Placental regulation of maternal-fetal interactions and brain development.
A variety prenatal insults are associated with the incidence of neurodevelopmental disorders such as schizophrenia, autism and cerebral palsy. While the precise mechanisms underlying how transient gestational challenges can lead to later life dysfunctions are largely unknown, the placenta is likely to play a key role. The literal interface between maternal and fetal cells resides in the placent...

متن کاملMaternal fetal/placental interactions and abnormal pregnancy outcomes.
Cytotrophoblast cells from the placenta invade the maternal spiral arteries during normal pregnancy. This results in a striking increase in luminal diameter and causes the vessels to lose their smooth muscle enabling the expansion of vascular capacity necessary to support fetal growth. Preeclampsia, growth restriction, recurrent abortion, and preterm birth in many cases are caused by abnormal i...
متن کاملHypertension and Maternal–Fetal Conflict during Placental Malaria
BACKGROUND Malaria and hypertension are major causes of maternal mortality in tropical countries, especially during first pregnancies, but evidence for a relationship between these syndromes is contradictory. METHODS AND FINDINGS In a cross-sectional survey of Tanzanian parturients, the rate of hypertension was similar in placental malaria (PM)-positive (11/85 = 13%) and PM-negative (73/602 =...
متن کاملPlacental Growth, Fetal Growth and Maternal RhE Genotype
The Rh locus is composed of two genes RhD, which encodes the major D antigen and is present only in Rh-positive genomes, and RhCE, which encodes both the Cc and Ee polypeptides, most likely by alternative splicing events. Several membrane components, including Rh proteins and other glycoproteins recently characterized, are probably different subunits of an oligomeric complex with transport func...
