Uterine perivascular adipose tissue is a novel mediator of uterine artery blood flow and reactivity in rat pregnancy
Abstract
In vivo, uterine perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) potentiates uterine artery blood flow in pregnant rats, although not in non-pregnant rats. In isolated preparations, uterine PVAT has pro-contractile and anti-dilatory effects on uterine arteries. Pregnancy induces changes in uterine arteries that makes them responsive to uterine PVAT signalling.An increase in uterine artery blood flow (UtBF) is a common and necessary feature of a healthy...
