Radial capacity and hemodynamics evaluation in vitro and implantable feasibility validation in vivo of thinner bioresorbable polymer vascular stents

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A series of in vitro experiments, numerical simulations and in vivo experiments were conducted to jointly evaluate the effects of different thicknesses of bioabsorbable polymer vascular stents on their radial capacity, hemodynamics and in vivo outcomes.

Placental crises: disruptive selection and maternal under‐investment as the foundations of mammalian placental evolution and dysfunction

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among the vertebrates, mammals are notable for the dominance of live birth and placental nutrition. The structural diversity of the mammalian placenta is remarkable, despite sharing a single common ancestor and conserved physiological functions.

Effects of Circulating and Local Uteroplacental Angiotensin II in Rat Pregnancy.

, 2010
The renin-angiotensin (Ang) system is important during placental development. Dysregulation of the renin-Ang system is important in preeclampsia (PE). Female rats transgenic for the human angiotensinogen gene crossed with males transgenic for the human ...

Bridging maternal effects and epitranscriptomics: A novel perspective in developmental biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Maternal effects, encompassing both genetic (maternally expressed gene products) and non‐genetic (maternal state) influences, are powerful determinants of offspring phenotype, yet their RNA‐level mechanisms remain incompletely resolved. In parallel, epitranscriptomics, an emerging field centered on chemical modifications to RNA, has revealed ...

Impact of donor mare and stallion identity on the likelihood of pregnancy after transfer of in vitro produced embryos

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The success of in vitro embryo production (IVEP) is influenced by donor mare and stallion. Objectives To determine whether donor mare and stallion influence the pregnancy rate after transfer of in vitro produced (IVP) blastocysts and to identify factors influencing the likelihood of obtaining one or more pregnancies from a single ...

Genetic sex determination of mice by simplex PCR

Biology of Sex Differences, 2017
Background Investigating fetal development in mice necessitates the determination of fetal sex. However, whilst the sex of adult and juvenile mice can be readily distinguished from anogenital distance, the sex of fetal and neonatal mice cannot be ...

Molecular Tumor Boards in Malignant Melanoma: Uncovering Challenges and Opportunities in a Bicenter Retrospective Analysis in Germany

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Molecular tumor boards (MTB), interdisciplinary teams that use tumor genomic data to guide personalized treatment decisions, have emerged as a promising strategy in melanoma care, although their real‐world clinical impact remains uncertain. This retrospective study evaluated advanced melanoma patients to assess molecularly guided treatment ...

KRT18 regulates trophoblast cell migration and invasion which are essential for embryo implantation

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2023
Female infertility is a worldwide concern that impacts the quality of life and well-being of affected couples. Failure of embryo implantation is a major cause of early pregnancy loss and is precisely regulated by a programmed molecular mechanism.

Inhibition of Akt activity and calcium channel function coordinately drive cell-cell fusion in the BeWO choriocarcinoma placental cell line [PDF]

, 2012
To establish a simple and quantitative live cell fusion assay for placental syncytialization, we generated stable GFP and dsRed expressing fusogenic BeWo cell lines.

The 9th Edition of the UICC TNM Classification of Malignant Tumours: Updates and Rationale for Change

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The standard for assessing and recording the extent of the tumour, a necessity for most malignancies, is the Tumour Node Metastases (TNM) classification. The Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) TNM committee has defined this since the early 1950s.
