Journal ArticleDOI
Biosensors for whole-cell bacterial detection.
TL;DR: Recent progress in the use of biosensors for the detection of whole bacterial cells for sensitive and earlier identification of bacteria without the need for sample processing is discussed, with a particular focus on electrochemical biosensing systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elevated Placental Soluble Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-1 Inhibits Angiogenesis in Preeclampsia
Shakil Ahmad,Asif Ahmed +1 more
TL;DR: Analysis of supernatants taken from preeclamptic placental villous explants showed a four-fold increase in sVEGFR-1 than normal pregnancies, suggesting that villousExplants in vitro retain a hypoxia memory reflecting long-term fetal programming.
Journal ArticleDOI
Negative Regulation of Soluble Flt-1 and Soluble Endoglin Release by Heme Oxygenase-1
Melissa J. Cudmore,Shakil Ahmad,Bahjat Al-Ani,Takeshi Fujisawa,Heather Coxall,Kunal Chudasama,Luke Devey,Stephen J. Wigmore,Allyah Abbas,Peter W. Hewett,Asif Ahmed +10 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the HO-1/CO pathway inhibits sFlt-1 and sEng release, providing compelling evidence for a protective role ofHO-1 in pregnancy, and identifies HO- 1 as a novel target for the treatment of preeclampsia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fetal Growth Restriction Results in Remodeled and Less Efficient Hearts in Children
Fatima Crispi,Bart Bijnens,Francesc Figueras,Joaquim Bartrons,Elisenda Eixarch,Ferdinand le Noble,Asif Ahmed,Eduard Gratacós +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that FGR induces primary cardiac and vascular changes that could explain the increased predisposition to cardiovascular disease in adult life and the impact of strategies with beneficial effects on cardiac remodeling should be explored in children with FGR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of placental vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and placenta growth factor (PIGF) and soluble Flt-1 by oxygen--a review
TL;DR: Changes in vascular endothelial growth factor and placenta growth factor expression and function provide a molecular explanation for the observed poor angiogenesis in the pathogenesis of IUGR.
