- Inflammation and Pregnancy (2006, background): “Parturition is the result of a complex interplay between the uterus, which passes from a quiescent state to a contractile one, and the cervix, which becomes soft and dilated in a manner that allows passage of the fetus through the birth canal, synchronous with the maturation of the fetus.(49) Preter”
- The effects of sex and hormonal status on the physiological response to acute psychosocial stress. (2006, background): “In a CRH stimulation test combined with AVP administration, young women show greater plasma ACTH and total cortisol responses compared with men (Born et al., 1995), indicating an increased sensitivity of the female pituitary to AVP.”
- Cytokines, prostaglandins and parturition--a review. (2003, background): “(Keelan, Myatt and Mitchell, 1997; Challis et al., 2000).”
- Leukocyte density and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression in human fetal membranes, decidua, cervix and myometrium before and during labour at term. (2003, background): “We hypothesize that the myometrium and fetal membranes play complementary roles during the process of labourÐthe trigger to parturition may be delivered from the fetal membranes, possibly acting on signals received from the fetus (Challis et al., 2000).”
- Fetal programming of hypothalamo‐pituitary‐adrenal function: prenatal stress and glucocorticoids (2006, background): “In animals that give birth to mature young (primates, sheep and guinea pigs) maximal brain growth and a large proportion of neuroendocrine maturation takes place in utero (Dobbing & Sands, 1979; Matthews, 1998; Challis et al. 2000).”
- Endocrine regulation of human fetal growth: the role of the mother, placenta, and fetus. (2006, background): “In the gestational tissues, 11 -HSD1 is found in the decidua (271, 274) and chorion (275), and the endothelium of placental villous tissue (275), where it regulates the effect of cortisol on other placental pathways such as prostaglandin (PG) biosynthesis and metabolism (276, 277).”
