The relationship between human placental morphometry and ultrasonic measurements of utero-placental blood flow and fetal growth.

INTRODUCTION Ultrasonic fetal biometry and arterial Doppler flow velocimetry are widely used to assess the risk of pregnancy complications. There is an extensive literature on the relationship between pregnancy outcomes and the size and shape of the placenta. However, ultrasonic fetal biometry and arterial Doppler flow velocimetry have not previously been studied in relation to postnatal placen...

Chronic alterations in ovine maternal corticosteroid levels influence uterine blood flow and placental and fetal growth.

Previous work from this laboratory demonstrated that the elevation of maternal plasma corticosteroid concentrations during pregnancy is important for the support of fetal development. Reducing ovine maternal plasma cortisol concentrations to nonpregnant levels stimulates homeostatic responses that defend fetal blood volume. The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that chronic decr...

Effects of chronic reduction in uterine blood flow on fetal and placental growth in the sheep.

Pregnancy is associated with a significant increase in uteroplacental blood flow (UBF), which is responsible for delivering adequate nutrients and oxygen for fetal and placental growth. The present study was designed to determine the effects of vascular insufficiency on fetal and placental growth. Thirty-nine late-term pregnant ewes were instrumented to investigate the effects of chronic UBF re...

Endothelial NO synthase augments fetoplacental blood flow, placental vascularization, and fetal growth in mice.

It is not known whether eNOS deficiency in the mother or the conceptus (ie, placenta and fetus) causes fetal growth restriction in mice lacking the endothelial NO synthase gene (eNOS knockout [KO]). We hypothesized that eNOS sustains fetal growth by maintaining low fetoplacental vascular tone and promoting fetoplacental vascularity and that this is a conceptus effect and is independent of mater...
