in preeclampsia.

Spiral Artery Remodeling in Preeclampsia Revisited [PDF]
See related article, pp 1046–1054 The first observations that placental bed defects were potentially linked to clinical outcomes such as preeclampsia (PE) were made nearly 50 years ago.1 This study followed prior findings that the placental clearance of radiolabeled saline was significantly decreased in women with hypertensive gestations.2 ...

Induced Human Decidual NK-Like Cells Improve Utero-Placental Perfusion in Mice. [PDF]
Decidual NK (dNK) cells, a distinct type of NK cell, are thought to regulate uterine spiral artery remodeling, a process that allows for increased blood delivery to the fetal-placental unit.

Uterine natural killer cells initiate spiral artery remodeling in human pregnancy [PDF]
Uterine spiral artery remodeling is required for successful human pregnancy; impaired remodeling is associated with pregnancy complications, including late miscarriage, preeclampsia, and fetal growth restriction. The molecular triggers of remodeling are not known, but it is now clear that there are “trophoblast‐independent” and ...

The role of extravillous trophoblasts and uterine NK cells in vascular remodeling during pregnancy
Successful embryo implantation requires both a receptive endometrium and competent blastocysts. After implantation, the maternal decidua undergoes a series of changes, including uterine spiral artery (SA) remodeling to accommodate the fetus and provide ...

Abstract Uterine spiral artery remodeling (SAR) is essential for promoting placental perfusion and fetal development. A defect in SAR results in placental ischemia and increase in placental expression and serum levels of the soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) receptor that binds to and suppresses vascular endothelial growth ...

Background The widely accepted explanation of preeclampsia (PE) pathogenesis is insufficient trophoblast invasion and impaired uterine spiral artery remodeling. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear.
