Altered microrna expression profiles in bovine fetuses with an assisted reproduction-induced congenital overgrowth syndrome
… global misregulation of transcripts in bovine fetuses with LOS. microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to play important roles in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. There is one study that reports misregulation of one miRNA in BWS and no studies have been done to identify …

Improved Late-gestation Cardiac Morphology in Fetuses of Diabetic Mothers After Maternal Immune Stimulation: Potential Role of Dysregulated Apoptosis
… myocardial ventricular area in late gestation fetuses, as predominant changes seen in the offspring of diabetic dams. Pathologic scoring revealed that maternal immune stimulation, particularly with FCA, in part alleviated fetal heart changes of cavitary dilation and myocardial reduction. …

Indagini strutturali e quantitative durante lo sviluppo del rene mediante l’utilizzo di elaborazione immagini
… up to 41 weeks; subjects were subdivided into: fetuses (gestational age ≤ 24 weeks, n=5), preterms (gestational age ≥25 and ≤ 36 weeks, n=39), and at term (gestational age ≥ 37 weeks, n=18) infants. we found an average podocyte number of 1908 ± 645, 1394 ± 498 and 1126 ± 256 was respectively …

A semiquantitative and qualitative histopathologic assessment of the effect of type II intrauterine growth retardation on the structure of the carotid bodies in fetuses and neonates
… morphological changes in the carotid bodies of fetuses that have been subjected to intrauterine growth retardation. The carotid bodies from 72 fetuses with a gestational age between thirty and forty weeks were removed from the archived autopsy material, and differential cell counts were …

Fetal responsiveness to auditory and tactile stimulation
… examined for the second- and third-trimester fetuses (second-trimester ≤ 27 gestational weeks (wGA), third- trimester >27 wGA), in both experiments, respectively.<br/><br/>Experiment 1 of this thesis examined fetal behavioural responses to the mother’s recorded and live voice, contrasting …

Morphological effects of pulsed Doppler diagnostic ultrasound on rat adult lung and fetal tissues : a thesis presented in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Physiology and Anatomy at Massey University
… at other sites. The percentage of exposed fetuses with haemorrhage is significant. A threshold for fetal haemorrhage could not be determined because a significant variation due to age within each exposure group affected the results. The oldest 21 and 22 day old fetuses had no lung …

Il ruolo dell'ecografia prenatale nell'infezione congenita da Citomegalovirus
… infection. STUDY DESIGN: The sonograms of 650 fetuses from mothers with primary cytomegalovirus infection were correlated to fetal/neonatal outcome. Infection status was disclosed by viral urine isolation at birth or CMV tissue inclusions at autopsy. Classification of symptomatic disease was …

Development of Mouse Embryos in Vitro and in Vivo, Following Mechanical Division
… of fractional embryos to develop into live fetuses. When embryos were divided in half at the 2-cell, 4-cell, 8-cell and morula stage, a higher percentage of blastocysts developed in vitro from half 8-cell embryos (93%), than from embryos divided at the other cell stages. When half embryos …

An assessment of the role of Doppler ultrasound velocity waveform analysis of the umbilical artery in the diagnosis of fetal distress in labour
… of perinatal hypoxia. Results: Twenty seven fetuses were followed through labour. No relation was found between umbilical artery Pourcelot ratio (resistance index) on admission in labour and umbilical artery base deficit. Six fetuses were born with an umbilical artery base deficit of more …

Variations in arterial supply via the external and internal carotid arteries to the bony orbit and eyeball in full-term fetuses, infants, children, adolescents, and adults – a South African perspective
… The dissection sample included six full term fetuses and 63 adults, and the angiograms accounted for 870 individuals. The ophthalmic artery was studied from the point of origin from the internal carotid artery and its course in relation to the optic nerve, and both sides were compared to note …

Accelerated Maturation of Fetal Alveolar Epithelium in New Zealand Rabbits After Single Maternal Injections of Solu-Medro
… gestation period. Two days after injection the fetuses were removed and tissue from the middle portion of the right lobe was processed for electron microscopy. A total of 100 Type I, Type II, and cuboidal cells without inclusions from each fetus was counted. In addition, three morphologically …

Blood Reservoir Function of the Fetal Guinea Pig Liver
… pregnant guinea pig sows and 54 near-term fetuses were injected intravenously with <sup>51</sup>Cr-labeled red cells while the fetuses remained in utero. Ninety seconds later a 0.5-1.0 g sample of liver was garroted with a sharp wire into a tared tube with minimal blood loss. A blood sample …

Effects of hypothyroidism on pancreatic islet development and tissue insulin signalling pathways in the ovine fetus
… mass was observed in the thyroid deficient fetuses, compared to sham controls, and this was associated with increased plasma insulin and leptin concentrations. In studies using isolated fetal ovine pancreatic islets, β-cell proliferation in vitro was inhibited by T3 in a dose-dependent …

The role of thyroid and steroid hormones in maturation of the adreline-sensitive reabsorptive mechanism of the fetal lung
… or cyclic AMP-sensitivity which, in euthyroid fetuses, resulted in the capacity to absorb lung liquid from 130 days onwards. Studies in which T₃ and T₄ were infused to thyroidectornized fetal sheep showed that T₃ was required for the normal evolution of the reabsorptive response. However, …

Mouse Embryo Development in the Presence of Capsaicin
… inhibited embryo development. Post implantation fetuses were treated in the dam with 0.3, 0.6, 1.5, and 3 μmoles capsaicin, and tested for developmental defeds. No significant differences were found between the capsaicin treated fetuses and the control fetuses. Female mice were exposed to 3mM …
