ULTRASTRUCTURAL CHANGES IN THE PLACENTA OF THE EWE FOLLOWING FOETAL INFUSION OF CORTISOL

摘要: The placental changes which followed continuous infusion of cortisol into the sheep foetus in later stages gestation were, like hormonal changes, broadly similar to those spontaneous parturition. There was, however, a premature separation foetal and maternal tissues certain areas cotyledons, this appeared protect epithelium from degenerative normally take place short space time between birth lamb delivery membranes. results suggest that an experimental model labour is induced by administration probably incomplete, additional factors almost certainly contribute cascade phenomenon
