Prenatal alcohol exposure is associated with altered feto-placental blood flow and sex-specific placental changes
10 Feb 2025

BACKGROUNDPrenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) around conception in preclinical models results in placental insufficiency, likely contributing to offspring abnormalities. Altered placental DNA methylation (DNAm) and gene expression suggest epigenetic mechanisms, perhaps involving impacts on methyl donor levels.
