How does fetal inflammatory response syndrome change fetal response to hypoxia? An experimental study in a fetal sheep model [PDF]
Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica ScandinavicaIntroduction Fetal inflammatory response syndrome associated with acidosis during labor is a high‐risk situation for the fetus. This study evaluated hemodynamic, gasometric, and heart rate variability changes during acute fetal inflammatory response ...

Uterine artery blood flow, fetal hypoxia and fetal growth [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015 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 ...

Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol, 2019 The availability of oxygen to the fetus is limited by the route taken by oxygen from the atmosphere to fetal tissues, aided or diminished by pregnancy-associated changes in maternal physiology and, ultimately, a function of atmospheric pressure and ...

Fetal hypoxia and apoptosis following maternal porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection [PDF]
BMC Veterinary Research, 2021 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.

Antioxidants: powering the fight against fetal hypoxia. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol SciHypoxia is a common challenge in fetal development. Short-term acute episodes occur during labour owing to uterine contractions or umbilical cord compression. In response, the fetus prioritizes oxygen and nutrient delivery to the brain, heart and adrenal glands at the expense of other organs, a mechanism known as the fetal brain-sparing response ...

Neurobiology of Disease, 2014 Gestational hypoxia is a common stress to the fetal development and increases the risk of neonatal morbidity. The present study tested the hypothesis that fetal hypoxia results in heightened brain vulnerability to hypoxic–ischemic (HI) injury in neonatal

Fetal programming of the cardiac mitochondrial permeability transition pore in male offspring from hypoxic pregnancies [PDF]
Redox BiologyA lack of oxygen during fetal development (fetal hypoxia) permanently alters the structure and function of the heart, leading to increased susceptibility to ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury in adulthood.
