Chronic moderate hypoxia, such as occurs in fetal growth restriction (FGR) during gestation, compromises the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and results in structural abnormalities of the cerebral vasculature. We have previously determined the neuroprotective and antioxidant effects of maternal

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) complicates 5-10% of pregnancies and is associated with increased risks of perinatal morbidity and mortality. The development of cerebellar neuropathology in utero, in response to chronic fetal hypoxia, and over the period of high risk for preterm birth, has not

Broken cell preparations of rat and human placentas contain an inner (tyrosyl)-ring iodothyronine deiodinase enzyme with greatest activity when the substrate is 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3). This report describes the deiodination of T3 in the intact placenta and the effect of sodium iopanoate (IA)

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) and prematurity are associated with risk of brain injury and long-term neurological deficits. FGR infants born preterm are commonly exposed to mechanical ventilation, but it is not known whether ventilation differentially induces brain pathology in FGR infants,
