Journal ArticleDOI
Preeclampsia and small-for-gestational age are associated with decreased concentrations of a factor involved in angiogenesis: soluble Tie-2.
Francesca Gotsch,Roberto Romero,Juan Pedro Kusanovic,Tinnakorn Chaiworapongsa,Michael Dombrowski,Offer Erez,Nandor Gabor Than,Shali Mazaki-Tovi,Pooja Mittal,Jimmy Espinoza,Sonia S. Hassan +10 more
TL;DR: Patients with preeclampsia and those with SGA fetuses have lower median plasma concentrations of soluble Tie-2 than women with normal pregnancies, and Plasma sTie-2 concentrations in normal pregnancy changed significantly as a function of gestational age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meconium aspiration syndrome: a role for fetal systemic inflammation
JoonHo Lee,Roberto Romero,Kyung A. Lee,Eun Na Kim,Steven J. Korzeniewski,Piya Chaemsaithong,Bo H yun Yoon +6 more
TL;DR: The combination of intraamniotic inflammation with fetal systemic inflammation is an important antecedent of MAS and has implications for the understanding of the mechanisms of disease responsible for MAS and for the development of prognostic models and therapeutic interventions for this disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individualized growth assessment of fetal soft tissue using fractional thigh volume.
Wesley Lee,Wesley Lee,Wesley Lee,R. L. Deter,B. McNie,Luís F. Gonçalves,Luís F. Gonçalves,Jimmy Espinoza,Jimmy Espinoza,Tinnakorn Chaiworapongsa,Roberto Romero,Roberto Romero +11 more
TL;DR: Fractional thigh volume (TVol) is introduced as a new soft tissue parameter for fetal growth evaluation, its relationship to menstrual age is defined, and individualized fetal growth standards based on Rossavik growth models are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokine-initiated signal transduction in human myometrial cells.
TL;DR: The objective of this study was to evaluate interleukin‐1 (IL‐1) binding and some postreceptor actions of this cytokine and tumor necrosis factor in human myometrial cells (HMC).
Journal ArticleDOI
A sensitive fluorimetric assay for pyruvate
TL;DR: A sensitive and specific fluorimetric assay for the determination of pyruvate is reported here and the usefulness of the assay is demonstrated by the accurate measurement of intracellular and extracellular pyruVate concentrations.
