Introduction Glycans expressed in the fetal-maternal interface were shown to exert
immunomodulating effects and to mediate interactions between the cells. The aim of this …

The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of the oligosaccharides of the
glycoconjugates in placentas from pregnancies complicated by different degree of altered …

Impaired placento-fetal communication is a coherent symptom of exaggerated pre-
eclampsia. The impact of the cellular expression of different glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in …

During pregnancy, both the maternal endometrium and the blastocyst have highly
glycosylated proteins with glycosylations controlled in a specific manner. Carbohydrates …

Antihypertensive therapy is an essential part of management of patients with preeclampsia
(PE). Methyldopa (Dopegyt®) and nifedipine (Cordaflex®) are basic medications of therapy …

Changing patterns of glycan distribution are described in porcine placentae at 15, 19, 26,
43, 58, 69 and 109 days gestation, using a carefully selected panel of lectins that allowed …

Recent studies showed that considerable amounts of glycosaminoglycans are released into
maternal blood during normal pregnancy and in hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low …

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related multisystem disorder characterized by altered
trophoblast invasion, oxidative stress, exacerbation of systemic inflammatory response, and …

Introduction Endothelial glycocalyx is a carbohydrate-rich layer lining the luminal side of
blood vessels. Its damage was demonstrated in different groups of critically ill patients …
