Hepatocyte Growth Factor
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) exerts biological activity through the Met receptor tyrosine kinase. HGF plays essential roles in the embryonic development of the liver and placenta, and in the migration of myogenic precursor cells. In mature tissues, HGF plays roles in tissue protection and regeneration, including in the liver and kidney. HGF participates in invasion, metastasis, and drug resis...
متن کاملNeurodevelopment after fetal growth restriction.
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) can emerge as a complication of placental dysfunction and increases the risk for neurodevelopmental delay. Marked elevations of umbilical artery (UA) Doppler resistance that set the stage for cardiovascular and biophysical deterioration with subsequent preterm birth characterize early-onset FGR. Minimal, or absent UA Doppler abnormalities and isolated cerebral Dop...
متن کاملEarly onset fetal growth restriction
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) diagnosed before 32 weeks is identified by fetal smallness associated with Doppler abnormalities and is associated with significant perinatal morbidity and mortality and maternal complications. Recent studies have provided new insights into pathophysiology, management options and postnatal outcomes of FGR. In this paper we review the available evidence regarding d...
متن کاملsildenafil citrate in fetal growth restriction
background: pregnancies with early onset fetal growth restriction have poor perinatal outcome. sildenafil citrate (pde -5 inhibitor) as a vasodilator increases uteroplacental blood flow and potentiates fetal growth. case presentation: in this study, a case was examined and sildenafil was administered for her. it was found that sildenafil improved the uterine blood flow with a favorable fetal ou...
متن کاملDiagnosis and Management of Fetal Growth Restriction
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) remains a leading contributor to perinatal mortality and morbidity and metabolic syndrome in later life. Recent advances in ultrasound and Doppler have elucidated several mechanisms in the evolution of the disease. However, consistent classification and characterization regarding the severity of FGR is lacking. There is no cure, and management is reliant on a stru...
