Elevated cortisol concentration in preterm sheep fetuses impacts heart development
Abstract The prepartum rise in cortisol promotes cardiac development and maturation. Here, we investigated the impact of elevated circulating cortisol during mid‐late gestation on cardiac growth and metabolism in fetal sheep. Saline or cortisol (2–3 mg in 4.4 mL/24 h) was infused into the fetal jugular vein from 109 to 116 days gestation (dG, term ...
