Broughton Pipkin, F., Mistry, H. D., Roy, C., Dick, B., Waugh, J., Chikhi, R., …Mohaupt, M. (2015). Born from pre-eclamptic pregnancies predisposes infants to altered cortisol metabolism in the first postnatal year. Endocrine Connections, 4(4), https://doi.org/10.1530/EC-15-0084

Pre-eclampsia leads to disturbed fetal organ development, including metabolic syndrome, attributed to altered pituitary-adrenal feedback loop. We measured cortisol metabolites in infants born from pre-eclamptic and normotensive women and hypothesised...

Placental expression of adenosine A2A receptor and hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha in early pregnancy, term and pre-eclamptic pregnancies: interactions with placental renin-angiotensin system (2015)
Journal Article

Placental expression of adenosine A2A receptor and hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha in early pregnancy, term and pre-eclamptic pregnancies: interactions with placental renin-angiotensin system. Placenta, 36(5), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.placenta.2015.02.011

Normal placentation occurs under low oxygen tensions yet hypoxia is also implicated in placental pathologies such as pre-eclampsia (PE). Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), adenosine and tissue renin-angiotensin-system (RAS) are known to promote angiog...
