Telomere homeostasis in IUGR placentas - A review.

abstract：:Placental pathology is a valuable link explaining how underlying pregnancy risk factors result in adverse pregnancy outcome. This potentially useful information is currently underutilized due to a general lack of rigor in placental diagnosis. This lack of rigor is in large part due to a failure to appreciate the impor...

abstract：:Placental hypoxia as a result of impaired trophoblast invasion is suggested to be involved in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia. Hypoxia is a potent stimulus for the release of adenosine, and the actions of adenosine are mediated through four adenosine receptors, A(1), A(2A), A(2B) and A(3). We investigated the pres...
