Sex-Specific Effects of Nanoparticle-Encapsulated MitoQ (nMitoQ) Delivery to the Placenta in a Rat Model of Fetal Hypoxia [PDF]
Pregnancy complications associated with chronic fetal hypoxia have been linked to the development of adult cardiovascular disease in the offspring. Prenatal hypoxia has been shown to increase placental oxidative stress and impair placental function in a ...

Nucleated Red Blood Cells as a Marker of Acute and Chronic Fetal Hypoxia in a Rat Model [PDF]
Objective To examine the relationship between duration of fetal hypoxia, nucleated red blood cell (NRBC) count, and fetal growth. Methods Pregnant rats were exposed to a severe hypoxia (9.5%–10% O2) for varying time intervals (2, 6, 12, 24, 48, and ...

Uterine artery blood flow, fetal hypoxia and fetal growth. [PDF]
Evolutionary trade-offs required for bipedalism and brain expansion influence the pregnancy rise in uterine artery (UtA) blood flow and, in turn, reproductive success. We consider the importance of UtA blood flow by reviewing its determinants and presenting data from 191 normotensive (normal, n = 125) or ...

Fetal hypoxia results in sex- and cell type-specific alterations in neonatal transcription in rat oligodendrocyte precursor cells, microglia, neurons, and oligodendrocytes [PDF]
Background Fetal hypoxia causes vital, systemic, developmental malformations in the fetus, particularly in the brain, and increases the risk of diseases in later life. We previously demonstrated that fetal hypoxia exposure increases the susceptibility of

Chronic fetal hypoxia and antenatal Vitamin C exposure differentially regulate molecular signalling in the lung of female lambs in early adulthood [PDF]
IntroductionChronic fetal hypoxia is commonly associated with fetal growth restriction and can predispose to respiratory disease at birth and in later life. Antenatal antioxidant treatment has been investigated to overcome the effects of oxidative stress

Fetal hypoxia and apoptosis following maternal porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection [PDF]
Background Mechanisms of fetal death following maternal PRRSV2 infection remain uncharacterized, although hypoxia from umbilical cord lesions and/or placental detachment due to apoptosis are hypothesized.

Hypoxia in extravillous trophoblasts links maternal obesity and offspring neurobehavior [PDF]
Summary: While maternal obesity (MO) is associated with neurobehavioral impairment (NBI) in offspring, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. The placenta is thought to play a role in fetal programming.

Humans at high altitude: Hypoxia and fetal growth [PDF]
High-altitude studies offer insight into the evolutionary processes and physiological mechanisms affecting the early phases of the human lifespan. Chronic hypoxia slows fetal growth and reduces the pregnancy-associated rise in uterine artery (UA) blood flow. Multigenerational vs.

Diagnostic value of combined maternal cardiac work and fetoplacental circulation parameters in detecting fetal intrauterine hypoxia in preeclamptic women [PDF]
To investigate the correlation between fetoplacental circulation and maternal left ventricular myocardial work (MW) parameters in patients with preeclampsia (PE) and the prediction of fetal hypoxia.
