Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia causes deleterious effects on the reproductive system in female rats

Numerous studies have revealed that hypobaric hypoxia exposure elicited imbalance of homeostasis. However, the effects of intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) exposure on the female reproductive system have been rarely reported. This study aims to assess the effects of IHH on rat female reproductive system and explore the corresponding mechanism at the histological, endocrine and molecular levels. The female rats were randomly divided into...
