Cancer of unknown primary during pregnancy: An exceptionally rare coexistence
(2015)Background: Cancer in pregnancy is a rare disease with breast cancer, cervical cancer, melanoma and Hodgkin's disease to be the most commonly diagnosed malignancies during gestation. Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) is a ...

Coexistence of pregnancy and malignancy
(2002)Cancer complicating pregnancy is a rare coexistence. The incidence is approximately 1 in 1,000 pregnancies. The most common cancers are those more frequently seen during the reproductive age of a woman. Breast cancer, ...

Decidual spiral artery remodeling during early post-implantation period in mice: Investigation of associations with decidual uNK cells and invasive trophoblast
(2012)Circumferential remodeling of spiral arteries (SAs) during pregnancy is crucial for regulating maternal blood flow into the placenta and clinically important. However its mechanism is still ill defined in humans and mice. ...

Lung cancer in the pregnant woman: To treat or not to treat, that is the question
(2010)Lung cancer in pregnancy is a rare situation; however, it is increasingly reported in the past two decades. The association might be more encountered in the coming years due to the rising trends of cigarette smoking among ...

New phenotypic aspects of the decidual spiral artery wall during early post-implantation mouse pregnancy
(2011)During pregnancy the walls of decidual spiral arteries (SAs) undergo clinically important structural modifications crucial for embryo survival/growth and maternal health. However, the mechanisms of SA remodeling (SAR) are ...

Novel spatiotemporal glycome changes in the murine placenta during placentation based on BS-I lectin binding patterns
(2013)Although spatiotemporal changes of the glycome (full set of glycans, otherwise known as saccharides or carbohydrates) during placenta formation (placentation) are functionally and clinically important, they are poorly ...

Parental origin-specific developmental defects in mice with uniparental disomy for chromosome 12
(2000)Genetic analysis has shown that the distal portion of mouse chromosome 12 is imprinted

Roles for genomic imprinting and the zygotic genome in placental development
(2001)The placenta contains several types of fetomaternal interfaces where zygote-derived cells interact with maternal cells or maternal blood for the promotion of fetal growth and viability. The genetic factors regulating the ...
