Labour induces increased concentrations of biglycan and hyaluronan in human fetal membranes.

OBJECTIVE The proteoglycan decorin stabilizes collagen whereas biglycan and hyaluronan disrupt well-organized collagen. The aim was to compare hyaluronan and proteoglycans in human fetal membranes obtained before and after spontaneous labour at term. STUDY DESIGN Prelabour samples of fetal membranes (N=9) were obtained from elective caesarean sections and regionally sampled from over the cerv...

Expression of nephrin in the human placenta and fetal membranes.

Nephrin is the signature molecule in the podocyte of the glomerulus that forms the renal slit diaphragm, the main functional unit of the glomerulus. The present study focused on the expression of nephrin in the human placenta, which may also have a role in filtration and the maintenance of homeostasis in the kidneys. A total of nine placentas from normal healthy pregnant females at full term we...

Thrombomodulin in human gestational tissues: placenta, fetal membranes and myometrium.

PURPOSE In intervillous space, thrombomodulin (TM) can be a key component of the protein C anticoagulant pathway that controls the balance between coagulation and anticoagulation/ /fibrinolysis via activation of protein C (APC). In our working hypothesis we assume that not only TM from the placenta, but also TM from myometrium might be engaged in this protective mechanism. To determine whether ...

Weakening and Rupture of Human Fetal Membranes – Biochemistry and Biomechanics

In spite of advances in the quality of prenatal care, management of high-risk pregnancies and treatment strategies targeting prevention of preterm births, the rate of preterm births in the US has continued to rise over the last two decades and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Care of preterm infants also poses a significant financial burden on limited health care resources. Infa...

Effects of diclofenac, aceclofenac and meloxicam on the metabolism of proteoglycans and hyaluronan in osteoarthritic human cartilage.

1. Since nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may impair the ability of the chondrocyte to repair its damaged extracellular matrix, we explored the changes in the metabolism of newly synthesized proteoglycan and hyaluronan (HA) molecules produced by aceclofenac, diclofenac and meloxicam in human osteoarthritic (OA) cartilage. 2. Explants were sampled from the medial femoral condyle and...
