Placental pathology reports contain valuable information that can influence maternal and neonatal health care however they are not always readily available to clinicians. While clinicians value ...
When Mana Parast was a medical resident in 2003, she had an experience that would change the course of her entire career: her first fetal autopsy. The autopsy, which pushed Parast to pursue perinatal ...
Researchers at Wakayama Medical University in Japan have discovered that amyloid-β deposits disrupt the formation of the placenta and may therefore contribute to the development of preeclampsia during ...
The placenta never fails to amaze. The conventions that we take for granted as required for the normal formation and function of other organs are often flouted by placental trophoblasts, the ...
Researchers found that low oxygen in preeclamptic placentas increases BACE1 activity and amyloid-β production. These proteins ...
The discovery of a gene essential to early embryonic development sheds light on the preliminary stages of human placenta formation. A team led by scientists from the University of California San Diego ...
Pregnancy is often described as a miracle, and that is indeed true. Inside you, a new life develops with the support of an extraordinary organ, i.e., the placenta. But what makes this organ function ...
In a recent study published in the journal Scientific Reports, researchers investigate the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on placental development. Study: Influence of ...
