Oxidative stress (OS) plays a pivotal role in placental development; however, abnormal
loads in oxidative stress molecules may overwhelm the placental defense mechanisms and …

In brief Placental oxidative stress contributes to both normal and abnormal placentation
during pregnancy. This review discusses the potential consequence of oxidative stress …

Oxidative stress (OS), an imbalance between free radical generation and antioxidant
defence, is recognized as a key factor in the pathogenesis of adverse pregnancy outcomes …

The most important function of the placenta is the exchange of nutrients and oxygen
between a mother and her fetus. To establish a healthy functioning placenta, placentation …

During pregnancy, the placenta is a site of active oxygen metabolism that continuously
generates oxidative stress (OS). Overproduction of reactive oxygen species and reactive …

Considerable evidence implicates oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of many
complications of human pregnancy, and this topic has now become a major focus of both …

Oxidative stress designates the state of imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS)
production and antioxidant levels. In a healthy placenta, there is an increase in ROS …

Cells living under aerobic conditions always face oxygen paradox. While physiological
levels of oxygen are necessary for cells to maintain their lives, toxic reactive oxygen species …

Pregnancy is a state of oxidative stress arising from increased placental mitochondrial
activity and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mainly superoxide anion. The …

Hypoxia is a common form of intrauterine stress characterized by exposure to low oxygen
concentrations. Gestational hypoxia is associated with the generation of reactive oxygen …
