Therapies for Mitochondrial Disorders by Kayli Sousa Smyth, Anne Mulvihill

“…Mitochondria contain their own genome, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), which is maternally inherited from the oocyte. Mitochondrial proteins are encoded by either nuclear DNA (nDNA) or mtDNA, and both code for proteins forming the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes of the respiratory chain. …”

The Roles of PPARs in the Fetal Origins of Metabolic Health and Disease by William D. Rees, Christopher J. McNeil, Christopher A. Maloney

“…In the maturing follicle, PPAR-γ has an important role in the granulosa cells that surround the maturing oocyte. After fertilisation, PPAR-γ and PPAR-β/δ are essential regulators of placentation and the subsequent development of key metabolic tissues such as skeletal muscle and adipose cells. …”

Ascites in the Puerperium in the Context of a Woman with Turner Syndrome Who Conceived through Assisted Reproductive Technology by Nikolaos Tsagkas, George Valasoulis, Konstantinos Zikopoulos, Calliope Zerzi, Ioannis Mitselos, Ioannis Koutoulakis, Nikolaos Tzampouras, Theodor Stefos

“…The woman was affected by Turner syndrome (TS); she had a medical background of chronic use of hormonal medication since puberty and conceived through ART- (assisted reproduction techniques-) IVF-oocyte donation. It is important to exhibit high suspicion for clot formation in the hepatic vasculature during the puerperium, especially in the case of history of chronic hormone treatment. …”

Pregnancy in a Transgender Male: A Case Report and Review of the Literature by Ayesha Hassan, Jessica Perini, Amna Khan, Apoorva Iyer

“…Some studies demonstrate that transgender men, treated with gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT), including testosterone, have similar oocyte quantity and quality, as well as similar ovarian reserve, when compared to cisgender women, suggesting that resumption of fertility may be possible after cessation of GAHT. …”

Placental, Matrilineal, and Epigenetic Mechanisms Promoting Environmentally Adaptive Development of the Mammalian Brain by Kevin D. Broad, Eridan Rocha-Ferreira, Mariya Hristova

“…Placentation also hands ultimate control of genomic imprinting and intergenerational epigenetic information transfer to the matriline as epigenetic markers undergo erasure and reprogramming in the developing oocyte. These developments, in conjunction with an expanded neocortex, provide a unique evolutionary template by which matrilineal transfer of maternal care, resources, and culture can be used to promote brain development and infant survival.…”
