Impact of extended Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor therapy on the gut microbiome in cystic fibrosis. Journal of Cystic Fibrosis, 23(5), 967-976. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcf.2024.05.002

Background
There is a paucity of knowledge on the longer-term effects of CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapies upon the gut microbiome and associated outcomes. In a pilot study, we investigated longitudinal Elexacaftor/Te... Read More about Impact of extended Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor therapy on the gut microbiome in cystic fibrosis.

Dynamics of T2* and deformation in the placenta and myometrium during pre-labour contractions (2022)
Journal Article
Hutter, J., Kohli, V., Dellschaft, N., Uus, A., Story, L., Steinweg, J. K., …Rutherford, M. A. (2022). Dynamics of T2* and deformation in the placenta and myometrium during pre-labour contractions. Scientific Reports, 12(1), Article 18542. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-22008-3

Pre-labour uterine contractions, occurring throughout pregnancy, are an important phenomenon involving the placenta in addition to the myometrium. They alter the uterine environment and thus potentially the blood supply to the fetus and may thus prov...

The haemodynamics of the human placenta in utero (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 Dellschaft et al. We have used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to provide important new insights into the function of the human placenta in utero. We have measured slow net flow and high net oxygenation in the placenta in vivo, which are cons... Read More about The haemodynamics of the human placenta in utero.

Housing temperature modulates the impact of diet-induced rise in fat mass on adipose tissue before and during pregnancy in rats (2019)
Journal Article

Aim: To investigate whether housing temperature influences rat adiposity, and the extent it is modified by diet and/or pregnancy. Housing temperature impacts on brown adipose tissue, that possess a unique uncoupling protein (UCP) 1, which, when activ...
