Oxygen imaging of biological cells and tissues is becoming increasingly important in cell
biology and in the pathophysiology of various hypoxia-related diseases. The optical oxygen …

Abnormal placentation is responsible for most failures in pregnancy; however, an
understanding of placental functions remains largely concealed from noninvasive, in vivo …

While microplastics have been recently detected in human blood and the placenta, their
impact on human health is not well understood. Using a mouse model of environmental …

Cerebrovascular pressure autoregulation promotes stable cerebral blood flow (CBF) across
a range of arterial blood pressures. Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is a developmental …

Allometry refers to the ways in which organismal shape is associated with size. It is a special
case of integration, or the tendency for traits to covary, in that variation in size is ubiquitous …

Maternal exposure to microplastics and nanoplastics has been shown to result in fetal
growth restriction in mice. In this study, we investigated the placental and fetal hemodynamic …

Summary The conserved CD94/NKG2A inhibitory receptor is expressed by nearly all human
and∼ 50% of mouse uterine natural killer (uNK) cells. Binding human HLA-E and mouse Qa …

Mechanisms of resource allocation are essential for maternal and fetal survival, particularly
when the availability of nutrients is limited. We investigated the responses of feto-placental …

Purpose To develop and validate a method for accelerated time‐resolved imaging of the
fetal heart using a combination of compressed sensing (CS) and metric optimized gating …

Abstract Objectives During placental Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) Magnetic
Resonance Imaging (MRI), we have observed spontaneous reductions in placental …
