This study was designed to elucidate the effects of meluadrine tartrate on oxytocin-induced uterine contraction and maternal hemodynamics in unanesthetized, chronically instrumented pregnant goats. After the administration of meluadrine tartrate or ritodrine hydrochloride to pregnant goats, changes in heart rate (HR), arterial blood pressure (AOP), and arterial blood pH and gasses (P(O2) and P(...
ATP has been reported to enhance the membrane conductance of myometrial cells and uterine contractility. Purinergic P2 receptor expression has been reported in the myometrium, using molecular biology, but the functional identity of the receptor subtype has not been determined. In this study, ATP-induced currents were recorded and characterized in single myometrial cells from pregnant rats using...
OBJECTIVE To compare the Koala air-charged coupled catheter (Clinical Innovations, Inc., Murray, Utah) for monitoring intrauterine pressure (IUP) during active labor with an electronic pressure transducer-tip catheter, Intran Plus (Utah Medical Products, Midvale, Utah). STUDY DESIGN Simultaneous recordings with Koala and Intran catheters bound together at their tips were made in 18 term patie...
This article proposes a method for modeling and classification apply on the uterine contractions in the electromyogram (EMG) signal for the detection of preterm birth. The frequency content of the contraction changes from one woman to another and during pregnancy. Firstly we apply an AR model on the Uterine EMG signal for the calculation of the ai parameters. Wavelet decomposition is used to ex...
BACKGROUND Gap junctions increase in size and abundance coincident with parturition, forming an intercellular communication network that permits the uterus to develop the forceful, coordinated contractions necessary for delivery of the fetus. Lindane, a pesticide used in the human and veterinary treatment of scabies and lice as well as in agricultural applications, inhibits uterine contractions...
The contribution of endothelium-linked mechanisms to the contraction induced by 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) was investigated in the isolated human uterine artery. 5-HT contracted the uterine artery concentration-dependently. Removal of the endothelium or treatment with the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin potentiated the contractile response to 5-HT. The nitric oxide synthase inhibitor L-N(...
In polytocous animals, blastocysts are evenly distributed along each uterine horn and implant. The molecular mechanisms underlying these precise events remain elusive. We recently showed that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) has critical roles in the establishment of early pregnancy by affecting embryo spacing and subsequent implantation through its receptor, LPA3. Targeted deletion of Lpa3 in mice ...
OBJECTIVE We aimed to evaluate the performance of a non-invasive EMG electrical uterine monitor (EUM) versus tocodynamometry (TOCO) by comparing both to internal uterine pressure catheter (IUPC). STUDY DESIGN Prospective observational trial. Uterine activity was recorded continuously and simultaneously, in women during active term labor, with TOCO, EUM and IUPC. Uterine activity tracings were...
Objective: Premature uterine contractions represent one of the major symptoms related to preterm labor. So far, primary prevention of preterm labor is based on the early identification of symptoms and on pharmacological treatments which are prone of several secondary effects. In this double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, the efficacy of a supplementation of magnesium and alpha-l...
Pregnancy is associated with a significant increase in uterine blood flow which contributes to optimal fetal development. Although neuropeptide Y (NPY) is considered to be an important regulator of uterine blood flow, it is not known whether: (i) products from the vascular endothelium modulate NPY action in the uterine artery; (ii) pregnancy changes the responsiveness of the uterine artery to N...
