Decreased expression of angiogenic factors in placentas with chorioamnionitis after preterm birthBoris W Kramer
University Children s Hospital, Wuerzburg, Germany
Pediatr Res 58:607-12. 2005..We speculate that cellular stress and changes in angiogenic homeostasis induced by proinflammatory activation of fetal endothelium in chorioamnionitis may not be limited to the placenta but may also involve other fetal organs...

BMC Cancer 4:24. 2004..In this study the effect of the Raf kinase inhibitor BAY 43-9006 and of the MEK inhibitor CI-1040 (PD184352) on a Raf dependent lung tumor mouse model was analyzed in detail...
Connective tissue growth factor does not affect transforming growth factor-beta 1-induced Smad3 phosphorylation and T lymphocyte proliferation inhibitionS Kunzmann
University Children s Hospital, University of Wurzburg, Wurzburg, Germany

Cytokeratin antibodies as differential markers of trophoblast and fetomaternal syncytial plaques in the sheep placentomeM Kadyrov
Department of Anatomy II, University Hospital, RWTH Aachen, Aachen, Germany
Placenta 28:1107-9. 2007..This antibody proved to be a useful tool for easy histological orientation in the sheep placenta. In combination with other antibodies in double immunohistochemistry it facilitates exact localization of antigens...
