The cervix undergoes significant changes over the course of pregnancy, such as increase in tissue size, microvascular remodeling and increase in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptors (KDR and Flt-1). VEGF has been studied in var... |
Postpartum Cervical Repair in Mus musculus: Potential Role For Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Hypoxia Inducible Factor 1 Alpha in Cervical Wound Healing |

Cervical remodeling (CR) is the active process where the birth canal prepares for parturition. CR is divided into four distinct yet overlapping phases, with the first three phases taking place during gestation and parturition, whereas the fourth and ... |
Anti-Bacterial Properties Of Ethanolic Moringa Oleifera Leaf Extract And Proteomic Analysis Of Its Effects On Escherichia Coli |
2016 |
2022 |
Every year 15 million babies are born prematurely worldwide and a million of these infants die. We know that bacterial infections are associated with and are the primary cause of preterm labor. Unfortunately, current antibiotic-based therapies are e... |
Regulation of Cervical Epithelial Proliferation by Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor |
2012 |
1829 |
Cervical remodeling is a complex biological process, characterized in part by vascular leakage, an increase in edema, and epithelial growth. Here, we examined the effects of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) primarily on cervical epithelial ... |
Echinacea and Preterm Labor: A Natural Remedy |
2013 |
