Is pre-eclampsia a disease of the sexually active gravida?

Observation of families present in Labor Rooms has suggested that pre-eclamptic parturients are usually accompanied by a male companion while young parturients without pre-eclampsia are attended by a female family member. Consequently, 72 unselected teenage parturients were questioned about their sexual activity during pregnancy. Pre-eclampsia was diagnosed in 22; all had sexual activity after conception, 19 during the entire course of pregnancy and three during the first trimester only. Thirteen parturients who denied sexual activity during pregnancy did not develop pre-eclampsia. The remaini

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor-1 in cardiomyocytes is required for normal cardiac development.

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that acts via G protein-coupled receptors. The S1P receptor S1P1, encoded by S1pr1, is expressed in developing heart but its roles there remain largely unexplored. Analysis of S1pr1 LacZ knockin embryos revealed β-galactosidase staining in cardiomyocytes in the septum and in the trabecular layer of hearts collected at 12.5 days post coitus (dpc) and weak staining in the inner aspect of the compact layer at 15.5 dpc and later. Nkx2-5-Cre- and Mlc2a-Cre-mediated conditional knockout of S1pr1 led to ventricular noncompaction and ventricular septa…

Contraceptive vaginal rings: a review.

Development efforts on contraceptive vaginal rings were initiated over 40 years ago based on two principles: the capacity of the vaginal epi … cause vaginal discharge and complaints, ring expulsion is not uncommon, the ring may be felt during coitus and vaginal insertion may be unpleasant for some women. The studies reviewed in this article provide evidence that CVRs are safe, effective and highly acceptable to women. There is no doubt that CVRs offer a new, effective contraceptive option to wo …

Expression pattern of serine protease inhibitor kazal type 3 (Spink3) during mouse embryonic development.

Recent evidence shows that the serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 3 (Spink3) has more diverse functions than expected. To gain insight into its function, we analyzed the spatiotemporal expression profile of Spink3, using in situ hybridization (ISH) and a Spink3+/lacZ knock-in mouse, in which lacZ was inserted into the Spink3 locus. Spink3lacZ expression was first observed in the foregut, midgut, hindgut and the forebrain/midbrain junction region at 9.5 days post coitus (dpc). In the pancreas, Spink3 mRNA was detected at 11.5 dpc, before formation of the typical shape of the exocrine structur…

Sperm migration and selection in the reproductive tract of female mice is mostly affected by male genotype.

The aim of the present study is to assess the influence of male and female genotypes on the transport of sperm to the site of fertilization. We mated B10.BR, B10.BR-Ydel and BALB/c males with B10.BR and BALB/c females and then analyzed the quality and quantity of spermatozoa found five hours post coitus in three successive parts of the female reproductive tract. We found that B10.BR and B10.BR-Ydel spermatozoa are very effectively selected by the uterotubaljunction and other barriers of the female genital tract. On the contrary, severely deformed BALB/c spermatozoa appeared to be able to cross…
