The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between plasma concentration of cell-free pregnancy-associated placenta-specific microRNAs and clinical variables (placental weight, maternal body mass index, and neonatal birth weight). Circulating levels of cell-free pregnancy-associated placenta-specific microRNAs (miR-515-3p, miR-517a, miR-517c and miR-518b) in maternal plasma were measured...
Independent of their role in apoptosis, cellular inhibitors of apoptosis (cIAP) 1 and 2, have emerged as regulators of inflammation. Obesity in pregnancy is characterised by maternal and placental inflammation. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of maternal obesity and pro-inflammatory mediators on cIAP expression in human placenta.The expression of cIAP was assessed in human...
Heparin is often prescribed during pregnancy with the intention of improving perinatal outcomes on the basis that it exerts an anticoagulant action in the inter-villous space. Accumulating in-vitro and in-vivo evidence indicates that heparin's beneficial effects in pregnancy may result from ‘non-anticoagulant’ effects including the promotion of angiogenesis.To study the effect of heparin within the...
