Inhibition of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ɣ : a potential link between chronic maternal hypoxia and impaired fetal growth
(FASEB Journal, 2014)
Abstract.
Chronic exposure to hypoxia raises the
risk of pregnancy disorders characterized by maternal
vascular dysfunction and diminished fetal growth. In an
effort to identify novel pathways for these hypoxiarelated ...
Potential role for elevated maternal enzymatic antioxidant status in Andean protection against altitude-associated SGA
(The Journal of Maternal-Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2012)
Oxidative stress has been implicated in the uteroplacental
ischemia characteristic of preeclampsia and small-for-gestational-age (SGA) birth, both of which are more common at high
(>2500 m) vs low altitude. Since Andeans ...
Role of cytokines in altitude-associated preeclampsia
(Pregnancy Hypertens, 2012-01)
Abstract.
Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is more common at high than low altitude and contributes
to the altitude-related decline in birth weight. Since inflammatory markers are implicated
in PE, we asked if such markers ...
