Maternal hypothyroxinemia influences glucose transporter expression in fetal brain and placenta.
The influence of maternal hypothyroxinemia on the expression of the glucose transporters, GLUT1 and GLUT3, in rat fetal brain and placenta was investigated. Fetal growth was retarded in hypothyroxinemic pregnancies, but only before the onset of fetal thyroid hormone synthesis. Placental weights were normal, but placental total protein concentration was reduced at 19 days gestation (dg). Immunob...
متن کاملReproduction – fetal development, placenta and maternal physiology
Rudolf Cardinal, 22/24 Nov 1998 Implantation and the decidual response • Implantation in humans and some other species is invasive – the uterine surface epithelium is breached and the underlying stroma is invaded. (In yet other species, the epithelium remains intact with the fetal and maternal epithelia in close contact.) • The blastocyst makes a signal (unknown) which induces a stromal respons...
متن کاملMaternal hypothyroxinemia disrupts neurotransmitter metabolic enzymes in developing brain.
Maternal thyroid status influences early brain development and, consequently, cognitive and motor function in humans and rats. The biochemical targets of maternal thyroid hormone (TH) action in fetal brain remain poorly defined. A partially thyroidectomized rat dam model was therefore used to investigate the influence of maternal hypothyroxinemia on the specific activities of cholinergic and mo...
متن کاملMaternal and fetal influences on blood pressure.
To study maternal and fetal influences on blood pressure in childhood 405 children aged 4 years who were born and still resident in the Salisbury health district were visited at home for blood pressure and growth measurements. Information on the pregnancy, delivery, and baby was abstracted from the routine obstetric notes. Similar to recent findings in adults, the child's systolic pressure was ...
متن کاملMaternal Nodal inversely affects NODAL and STOX1 expression in the fetal placenta
Nodal, a secreted signaling protein from the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β)-super family plays a vital role during early embryonic development. Recently, it was found that maternal decidua-specific Nodal knockout mice show intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and preterm birth. The chromosomal location of NODAL is in the same linkage area as the placental (fetal) pre-eclampsia (PE) s...
