Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) disorders, including placenta accreta, increta, and percreta, are serious obstetric conditions characterized by abnormal placental adherence to the uterine wall. With increasing incidence, PAS poses significant risks,...
Background. Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) induces maternal hyperglycemia, which may alter fetal cardiac structure and function, increasing short- and long-term cardiovascular risks. Purpose. To systematically review the evidence on the fetal ca...
Observations of the processes of oogenesis, fertilization, and the earliest embryonic development have given us the opportunity to estimate the importance of chromosomal distribution errors for the success of mammalian reproduction. It is now known t...
Autophagy has a potential regulatory effect on spermatogenesis and testicular development. Dynamic alterations in the testicular autophagy of prepubertal mice were analyzed, and the relationship between autophagy levels and testicular development was...
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) or cloning technology is widely used in agriculture and biomedicine. However, the application of this technology is limited by the low developmental competence of cloned embryos or fetuses, which frequently exhibi...
Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), including autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, are increasingly recognized as disorders of early brain construction arising from defects in neural stem a...
Despite looking monotonous, liver histology represents a highly complex structure of hepatocytes, bile ducts and vessels. This complex interaction and development originate in embryology and remain in adult life. In this manuscript, we highlight the...
We examined whether an increase in synaptic activity resulted in an increase in quantal size at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) of third-instar Drosophila larvae. Spontaneous miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents (mEPSCs) or miniature excitator...
Estrogen metabolites (EMs) play a local regulatory role in mammalian ovarian function. Among them, 2-hydroxyestradiol (2-OHE2) exerts dose-dependent effects on reproductive physiology, supporting either normal ovarian processes or contributing to pat...
Wnt signaling is an ancient developmental mechanism that drives the initial specification and patterning of the primary axis in many metazoan embryos. Yet, it is unclear how exactly the various Wnt components interact in most Wnt-mediated development...
High non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) during negative energy balance in dairy cattle can impair reproduction. While their effects on oocyte maturation and preimplantation embryo development are known, their impact during fertilisation is largely un...
We have previously established that bexarotene, a clinically approved agonist of retinoid X receptor (RXR), promotes the differentiation and fusion of skeletal myoblasts. We have also analyzed the genomic programs underlying rexinoid-enhanced myogeni...
