Sirtuin1 protects endothelial Caveolin-1 expression and preserves endothelial function via suppressing miR-204 and endoplasmic reticulum stress. [PDF]
Sirtuin1 (Sirt1) is a class III histone deacetylase that regulates a variety of physiological processes, including endothelial function. Caveolin1 (Cav1) is also an important determinant of endothelial function. We asked if Sirt1 governs endothelial Cav1

Trophoblast lineage-specific differentiation and associated alterations in preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction. [PDF]
The human placenta is a poorly-understood organ, but one that is critical for proper development and growth of the fetus in-utero. The epithelial cell type that contributes to primary placental functions is called "trophoblast," including two main ...

A possible new approach in the prediction of late gestational hypertension: The role of the fetal aortic intima-media thickness [PDF]
The aim was to determine the predictive role of combined screening for late-onset gestational hypertension by fetal ultrasound measurements, third trimester uterine arteries (UtAs) Doppler imaging, and maternal history.

A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...

The Association between Fetal Renal Artery Doppler Flow with Hourly Urine Output and Amniotic Fluid Volume of Fetuses with a Gestational Age of 30 to 34 Weeks [PDF]
Background: The present study investigated the association between fetal renal artery Doppler flow, hourly urine output, and amniotic fluid volume in fetuses with a gestational age of 30 to 34 weeks in normal pregnancies.

Blood flow-induced Notch activation and endothelial migration enable vascular remodeling in zebrafish embryos. [PDF]
Arteries and veins are formed independently by different types of endothelial cells (ECs). In vascular remodeling, arteries and veins become connected and some arteries become veins. It is unclear how ECs in transforming vessels change their type and how
