(Elsevier, 2011)
Workshops are an important part of the IFPA annual meeting. At IFPA Meeting 2010 diverse topics were
discussed in twelve themed workshops, six of which are summarized in this report. 1. The placental
pathology workshop ...
Differential infectivity of two Trypanosoma cruzi strains in placental cells and tissue
(Elsevier B.V., 2018)
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Congenital Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), has become epidemiologically relevant. The probability of congenital transmission depends on the maternal and developing fetal/newborn ...
Melatonin and vitamin C increase umbilical blood flow via nitric oxide-dependent mechanisms
(2010)
Inadequate umbilical blood flow leads to intrauterine growth restriction, a major killer in perinatal medicine today. Nitric oxide (NO) is important in the maintenance of umbilical blood flow, and antioxidants increase NO ...
Functional transplantation of chloride channels from the human syncytiotrophoblast microvillous membrane to Xenopus oocytes
(2002)
The materno-fetal transfer of metabolites and nutrients requires the operation of specific transport mechanisms through syncytiotrophoblast membranes. Electrophysiological studies on these cells are scarce and, because of ...
VEGF in the muscular layer of placental blood vessels: Immuno-expression in preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restrictrion and its association with the antioxidant status
(2010)
The pathophysiology of preeclampsia (PE), a disorder occurring in 5% of all pregnancies, remains largely unknown, but early placental hypoxia and oxidative stress are known to be involved in the mechanism of the syndrome. ...
Barium, Tea and Sodium Sensitive Potassium Channels are Present in the Human Placental Syncytiotrophoblast Apical Membrane
(W B SAUNDERS CO LTD, 2008-10)
The human placental syncytiotrophoblast (hSTB) is a polarized epithelial structure, without paracellular
routes, forming the main barrier for materno–fetal exchange. There is ample evidence suggesting the
presence of ...
Alteraciones morfológicas en placentas de madres expuestas a pesticidas
(Hospital Clínico Universidad de Chile, 2010)
Several studies had stablished a correlation between prenatal exposure to pesticides and congenital malformations in the newborn. The interest of the investigators has been centered in the possibles mechanisms of these ...
