  1. 🫁🤰👶 À la fois poumon, intestin, foie et plus encore, le #placenta nourrit et protège le #bébé pendant 40 semaines.

    Une modélisation développée par une équipe de l’Université de Berne montre comment cet organe multifonction transporte médicaments et nutriments.

  2. 🫁🤰👶 The #placenta is a lung, gut, liver and much more. For 40 weeks it feeds and protects the #baby. A model of this multi-purpose organ, created by researchers at @unibe.ch, now shows exactly how it transports substances.

  3. #PolylacticAcid is a #biodegradable #plastic that can be broken down into oligomeric lactic acid (OLA) #nanoplastics. This study shows that OLA particles can accumulate in the #placenta & #fetus in pregnant mice, inducing placental vascular dysplasia & fetal growth restriction @PLOSBiology plos.io/4bR4e6W

  4. Placental microbiome (Microbiology 🦠)

    The placental microbiome is the nonpathogenic, commensal bacteria claimed to be present in a healthy human placenta and is distinct from bacteria that cause infection and preterm birth in chorioamnionitis. Until recently, the healthy placenta was considered to be a sterile organ but now genera and species have been identif...

    Esmée van Kampen (37) geniet volop van haar pasgeboren dochter Izza. Ze deelt op Instagram niet alleen intieme foto's van vlak na de bevalling, maar ze vertelt ook wat ze precies van plan is met de placenta.

  8. #Zika #virus infection causes mild or no symptoms and leaves long-lasting #immunity. But during #pregnancy, the virus can cross the #placenta and cause damage to the nervous system of the fetus. In extreme cases, it can cause #microcephaly in humans.

  9. How the virus that causes COVID-19 can infect and damage the placenta.

    Using a cell model SARS-CoV-2 infection caused significant reduction in the survival and differentiation of syncytiotrophoblast cells, which led to lower production of the human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG) - needed for early pregnancy maintenance.

  10. A nice Preprint paper to start off the year on the placenta and shared developmental pathways with the heart.

    Authors: "the molecular and physiological associations between the embryonic heart and developing placenta are increasingly evident"

    The authors "review the clinical, structural, and molecular relationships between congenital heart defects (sic) and placental dysfunction..."
