Stereotypical alterations in cortical patterning are associated with maternal illness-induced placental dysfunction.
We have previously shown in mice that cytokine-mediated damage to the placenta can temporarily limit the flow of nutrients and oxygen to the fetus. The placental vulnerability is pronounced before embryonic day 11, when even mild immune challenge results in fetal loss. As gestation progresses, the placenta becomes increasingly resilient to maternal inflammation, but there is a narrow window in ...
متن کاملIntrauterine growth restriction is associated with alterations in placental lipoprotein receptors and maternal lipoprotein composition.
Among other factors, fetal growth requires maternal supply of cholesterol. Cellular cholesterol uptake is mainly mediated by the LDL receptor (LDL-R) and the scavenger receptor family. We hypothesized that expression levels of key receptors of these families were regulated differently in placentas from IUGR pregnancies with varying degrees of severity. Third-trimester placentas from IUGR pregna...
متن کاملPamidronate attenuates diastolic dysfunction induced by myocardial infarction associated with changes in geometric patterning.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of pamidronate on ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction. METHODS Male Wistar rats were assigned to four groups: a sham group, in which animals were submitted to simulated surgery and received weekly subcutaneous injection of saline (S group; n=14); a group in which animals received weekly subcutaneous injection o...
متن کاملPsychopathic traits are associated with cortical and subcortical volume alterations in healthy individuals.
Research suggests psychopathy is associated with structural brain alterations that may contribute to the affective and interpersonal deficits frequently observed in individuals with high psychopathic traits. However, the regional alterations related to different components of psychopathy are still unclear. We used voxel-based morphometry to characterize the structural correlates of psychopathy ...
متن کاملMaternal Pre-Pregnancy Obesity Is Associated with Altered Placental Transcriptome
Maternal obesity has a major impact on pregnancy outcomes. There is growing evidence that maternal obesity has a negative influence on placental development and function, thereby adversely influencing offspring programming and health outcomes. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes are poorly understood. We analysed ten term placenta's whole transcriptomes in obese (n = 5)...
