The main objective of the proposed project is study new inflammatory molecules, identified or studied by the groups participating in the pathogenesis of abnormalities of the embryo and the feto-placental development. These molecules are located in different level of validation in relation to their role in maternal-child health, and the proposed project will assess not only the role but also the pathogenic potential transfer to the clinic. A second purpose is represented by evaluation of mitochondrial element for the cellular activities that are very intense during intrauterine life, which was made recently in relation to metabolic abnormalities typical of inflammatory and nutritional.
