Normal pregnancy (NP) involves intricate processes starting with egg fertilization,
proceeding to embryo implantation, placentation and gestation, and culminating in …

Placentation is a major determinant of the success of pregnancy. It is regulated by several
factors such as cell adhesion molecules, tight junctions, and gap junctions. The cell …

Activin A promotes human trophoblast invasion during the first trimester of pregnancy and is
associated with preeclampsia and pregnancy‐induced hypertension (PE/PIH) in naturally …

Introduction A disintegrin and metalloproteinase 8 (ADAM8), a crucial regulator in
macrophages, is closely associated with cardiovascular disease progression. Objectives …

Mitochondrial dynamics are involved in many cellular events, including the proliferation,

Normal function of placental extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs), which are responsible for
uteroplacental vascular remodeling, is critical for adequate delivery of oxygen and nutrients …

Whilst S100P has been shown to be a marker for carcinogenesis, we have shown, in non-
physio-pathological states, that its expression promotes trophoblast motility and invasion but …

Abstract Research question lncRNA IGF2-AS may be related to early pregnancy loss. Does
