Trophoblasts express Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3). The artificial TLR3 ligand, PolyI:C, induces an inflammatory response in trophoblasts but an endogenous ligand has not been identified. Notably, inflammatory disorders of pregnancy are associated with increased circulating placenta-derived mRNA. Endogenous degraded, uncapped mRNA is recognized by TLR3 in other cell lines.We tested the hypothesis that...
Preeclampsia is characterized by a systemic inflammatory response involving cytokines, chemokines, and anti-angiogenic factors such as sFLT-1. In many other inflammatory diseases related responses are triggered by toll-like receptor (TLR) stimulation. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that TLR stimulation of a trophoblast cell line induces inflammatory mediator production and, in particular, production...
The purpose was to determine if acute plasma volume expansion (PVE) changed red-cell pulmonary transit time (PTT) during severe exercise. Twelve endurance athletes performed 6.5 min of severe cycling exercise on different days. Pentaspan [(500 ml, infusion condition, I] or placebo [(60 ml saline), non-infusion condition, N] were infused prior to exercise. Blood gas tensions, PTT, multigated acquisition...
