Silkmoth proteins secreted from the follicular cells that surround the oocyte form a large extracellular assembly which is important for protecting and sustaining the structure of the oocyte and the developing embryo. These proteins have been classified into two major families (A and B). Sequence analysis showed conservation of a central domain containing long stretches of six amino acid residu...
Various coagulation abnormalities are associated with pregnancy. Several investigators have suggested that there may be a unique procoagulant associated with amniotic tissue and fluid. We identified a cysteine proteinase from malignant tissue, cancer procoagulant, and had reason to believe a similar proteinase may be present in amniotic tissue. Amniotic fluid and extracts of amnion-chorion were...
Influenza virus infection induces apoptosis and the expression of a set of pro-inflammatory cytokine genes, such as interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interferon (IFN)-beta and IFN-gamma, in cultured human fetal membrane chorion cells. Monocyte differentiation-inducing (MDI) activity in culture supernatants is simultaneously increased by the virus infection. The MDI activity...
OBJECTIVE In order to elucidate the implication of apoptosis in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage from influenza virus-infected cells, the effects of a general caspase inhibitor, N-t-Boc-Asp(OMe)-fluoromethylketone (Boc-D-fmk), on LDH leakage, apoptosis induction and virus proliferation were examined. METHODS Cultured human fetal membrane chorion and amnion cells were incubated with or with...
The Drosophila gene tramtrack (ttk) encodes two transcriptional repressors, Ttk69 and Ttk88, which are required for normal embryogenesis and imaginal disc development. Here, we characterize a novel female sterile allele of tramtrack called twin peaks (ttk(twk)) that, unlike othertramtrack alleles, has no effect on viability and produces no obvious morphological defects, except during oogenesis....
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to identify the adipocyte-specific gene expression patterns in chorion-derived mesenchymal stem cells during adipogenic differentiation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Chorionic cells were isolated from the third trimester chorions from human placenta at birth and identified morphologically and by fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis. After inducing adipogenic...
Chorioallantoic branching morphogenesis is a key milestone during placental development, creating the large surface area for nutrient and gas exchange, and is therefore critical for the success of term pregnancy. Several Wnt pathway molecules have been shown to regulate placental development. However, it remains largely unknown how Wnt-Frizzled (Fzd) signaling spatiotemporally interacts with ot...
This study investigates the validity of retrospective determination of chorion type by asking the question to the mother about the number of placentas. In the "East Flanders Prospective Twin Survey" (EFPTS), accurate information on the placentation and zygosity of the multiples was collected prospectively. The mothers of 231 monozygotic (95 dichorionic and 136 monochorionic) twins and 255 dizyg...
It is generally accepted that the high buoyancy of pelagic marine eggs is due to substantial influx of water across the cell membrane just before ovulation. Here we further develop the theoretical basis by applying laboratory observations of the various components of the fertilized egg in first-principle equations for egg specific gravity (ρ(egg)) followed by statistical validation. We selected...
