The impact of COVID-19 during pregnancy on fetal brain development
The development of the brain as the most complex structure of the human body is a long process that begins in the third week of pregnancy and continues until adulthood and even until the end of life (1). Human brain myelination begins one to two months before birth in the visual system and eventually lasts until the age of two in other sensory systems and then the motor systems (4). Processes a...
متن کاملFetal exposure to placental corticotropin-releasing hormone is associated with child self-reported internalizing symptoms.
OBJECTIVE Fetal exposure to maternal prenatal stress hormones such as cortisol exerts influences on the developing nervous system that persist and include risk for internalizing symptoms later in life. Placental corticotropin-releasing hormone (pCRH) is a feto-placental stress signal that also shapes fetal neurodevelopment and may be a more direct indicator of the fetal experience than maternal...
متن کاملO-37: Pseudomalignant Nature of Placenta during Normal and Pathological Gestation Is Regulated by Epigenetic Mechanisms which Can be Exploited To Design Non-Invasive Fetal Dna Markers
Background Placentation shares many analogues with the development of tumors such as rapid proliferation, invasiveness, gene expression profiles especially the expression of tumor suppressor genes, oncogenes and matrixmetallo proteinases (MMPs). Thus, a placenta has been described as a pseudomalignant tissue. However, placentation is tightly regulated and any deregulation of this pseudomalignan...
متن کاملCompetition for Materno-Fetal Resource Partitioning in a Rabbit Model of Undernourished Pregnancy
The major goal of animal production is to obtain abundant and healthy meat for consumers. Maternal food restriction (MFR) is often applied in farms to reduce production costs. However, the suitability of MFR in livestock animals is questionable, as this management may compromise maternal fitness due to a severe negative energetic balance and can induce Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) and...
متن کاملPlacental Responses to Changes in the Maternal Environment Determine Fetal Growth
Placental responses to maternal perturbations are complex and remain poorly understood. Altered maternal environment during pregnancy such as hypoxia, stress, obesity, diabetes, toxins, altered nutrition, inflammation, and reduced utero-placental blood flow may influence fetal development, which can predispose to diseases later in life. The placenta being a metabolically active tissue responds ...
