Effects of heat on embryos and foetuses

1 Jan 2003

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: This paper reviews the effects of elevated maternal temperature on embryo and foetal development in experimental animals and in humans. CONCLUSIONS: Hyperthermia during pregnancy can cause embryonic death, abortion, growth retardation and developmental defects. Processes critical to embryonic development, such as cell proliferation, migration, differentiation and programmed cell death (apoptosis) are...
