![]() The catecholamine content and activity of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in vivo were assayed by HPLC with electrochemical detection. ![]() The offspring were examined on the 19th d of gestation (E19), the day of birth (P0), and at postnatal (P) day of life P3, P7, P14, P21, and P68. Pregnant rats were subjected to hypoxia (10% O 2) from the fifth to the 20th d of gestation. The objective of the present study was to determine the influence of long-term prenatal hypoxia on maturation of the adrenal medulla. A number of pathologic situations are characterized by oxygen deficiency. Catecholamine release from the adrenal medulla glands plays a vital role in postnatal adaptation.
