Tumor necrosis factor-alpha production induced by peptidoglycan-polysaccharide in early pregnant ewes [PDF]
Peptidoglycan-polysaccharide (PG-PS), cell wall component of gram-positive bacteria, was used to intoxicate sheep to study mastitis-related reproductive failure, mediated by TNF-alpha. Estrus was synchronized in ten adult Suffolk ewes.

The Role Of Pparγ In Placental Development And Disease [PDF]
The placenta in mammals forms the maternal fetal interface serving as the source of nutrition for the fetus throughout gestation. It comprises of two major trophoblast lineages: (i) the decidua invading extra-villous trophoblast (EVT) and (ii) the ...

Investigation of monoclonal antibodies raised to human ovarian carcinoma cell lines [PDF]
Monoclonal antibodies (MAb) were generated to multidrug resistant (MDR) and sensitive variants of the ovarian carcinoma cell line OAW42 which over-express the M D R associated protem LRP/MVP MAb 3/B6 was raised to the intrinsically resistant variant ...

Pregnancy-specific glycoprotein function, conservation and receptor investigation [PDF]
Pregnancy-specific glycoproteins (PSGs) are highly glycosylated secreted proteins encoded by multi-gene families in some placental mammals. They are carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family and immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily members.

Imunorregulação na pré-eclâmpsia: estudo de mediadores inflamatórios e pró-resolutivos. [PDF]
Preeclampsia (PE) is a disease characterized by excessive maternal inflammatory response. Annexin A1 (AnxA1) and lipoxin A4 (LXA4) are anti-inflammatory and proresolving molecules, while C reactive protein (CRP) and soluble tumor necrosis factor alpha ...

Studies on the androgen receptor and steroid metabolising enzymes in the human endometrium [PDF]
Activation of sex steroid receptors is a key event in the regulation of uterine function. The expression of sex steroid receptors such as Oestrogen and Progesterone have been well characterised in normal human endometrial tissue.
