Contractile properties of human placental anchoring villi.
The presence of myofibroblasts arranged parallel to the longitudinal axes of anchoring villi of the placenta has previously been described. Furthermore, it has been suggested that intraplacental blood volume, and hence fetal-maternal oxygen-nutrient exchange, may in part be regulated through the longitudinal contraction of anchoring villi. We demonstrate here that anchoring villi have the abili...
متن کاملGlucose transporters expression in the placental terminal villi of preeclampsia and intrauterine growth retardation complicated pregnancies
Introduction: Transmembrane sodium-independent glucose transporters (GLUTs) play an important role in both placental and fetal development by the providing transplacental glucose transport. Abnormal GLUT-1 and GLUT-3 placental expression could play a role in such late pregnancy complications development as preeclampsia and intrauterine growth retardation. Materials and Methods: Immunohistochemi...
متن کاملMiR-570 inhibits cell proliferation and glucose metabolism by targeting IRS1 and IRS2 in human chronic myelogenous leukemia
Objective(s): Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder characterized by the accumulation of myeloid cells with a chromosomal translocation known as the Philadelphia chromosome. In this study, we investigated the roles of miR-570 in CML development. Materials and Methods: Expression of miR-570 in CML samples and cell lines was determined by qRT-PCR. Glucose upt...
متن کاملPlacental glucose transporter gene expression and metabolism in the rat.
In situ hybridization was used to evaluate patterns of gene expression for glucose transporters 1-4 (GT1-4) in the rat uteroplacenta from the time of implantation through term, and in vivo regional placental glucose metabolism was measured by 14C-labeled 2-deoxyglucose uptake. GT1 mRNA was highly abundant and GT3 was barely detected in the postimplantation decidual reaction. GT1 and 3 mRNAs wer...
متن کاملIn Vitro Infection of Trypanosoma cruzi Causes Decrease in Glucose Transporter Protein-1 (GLUT1) Expression in Explants of Human Placental Villi Cultured under Normal and High Glucose Concentrations
Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiologic Chagas' disease agent, induces changes in protein pattern of the human placenta syncytiotrophoblast. The glucose transporter protein-1 (GLUT1) is the primary isoform involved in transplacental glucose transport. We carried out in vitro assays to determine if T. cruzi infection would induce changes in placental GLUT1 protein expression under normal and high conce...
