Presence of nuclei with tetraploid content of DNA in syncytiotrophoblast of the early chorion has been demonstrated. Before 8 weeks of pregnancy their content makes 31% and then it drops up to 26%. At this age certain severe changes are revealed in texture characteristics of the nucleus--asymmetry and kurtosis of chromatin distribution. Possible pathways of ultrastructural rearrangements in epithelium of the early chorion are discussed.

Reduced trophoblast migration and invasion contribute to unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA). Aquaporin 3 (AQP3) plays a crucial role in facilitating trophoblast migration and invasion during early pregnancy through fetal-maternal crosstalk. This study aimed to comprehensively investigate the mechanism involving AQP3 and its modulatory effects on human extravillous trophoblast (HTR-8/SVneo cells) migration and invasion.

Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder arising de novo or with an autosomal dominant transmission that typically presents either at birth or in early childhood, manifesting through distinctive clinical features such as multiple café-au-lait spots, benign tumors in the skin, bone enlargement, and deformities. This literature review aims to resume the spectrum of maternal and fetal complications encountered in pregnant women with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Thorough research was conducted on databases such as Web of Science, PubMed, Science Direct, Google Scholar, and Wiley Online Library.

Objective: Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) belongs to the transforming growth factor-β superfamily. Recent evidence shows that AMH and its type II receptor (AMHRII) are expressed by the placenta at term. The physiological role of AMH in trophoblast invasion and migration remains to be elucidated.

Nanoplastics pose a growing threat to marine ecosystems, particularly affecting the early developmental stages of marine organisms. This study investigates the effects of amino-modified polystyrene nanoparticles (PS-NH, 50 nm) on the embryonic development of , a model ascidian species. Both chorionated and dechorionated embryos were exposed to increasing concentrations of PS-NH so morphological alterations could be assessed with a high-content analysis of the phenotypes and genotoxicity.

As part of a conventional controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) regimen, final follicular maturation is usually triggered by a single bolus dose of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). COH, which combines GnRH antagonist co-treatment with GnRH agonist(GnRHa) trigger, is often used in attempts to eliminate severe early ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and to improve oocyte/embryo yield and quality. Recently, the combination of GnRHa, with hCG trigger has also been implemented into clinical practice.
