Silencing of Nrf Genes in the Human Placenta as Measured by SDS-PAGE and Western Blotting Techniques

Researchers reported the presence of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor (Nrf)1, Nrf2 and Nrf3 proteins in both human primary trophoblast and human trophoblast choriocarcinoma cell line (BeWo).

Relationship between Donor-Specific HPA-15 Antibodies and Poor Graft Function in HPA-15 Mismatched Cord Blood Transplantation

Investigators encountered a case of human platelet antigen 15 (HPA-15) mismatched cord blood transplantation with a high HPA-15b antibody titer. Prolonged poor graft function and megakaryocyte aplasia with sustained high-titer HPA-15b antibodies were attenuated by rituximab therapy, and rapid recovery of hematopoiesis was achieved.

Mapping the Cord Blood Transcriptome of Pregnancies Affected by Early Maternal Anemia to Identify Signatures of Fetal Programming

Researchers leveraged global transcriptome- and accompanying epigenome-wide changes in 48 umbilical cord blood (UCB) from newborns of early pregnancy (EP)-anemic Tanzanian mothers and 50 controls to identify differentially expressed genes in UCB exposed to maternal EP-anemia.

The Effect of Progesterone Administration on the Expression of Metastasis Tumor Antigens (MTA1 and MTA3) in Placentas of Normal and Dexamethasone-Treated Rats

A group of genes called MTAs play a role in proliferation and apoptosis. MTA1 upregulates trophoblasts proliferation and differentiation, while MTA3 downregulates proliferation and induces apoptosis. Researchers hypothesized that during IUGR, placental MTA1 decreased and MTA3 increased and this was reversed by P4 treatment.
