Compensatory placental hypervascularization in a rat model of early-stage, diet-induced maternal obesity

2025-07-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> Maternal obesity is usually associated with placental hypovascularity. This study aimed to challenge this paradigm by investigating the immediate vascular adaptations in the placental labyrinth zone in response to short-term, diet-induced obesity. The study hypothesised that there would be an initial compensatory hypervascularisation before the onset of systemic metabolic disease. <h4>Methods</...
