Maternal stress could leave epigenetic imprints on genes in the placenta associated with cortisol -- a necessary hormone for fetal development -- and this would affect the baby's development from very ...

In the case of placental insufficiency, the placenta is not supplied with a sufficient amount of blood and the exchange of substances between the placenta and fetus does not function properly. This ...

Research links micro- and nanoplastics exposure during pregnancy to rising allergies. These particles enter mother and fetus ...

Scientifically, it is known that a retained placenta in a cow should be removed between 48 and 72 hours from calving to allow ...

Among other things, environmental factors during the child's early development in the womb are suspected, which lay the foundation for later illnesses. A team of researchers from Empa, ETH Zurich, ...

UAF scientists have found microplastics in all marine mammals species they’ve studied so far, and new results show passage ...

Preeclampsia, intrauterine fetal growth restriction, and other "great obstetrical syndromes" have been linked to disordered placenta development, so understanding the structure and function of ...

Researchers identified genes that could explain why some assisted reproductive technologies, like IVF, carry a higher risk of growth and metabolic issues in offspring.
