The objective of the study was to identify the profile of circulating C19MC microRNAs (miR-516-5p, miR-517*, miR-518b, miR-520a*, miR-520h, miR-525, and miR-526a) in patients with established preeclampsia (n=63), fetal growth restriction... more
Background: Uterine rupture achieves a solution of continuity of the thickness of the wall of the womb. It can be spontaneous or provoked. It can occur during work (most often) or during pregnancy. In all cases, although this occurs in... more
Recently we described a mouse model, BPH/5, that spontaneously develops the hallmark clinical features of preeclampsia. BPH/5 exhibit impaired placentation before the onset of hypertension and proteinuria, supporting a causal role for the... more

Using both a radioimmunoassay and a radioreceptor assay, we have estimated the content of mouse epidermal growth factor-urogastrone (EGF-URO) in fetal mice at 11½ to 17½ days of gestation. Concurrently, the amount of specific EGF-URO... more
Malaria in pregnancy predisposes to maternal anemia and low birth weight (LBW). We examined the possible roles of the cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and gamma interferon (IFN-γ) in these adverse outcomes. We measured... more
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... more
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a common and potentially severe pregnancy complication. Currently there is no treatment available. The guinea pig is an attractive model of human pregnancy as placentation is morphologically very similar... more
Context: The variability of human fetal growth is multifactorial. Twin and family studies demonstrate that genetic determinants influence normal fetal growth, but the responsible genetic polymorphisms are unknown.Objective: The objective... more
Background It is unclear whether the high rates of low birth weight in South Asia are due to poor fetal growth or short pregnancy duration. Also, it is not known whether the traditional focus on preventing low birth weight has been... more
Introduction and Aim: Fetal growth is a dynamic process that must be monitored in pregnant women to reduce the long-term consequences of fetal anomalies and post-natal effects on their life. The current study was aimed to find out the... more
