Chronic Gestational Inflammation: Comparisons of Obesity-Mediated and Preeclampsia-Mediated Placental Inflammation using Transcriptomic and Histological Methods
… associated with states of chronic gestational inflammation and poor pregnancy outcomes. However, commonalities and/or differences from these divergent chronic inflammatory insults on placental development and function remain elusive. Preliminary work by our group suggests placental NAD+ …

Brain Injury and Inflammation and Placental Inflammation in Response to Repetitive Umbilical Cord Occlusions in the Near Term Ovine Fetus
… leading to severe acidemia will stimulate a placental and fetal inflammatory response associated with brain injury, which will be exacerbated by chronic hypoxemia and low-grade infection. Chronically instrumented fetal sheep served as controls or underwent repetitive UCOs for up to 4 hours or …

Correlation of Macroscopic and Microscopic Placental Lesions with Obstetric and Neonatal Outcomes in an unselected Population
… fetus – correlation does exist between the placental lesion and the clinical event. Relationships between “lower grade” placental lesions and clinical outcomes are less clear. Reports of associations between selected abnormalities and clinical outcomes are largely based on retrospective case …

Role of obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus status on the expression of kisspeptin, inflammatory markers and other endocrine signals, and their correlation with foetal outcomes and placental structure
… maternal obesity is characterized by low-grade inflammation and insulin resistance. However, little is known about the effect of maternal obesity and GDM and their interaction on placental kisspeptin and inflammatory marker (TNFα, IL-6) expression, the relationship between placental and …

Maternal Cardiac Autonomic Function and Fetal Behaviour in Hypertensive and Obese Pregnancies
… hypertension in pregnancy is associated with placental insufficiency and fetal growth restriction, whereas obesity in pregnancy is associated with placental inflammation and macrosomia. Fetal growth restriction is associated with an increased risk for language deficits at 2-5 years of age. …

Characterisation of the role of mitochondrial dysfunction and meta-inflammation as a shared pathogenic network in gestational diabetes mellitus
… adipose dysregulation and systemic meta-inflammation. Although the pathophysiology of GDM is complex, adipose tissue dysfunction is an established cause of metabolic dysfunction and systemic insulin resistance. Furthermore, the placental microenvironment is highly sensitive to GDM …
