Structural proteins during brain development in the preterm and near-term ovine fetus and the effect of intermittent umbilical cord occlusion

Article Abstract:

The immunoreactivity of selected structural proteins in the preterm and near-term ovine fetal brain, and the response to intermittent umbilical cord occlusion as a measure of altered cellular growth are determined. Considerable change is observed in the immunoreactivity of structural proteins within the ovine fetal brain over the latter part of gestation and consistent with a high rate of protein turnover.

Intermittent umbilical cord occlusion in the ovine fetus near term: effects on behavioral state activity

Article Abstract:

Low oxygen levels affect a behavioral state called low-voltage rapid-eye-movement in the sheep fetus. This behavioral state is believed to occur during periods of brain development, indicating that low oxygen levels could affect brain development.

Cerebral blood flow and metabolism in relation to electrocortical activity with severe umbilical cord occlusion in the near-term ovine fetus

Article Abstract:

Compression of the umbilical cord can reduce the amount of oxygen in the brain, according to a study in pregnant sheep. This can injure the brain, and human babies born with this condition show neurological disabilities at one year of age.
