Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The avian node is the equivalent of the amphibian Spemann's organizer, as indicated by its ability to induce a secondary axis, cellular contribution, and gene expression, whereas the node of the mouse, which displays limited inductive capacities, was suggested to be a part of spatially distributed signaling.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Breaking radial symmetry for anterior–posterior axis formation is one of the key developmental steps of vertebrate gastrulation and is established through a succession of transient domains defined by morphology or gene expression. Three such domains were interpreted recently in the rabbit to be part of a “three‐anchor‐point model” for axis ...

The Fetal Allograft Revisited: Does the Study of an Ancient Invertebrate Species Shed Light on the Role of Natural Killer Cells at the Maternal-Fetal Interface? [PDF]
, 2008 Human pregnancy poses a fundamental immunological problem because the placenta and fetus are genetically different from the host mother. Classical transplantation theory has not provided a plausible solution to this problem.

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 206-214, April 2025.Abstract Objective Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are recognized to have a pivotal role in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, we assessed the vascular function of women with RPL and examined the association with each type of aPL.

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) can result in increased placental lesions related to high maternal blood glucose, but these relationships are not well understood. Objective To examine the relationship between GDM and placental vascular malperfusion lesions: accelerated villous maturation, increased syncytial knots, delayed ...

Decidual Macrophages Are Significantly Increased in Spontaneous Miscarriages and Over-Express FasL [PDF]
, 2012 Decidual macrophages (DM) are the second most abundant population in the fetal-maternal interface. Their role has been so far identified as being local immuno-modulators favoring the maternal tolerance to the fetus.
