Tanshinone IIA changed the amniotic fluid volume and regulated expression of AQP1 and AQP3 in amniotic epithelium cells: a promising drug treating abnormal amniotic fluid volume
BackgroundMany studies have confirmed the association of aquaporins (AQPs) with abnormal amniotic fluid volume (AFV). In our previous experiments, we...

Immersed in a reservoir of potential: amniotic fluid-derived extracellular vesicles
This review aims to encapsulate the current knowledge in extracellular vesicles extracted from amniotic fluid and amniotic fluid derived stem/stromal...

Diagnostic potential of the amniotic fluid cells transcriptome in deciphering mendelian disease: a proof-of-concept
RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is emerging in genetic diagnoses as it provides functional support for the interpretation of variants of uncertain...

Tanshinone IIA increased amniotic fluid volume through down-regulating placental AQPs expression via inhibiting the activity of GSK-3β
The mechanism of idiopathic oligohydramnios is still uncertain, and there is no effective and targeted treatment for it. Placental aquaporins (AQPs)...

Discordant structural chromosomal aberrations in chorionic villi and amniotic fluid leading to a formation of an isochromosome 21: a case report
BackgroundFetoplacental discrepancies occur in approximately 1–2% of analyzed prenatal cases. They are typically due to confined placental mosaicism,...

Lecture 21: Pressure and Fluid Dynamics
Pressure is the force (in N) being exerted, divided by the area (in m2) on which the force acts. Note that pressure is NOT a force (nor is it a...
