Hepcidin and iron species distribution inside the first-trimester human gestational sac
We have investigated factors affecting iron distribution in the first-trimester gestational sac, by the measurement of transferrin, non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) and pro-hepcidin (Hep) in maternal serum, coelomic fluid (CF) and amniotic fluid (AF) and by immunostaining for Hep in villous and secondary yolk sac biopsies. These samples were obtained from 15 first-trimester pregnancies at 8-11...
متن کاملRelationships between TGFβ Proteins and Oxygen Concentrations Inside the First Trimester Human Gestational Sac
In early pregnancy, the O(2) gradient between the maternal circulation and the gestational sac tissues modulates trophoblast biological functions. The aim was to evaluate if placental partial pressure of oxygen (PaO(2)) modulates in vivo synthesis of specific placental proteins inside the first trimester gestational sac. Matched samples of peripheral venous blood, blood from the placental bed (...
متن کاملPlacental endothelin gene expression and endothelin concentration in fetal fluids of the first trimester gestational sac.
We have investigated the distribution of immunoreactive endothelins (irET) in fetal fluids and expression of ET precursor genes in villous tissue during the first trimester. Samples of maternal plasma (n = 6), coelomic fluid (n = 28), amniotic fluid (n = 23) and villous tissue (n = 3) were obtained from 30 pregnancies immediately before surgical termination at 7-12 weeks gestation. irET concent...
متن کاملPnm-25: The Correlation Between Hemotocrit of the First Trimester of Pregnancy with Gestational Diabetes
Background: Early diagnosis of gestational diabetes is one of the most important applications of taking care of during pregnancy. The current study was done to find the correlation between hemotocrit in the first trimester of pregnancy with gestational diabetes in women who referred to Milad Hospital in Tehran in 2009-2010. Materials and Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted on 700 ...
متن کاملProtein and enzyme patterns in the fluid cavities of the first trimester gestational sac: relevance to the absorptive role of secondary yolk sac.
The potential absorptive role of the yolk sac membrane was evaluated by examining protein and enzyme patterns in embryonic fluids and by comparing the synthetic capacity of the secondary yolk sac, fetal liver and placenta for human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) and alpha-fetoprotein (alphaFP). In yolk sac fluid samples, protein electrophoresis showed two main electrophoretic bands with mobiliti...
