The Immunology of Syncytialized Trophoblast

, 2021
Multinucleate syncytialized trophoblast is found in three forms in the human placenta. In the earliest stages of pregnancy, it is seen at the invasive leading edge of the implanting embryo and has been called primitive trophoblast. In later pregnancy, it

ANGPT2 Drives Thyroid Cancer Progression Through PI3K/AKT Signaling and Correlates With Poor Prognosis and Immune Infiltration

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Angiopoietin‐2 (ANGPT2) is known to participate in tumor progression and immune modulation across multiple malignancies. Nevertheless, its expression pattern, prognostic value, and biological function in thyroid cancer (THCA) have not been comprehensively investigated.

Trophoblast biology: Forum introduction

, 2004
In mammals, a carefully orchestrated dialogue between the mother and conceptus (embryo/fetus and associate extraembryonic membranes) is initiated during the peri-implantation period of pregnancy as the trophoblast develops, functions to signal pregnancy ...

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

Progesterone receptor antagonism by mifepristone impairs trophoblast stemness and promotes apoptosis through upregulation of PDCD4

Cell & Bioscience
Background Trophoblast cells are a critical component of retained products of conception (RPOC). While mifepristone is widely used as a non-invasive treatment for RPOC, its precise molecular mechanisms in trophoblast regulation remain poorly defined ...

Safety of Venom Immunotherapy in Pregnancy: A Multicentre Study

Allergy, EarlyView.
Venom immunotherapy (VIT) during pregnancy, when maintenance dose is well tolerated, can be continued. No increased risk of adverse effects to VIT or safety concerns for the pregnancy or the newborns were observed. No decreased efficacy of VIT, in case of re‐stings, was reported.

Unique trophoblast chromatin environment mediated by the PcG protein SFMBT2

Biology Open, 2019
Stem/progenitor cells are maintained by a chromatin environment, mediated in part by Polycomb group (PcG) proteins, which depress differentiation.

Hyperactivation and Tyrosine Phosphorylation of Cryopreserved Stallion Spermatozoa in Relation to Conventional In Vitro Fertilization Blastocyst Production

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Challenges in establishing clinical conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) in horses include variation in sperm and oocyte quality, which can be affected by mare age. Extended preincubation of stallion spermatozoa has resulted in successful IVF.

A Spotlight on Yolk‐sac Tumors: Molecular Pathology, Current Diagnostics, and Novel Therapeutics

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Yolk‐sac tumors are an aggressive subtype of testicular cancer that significantly contribute to disease progression and therapy resistance, especially in adults. While testicular cancer generally has high cure rates with cisplatin‐based treatment, adult yolk‐sac tumors often appear as components of mixed tumors with poor response to

The effect of antihypertensive treatment on longitudinal changes in PLGF and sFlt‐1 in women with new onset hypertension in pregnancy

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
In pregnant women with new‐onset hypertension starting antihypertensives, some achieve tight BP control within a week (Group 1‐blue line), while others respond slower (Group 2‐red line). Group 1 showed higher Log10PLGF levels, but Log10sFlt‐1 did not differ between groups. Over time, Log10PLGF declined in both groups, while Log10sFlt‐1 remained stable.
