Summary: The effects of pulsed Doppler ultrasound on microbial
systems, glycoprotein and ganglioside changes in human trophoblast as well
as releasing of placental hormones - HCG, HPL and estriol in the culture
tissue. Blood flow in corpus luteum in normal and abnormal pregnancies is
investigated. The localisation of osteogenic protein 1 in human
trophoblast and embryonic tissue is established. Blood flow in maternal,
placental and fetal vessels in normal and abnormal (diabetic, hypertensive
and IUGR) advanced pregnancies is evaluated. The changes in hystological
findings are correlated with blood flow changes. The investigation of
blood flow in yellow sac and viteline duct and changes in spiral arteries
in normal and abnormal pregnancies is still in progress.
Research goals: The genotoxic effects of pulsed Doppler ultrasound
in culture tissue were investigated in the first part. In the second part
the changes of blood flow in early and late normal and abnormal
pregnancies which could be a cause of spontaneous abortion or indication
of fetal hypoxia were observed.
