We have not however analyzed the changes in the pattern of breathing associated with these events. To do this, we measured the changes in breathing pattern, electrocortical activity and behaviour on 29 occasions in 15 fetal sheep in late gestation. Fetuses were studied during rest, and during lung distention (about 30 cm H2O) with 100% nitrogen (control), 17% oxygen, 100% oxygen and umbilical cord occlusion. Lung distention was obtained using a high frequency oscillator (Senko Co) and in some fetuses a stroke volume of 0 to 20 cm H2O was used to keep PaCO2 near-constant. We found that lung distention with nitrogen or 17% oxygen did not alter the pattern of breathing or behaviour. In 12 out of 34 (35%) experiments 100% oxygen induced continuous breathing, PaO2 increasing to about 250 torr. In the remaining 22 experiments, PaO2 increased to about 100 torr only and breathing was not continuous but it became continuous upon cord occlusion; with occlusion there was a further increase in PaO2 to 190 torr. The increased breathing with oxygen and occlusion was associated with an increase in breathing output (integral of EMGdi x f), an increase in inspiratory drive (integral of EMGdi/Ti), and a decrease in inspiratory (Ti) and expiratory (Te) times.

There was a 72% increase in small intestinal weight, virtually all of which occurred during the first day and was due primarily to a 115% increase in the weight of the mucosa. Associated with the tissue weight gain there was a 24% increase in small intestinal length, a 15% increase in small intestinal diameter, a 33-90% increase in villus height and a 14-51% increase in villus diameter, during the first day. The cellular population in the small intestinal mucosa, as indicated by its DNA content, increased progressively with age, and at three days had increased by 84-154%. The percentage increase in mucosal DNA content was highest in the duodenum, intermediate in the jejunum and lowest in the ileum. Histological features and tissue protein contents revealed a transient epithelial cellular swelling related to intracellular accumulation of protein on the first day. Protein accumulation was evident in the jejunum and ileum but not in the duodenum. The positions of the nuclei in the epithelial cells suggested that on the first day protein absorption was at a more advanced stage in the jejunum and the proximal ileum than in the distal ileum. Large intestinal weight increased by 33% during the first day and had doubled by the third day, and this weight gain was due to both mucosal and non-mucosal tissue growth. Villus-like structures were observed in the caecum and the proximal colon in piglets at birth and one day after birth but not in piglets three days after birth. It is speculated that such villus-like structures may have a functional significance during the transition to complete dependence on oral nutrition in newborns.","PeriodicalId":15572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of developmental physiology","volume":"18 4","pages":"161-72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12458647","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the ovine pituitary during the last third of gestation (term = 145 days) is capable of secreting immunoreactive ACTH (iACTH) in response to various stimuli, plasma cortisol levels frequently do not reflect the rise in plasma ACTH. Therefore, we examined the relationship between plasma iACTH and steroidogenic ACTH-like activity (bACTH) in a group of immature fetal lambs (Group I: gestational age = 97 +/- 2 days, mean +/- SEM, n = 16) and a group of near-term fetuses (Group II: gestational age = 136 +/- 1 days, n = 13) following acute exteriorization. Plasma iACTH was determined by RIA. Plasma bACTH was determined by the ability of glass-extracted material to stimulate corticosterone (B) production in an acutely dispersed rat adrenal bioassay. Plasma iACTH and bACTH levels varied among animals within age groups, with iACTH tending to be higher in immature fetal lambs (Group I) than near-term lambs (Group II) and bACTH being higher (P < 0.05) near term than earlier (Group I: iACTH = 807 +/- 273 pg/ml, bACTH = 173 +/- 44 pg/ml; Group II: iACTH = 405 +/- 85 pg/ml, bACTH = 371 +/- 96 pg/ml).

At day 120 gestation (term = 145 days) fetal sheep were surgically prepared with catheters in the lateral cerebral ventricle, jugular vein and carotid artery and experiments began five days later. Intravenous (i.v.) infusion of prostaglandin E2 (30 or 120 micrograms.h-1) caused a significant dose-related increase in fetal plasma concentrations of ACTH. Despite this increase in ACTH, cortisol was only stimulated after the highest dose of prostaglandin E2. Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) infusion of PGE2 (30 micrograms.h-1) also stimulated ACTH secretion although the peak response was delayed and considerably less compared with the same dose administered intravenously. Prostaglandin F2 alpha administered i.v. or i.c.v. had no effect on circulating concentrations of either ACTH or cortisol. These data provide evidence that prostaglandin E2 can stimulate fetal ACTH secretion by acting in the fetal brain. Furthermore, the greater release of ACTH after i.v. compared with i.c.v. prostaglandin E2 suggests that a site of action other than the brain, such as the pituitary gland, may also be important. These results provide further evidence that during late gestation circulating prostaglandins can act to stimulate fetal pituitary-adrenal maturation.","PeriodicalId":15572,"journal":{"name":"Journal of developmental physiology","volume":"18 4","pages":"173-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12512807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
