Department of Pediatrics, The Hospital for Sick Children Research Institute, Hospital for Sick Children, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
J Clin Invest 105:577-87. 2000..These data suggest that the oxygen-regulated early events of trophoblast differentiation are in part mediated by TGFbeta(3) through HIF-1 transcription factors...

Adriana and Luisa Castellucci Award lecture 2001. Hypoxia inducible factor-1: oxygen regulation of trophoblast differentiation in normal and pre-eclamptic pregnancies--a reviewI Caniggia
Program in Development and Fetal Health, Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute, Mt Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Placenta 23:S47-57. 2002..This will prevent the normal TGFbeta3 down-regulation and will lead to poor trophoblast invasion predisposing the pregnancy to pre-eclampsia...
Mechanisms of oxygen sensing in human trophoblast cellsC S De Marco
Program in Development and Fetal Health, Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute, Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5G 1X5
Placenta 23:S58-68. 2002..Thus, this data supports a hypothesis that trophoblast cells may utilize mitochondria and/or hemoproteins as oxygen sensors to detect the critical changes in oxygen tension during pregnancy...
Focal adhesion kinase is a key mediator of human trophoblast developmentD J Macphee
Program in Development and Fetal Health, Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute, Program in Lung Biology, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Physiology, University of Toronto, Mt. Sinai Hospital, Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Lab Invest 81:1469-83. 2001..These data suggest that FAK is a key kinase involved in early trophoblast cell differentiation and plays a role in regulating cell proliferation and motility during early placental development...
Mtd/Bok takes a swing: proapoptotic Mtd/Bok regulates trophoblast cell proliferation during human placental development and in preeclampsiaJ E Ray

A novel Mtd splice isoform is responsible for trophoblast cell death in pre-eclampsiaN Soleymanlou
Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5G 1X5
Cell Death Differ 12:441-52. 2005..We conclude that under conditions of reduced oxygenation/oxidative stress, Mtd-P causes trophoblast cell death in pre-eclampsia and hence may contribute to the molecular events leading to the clinical manifestations of this disease...
The double life of MULE in preeclamptic and IUGR placentaeA Rolfo
Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute, Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Cell Death Dis 3:e305. 2012..The different preferential targets of MULE in PE and IUGR placentae classify early-onset PE and IUGR as distinct molecular pathologies...

Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Placenta 30:S96-100. 2009..Disruption in Mtd/Mcl-1 expression seen in preeclampsia may contribute to both the increased apoptosis and hyperproliferative nature of this disorder...
TGF-beta 3 expression during umbilical cord development and its alteration in pre-eclampsiaI B Copland
Programme in Development and Fetal Health, Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute, Mt Sinai Hospital, The Hospital for Sick Children Research Institute and Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Placenta 23:311-21. 2002..We speculate that the downregulation of TGF-beta 3 expression found in pre-eclamptic umbilical cord may contribute to the abnormal structure and mechanical properties seen in these pathological umbilical cords...
Hypoxia favours necrotic versus apoptotic shedding of placental syncytiotrophoblast into the maternal circulationB Huppertz
Department of Anatomy, University Hospital RWTH Aachen, Germany
Placenta 24:181-90. 2003..Since uteroplacental ischaemia is a significant risk factor for pre-eclampsia, these findings may explain the link between reduced uteroplacental blood flow and the systemic clinical manifestations of this disease...
