Developmental Expression and Glucocorticoid Control of the Leptin Receptor in Fetal Ovine Lung. [PDF]

, 2015
The effects of endogenous and synthetic glucocorticoids on fetal lung maturation are well-established, although the role of leptin in lung development before birth is unclear. This study examined mRNA and protein levels of the signalling long-form leptin

Prediction of intrapartum Cesarean delivery for non‐reassuring fetal status after a successful external cephalic version by a low pre‐version pulsatility index of the fetal middle cerebral artery [PDF]

Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2006
AbstractObjectiveTo determine whether a pre‐version Doppler assessment of fetal cerebral and umbilical blood flow can predict the ultimate need for intrapartum Cesarean delivery after a successful external cephalic version (ECV).MethodsA prospective observational study on women undergoing ECV between 36 and 38 gestational weeks was performed over a 5 ...

External Cephalic Version—A Chance for Vaginal Delivery at Breech Presentation

Medicina, 2022
Background and Objectives: In recent years, the rate of caesarean section (CS) has increased constantly. Although vaginal breech delivery has a long history, breech presentation has become the third most common indication for CS.

Investigating the cell of origin and novel molecular targets in Merkel cell carcinoma: a historic misnomer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study indicates that Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) does not originate from Merkel cells, and identifies gene, protein & cellular expression of immune‐linked and neuroendocrine markers in primary and metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) tumor samples, linked to Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) status, with enrichment of B‐cell and other immune cell

Complex epithelial remodeling underlie the fusion event in early fetal development of the human penile urethra. [PDF]

, 2016
We recently described a two-step process of urethral plate canalization and urethral fold fusion to form the human penile urethra. Canalization ("opening zipper") opens the solid urethral plate into a groove, and fusion ("closing zipper") closes the ...

Emerging role of ARHGAP29 in melanoma cell phenotype switching

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study gives first insights into the role of ARHGAP29 in malignant melanoma. ARHGAP29 was revealed to be connected to tumor cell plasticity, promoting a mesenchymal‐like, invasive phenotype and driving tumor progression. Further, it modulates cell spreading by influencing RhoA/ROCK signaling and affects SMAD2 activity. Rho GTPase‐activating protein

Systematic analysis of single- and multi-reference adaptive filters for non-invasive fetal electrocardiography

Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2020
Non-invasive fetal electrocardiography (ECG) has been a research challenge for the past few decades. Due to instrumental noise and the spectral overlap of the maternal ECG signal, the signal-to-noise ratio for fetal ECG is very low.

The endogenous production of hydrogen sulphide in intrauterine tissues [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Hydrogen sulphide is a gas signalling molecule which is produced endogenously from L-cysteine via the enzymes cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) and cystathionine gamma-lyase (CSE).

PYCR1 inhibition in bone marrow stromal cells enhances bortezomib sensitivity in multiple myeloma cells by altering their metabolism

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study investigated how PYCR1 inhibition in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) indirectly affects multiple myeloma (MM) cell metabolism and viability. Culturing MM cells in conditioned medium from PYCR1‐silenced BMSCs impaired oxidative phosphorylation and increased sensitivity to bortezomib.

A dataset of synthetic, maturation-informed magnetic resonance images of the human fetal brain

Scientific Data
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful modality for investigating abnormal developmental patterns in utero. However, since it is not the first-line diagnostic tool in this sensitive population, data remain scarce and heterogeneous across scanners
