Evaluation of chondrogenesis and osteogenesis via Wnt/β-Catenin, S100 immunoexpression and histomorphometry in fetal rats following maternal uterine artery ligation
Abstract:The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of intrauterine growth retardation depending on maternal uterine artery ligation model, Wnt/β-catenin and S100 expression immunohistochemistry and histomorphometrically on growth plate and bone tissue of fetal rats. Materials and Methods: Maternal rats were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=5). No surgery or anesthesia were applied in control group. Bilaterally the maternal uterine arteries were ligated on gestational day 18 in experimental group. Although al… Show more
