Antiviral Inflammation during Early Pregnancy Reduces Placental and Fetal Growth Trajectories

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Many viruses are detrimental to pregnancy and negatively affect fetal growth and development. What is not well understood is how virus-induced inflammation impacts fetal–placental growth and developmental trajectories, particularly when inflammation occurs in early pregnancy during nascent placental and embryo development. To address this issue, we simulated a systemic virus exposure in early pregnant...
