Prenatal cold stress is one of the earliest factors affecting mammalian health, and is
associated with neonatal growth retardation and immune dysfunction, thus increasing …

Our previous studies have shown that prenatal cold stress leads to placental inflammatory
response and induces anxiety-like behavior reduced in offspring rats. However, the role and …

High ambient temperature-induced heat stress (HS) during pregnancy may affect the
placental function and fetal development. Late gestation is a critical period of the developing …

Maternal stress is a key risk factor in the development of offspring. We previously identified
prenatal cold stress-induced anxiety-like behavior reduced in the offspring of rats along with …

Pregnancy is increasingly considered a period of vulnerability for extreme heat exposure.
Multiple lines of evidence support that heat stress is associated with placental insufficiency …

In mammals, environmental factors including cold stress exert dramatic effects on adult
health during late gestation, the cold stress response refers to an organism's response to …

Introduction A physiological hypoxia environment exists at maternal-fetal interface during
early pregnancy. In addition, there is a pathological hypoxic microenvironment in patients …

Physiological adaptations during heat exposure are critical in pregnancy. Maternal
thermoregulation has to accommodate the increased metabolic load of the developing fetus …

Sleep deprivation is a common problem during pregnancy, but its impact on the fetus
remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the effect of sleep deprivation during pregnancy …

Ambient air temperature is a key factor affecting human health. Female reproductive
disorders are representative health risk events under low temperature. However, the …
