Alcohol exposure during pregnancy induces cardiac mitochondrial damage in offspring mice
1 Jun 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) has been linked to congenital heart disease and fetal alcohol syndrome. The heart primarily relies on mitochondria to generate energy, so impaired mitochondrial function due to alcohol exposure can significantly affect cardiac development and function. Our study aimed to investigate the impact of PAE on myocardial and mitochondrial functions in offspring mice. METHODS:...
