Initiation of human parturition: signaling from senescent fetal tissues via extracellular vesicle mediated paracrine mechanism

A better understanding of the underlying mechanisms by which signals from the fetus initiate human parturition is required. Our recent findings support the core hypothesis that oxidative stress (OS) and cellular senescence of the fetal membranes (amnion and chorion) trigger human parturition. Fetal...
