Maternal Antioxidant Treatment Protects Adult Offspring Against Memory Loss and Hippocampal Atrophy in a Rodent Model of Developmental Hypoxia
Abstract: Chronic fetal hypoxia is one of the most common outcomes in complicated pregnancy in humans. Despite this, its effects on the long‐term health of the brain in offspring are largely unknown. Here, we investigated in...
