Abstract:
Preeclampsia, characterised by maternal endothelial cell activation, is triggered by toxic factors, such as placental extracellular vesicles (EVs) from a dysfunctional placenta. The increased oxidative stress seen in the preeclamptic placenta links to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The ER regulates protein folding and trafficking. When the ER is stressed, proteins are misfolded, and misfolded proteins are toxic. Misfolded proteins can be exported from cells, via EVs which target to other cells where the misfolded proteins may also be toxic. Melatonin is a hormone and antioxidant produced b

Fatty acids (FAs) are essential substances for the growth and development of the fetus and placenta. The growing fetus and placenta must obtain adequate FAs received from the maternal circulation and facilitated by various placental FA carriers, including FA transport proteins (FATPs), FA translocase (FAT/CD36), and cytoplasmic FA binding proteins (FABPs). Placental nutrition transport was regulated by imprinted genes H19 and insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2).

The content of nuclear and membrane proteins of the placenta, as well as posttranslational modification of these proteins in physiological pregnancy and placental insufficiency (PI) were studied. Differential centrifugation, electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel, spectrophotometric methods were used. It was found that with PN there is a decrease in the degree of production of the studied proteins of varying degrees relative to control parameters. For chromatin proteins, a more pronounced decrease in the content of non-histone proteins was found in comparison with histones. Among histone fracti

Abstract:
Preeclampsia (PE) is a major cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide, with the placenta playing a central role in disease pathophysiology. This review synthesizes recent advancements in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying PE, focusing on placental genes, proteins, and genetic variants identified through multi-omic approaches. Transcriptomic studies in bulk placental tissue have identified many dysregulated genes in the PE placenta, including the PE signature gene, Fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (FLT1).

Fatty acids (FA) are critical for fetal brain development and are transferred across the placenta by membrane-bound FA transport proteins (FATP), translocases (FAT/CD36), and cytosolic binding proteins (FABP).

Decreased placental nutrient transport is believed to contribute to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR); however, IUGR placental lipid transport and metabolism are poorly understood.

Recently, it was found that the heterodimer composed of hLAT1 (a light-chain protein) and 4F2 heavy chain (4F2hc), a type II transmembrane glycoprotein, is responsible for system L amino acid transport. We found that the mRNAs of 4F2hc and hLAT1 were expressed in the human placenta and a human choriocarcinoma cell line. The levels of the 4F2hc and hLAT1 proteins in the human placenta increased at full term compared with those at midtrimester. Immunohistochemical data

To accomplish our first goal, chylomicron particles were duallly labeled with cholesteryl ester and triglycerides.

Glucose is supplied to the placenta and fetus from the maternal plasma according to concentration-dependent mechanisms exhibiting saturation kinetics that are mediated by facilitative transporter proteins on both the maternal-facing microvillus and fetal-facing basal trophoblast membranes. Placental glucose transport to the fetus requires a net maternal-to-fetal plasma glucose concentration gradient that is determined by placental as well as fetal glucose consumption.
