We
investigated leukocyte involvement in uterine hypoperfusion and
intrauterine fetal growth retardation (IUGR) induced by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in Sprague-Dawley rats. On day
17 of gestation, leukocyte accumulation in the uterus and placenta
subjected to 30 min of ischemia, followed by reperfusion, was
assessed by measuring myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. Uterine MPO
activity was significantly higher after 1 h of reperfusion than it
was before ischemia ( P |
