Renal responses to prolonged (48 h) hypoxemia without acidemia in the late-gestation ovine fetus.
The effect of sustained moderate hypoxia on renal blood flow and renal function was studied in the ovine fetus (123-129 days). The experiments consisted of 48 h of isocapnic hypoxia, not resulting in acidemia, but sufficient to produce redistribution of blood flow in favor of the brain at the expense of the carcass. Hypoxemia was induced by maternal nitrogen inhalation. Fetal arterial O2 satura...
متن کاملSwallowing, urine flow, and amniotic fluid volume responses to prolonged hypoxia in the ovine fetus.
OBJECTIVE Four days of hypoxia produce an extensive fetal polyuria with little change in amniotic fluid volume in the ovine fetus. We hypothesized that fetal swallowing and intramembranous absorption would increase with prolonged hypoxia to offset the polyuria. STUDY DESIGN After a 24-hour normoxic period, nine ovine fetuses were subjected to 4 days of hypoxia induced by lowering maternal ins...
متن کاملAdrenocortical and Adipose Responses to High-Altitude-Induced, Long-Term Hypoxia in the Ovine Fetus
By late gestation, the maturing hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis aids the fetus in responding to stress. Hypoxia represents a significant threat to the fetus accompanying situations such as preeclampsia, smoking, high altitude, and preterm labor. We developed a model of high-altitude (3,820 m), long-term hypoxia (LTH) in pregnant sheep. We describe the impact of LTH on the fetal HPA axi...
متن کاملErythropoietin responses to progressive blood loss over 10 days in the ovine fetus.
Long-term loss of fetal blood can occur with fetomaternal hemorrhage, vasoprevia, or placental previa. Our objective was to determine the effects of progressive fetal blood loss over 10 days on fetal plasma erythropoietin (EPO) concentration and its relationship to arterial PO(2), hematocrit, and the volume of blood loss. Late-gestation fetal sheep (n = 8) were hemorrhaged daily at a rate of 1 ...
متن کاملAngiotensin-(1--7) in the ovine fetus.
In the adult animal, ANG-(1-7) may counterbalance some effects of ANG II. Its effects in the fetus are unknown. Basal ANG-(1-7), ANG I, ANG II, and renin concentrations were measured in plasma from ovine fetuses and their mothers (n = 10) at 111 days of gestation. In the fetus, concentrations of ANG I, ANG-(1-7), and ANG II were 86 +/- 21, 13 +/- 2, and 14 +/- 2 fmol/ml, respectively. In the ew...
