abstract：:Intrauterine perfusion failure can cause cerebral malformations. We investigated the effect of transient maternal hypotension on newborn rat brain by inducing hypovolemic hypotension for 2.5 h during early embryonic day 7 (E7) or late (E15) gestation in pregnant rats. We found an increase in the number of TUNEL-positi...
