abstract：:Intrauterine infection has been associated with fetal brain injury and preterm birth. We have recently shown that repeated exposure to bacterial endotoxin leads to hypoxia and brain injury in the preterm ovine fetus and we considered it possible that endotoxin could also damage the placenta. Our aim therefore was to a...
