The manifestation of a giant ovarian yolk sac tumor during late pregnancy is relatively rare. A yolk sac tumor is a highly malignant germ cell tumor that originates from primitive germ cells. It is characterized by yolk sac differentiation .

Background: It is still urgent and challenge to develop a simple risk assessment scale for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in puerperium in Chinese women.

Methods: The study, a retrospective case-control study, was conducted in 12 hospitals in different cities in China. A total of 1152 pregnant women were selected, including 384 cases with VTE and 768 cases without VTE.

Background: COVID-19 has increased the probability of occurrence of maternal anxiety and depression in pregnant women. However, there is limited research on anxiety and depression among pregnant women during the long-term normal prevention of COVID-19 pandemic period. This study aimed to examine the anxiety and depression and influencing factors among perinatal women during the long-term normal prevention of COVID-19 pandemic period in China.

Human chorionic villous mesenchymal stem cells (CV-MSCs) are a promising and effective therapeutic option for tissue injury. Vascular dysfunction during pregnancies is significantly involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE). This work aims to investigate how CV-MSCs regulate the function of vascular endothelial cells.

Preeclampsia (PE), a pregnancy disorder that affects 5-7% of pregnant women, is among the primary causes for maternal and perinatal mortality. PE is believed to be associated with insufficient invasion of villous and extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs), which hampers uterine spiral artery remodeling and finally induces PE. But the mechanism responsible for reduction of trophoblast invasion remains unclear.

Our previous studies have shown that the Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) can regulate metastasis and development of ovarian cancer. However, its specific mechanism has yet to be fully revealed. In this study, an RNA-seq approach was adopted to compare the differences in mRNA levels in ovarian cancer cells being given or not given ADSCs.

Human amnion-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) have been reported as a promising effective treatment to repair tissue. Trophoblast dysfunction during pregnancy is significantly involved in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE). To understand how AD-MSCs regulated trophoblast function, we treated trophoblasts with AD-MSC-derived exosomes under hypoxic conditions.

Background: Our previous study showed that human omental adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) promote ovarian cancer growth and metastasis. In this study, the role of autophagy in the ovarian cancer-promoting effects of omental ADSCs was further determined.

Methods: The growth and invasion of ovarian cancer cells were detected by CCK-8 and Transwell assays, respectively.
