[Prenatal hypoxic stress: physiological and biochemical consequences, correction by regulator peptides]

The review is devoted to the problem of prenatal hypoxia influence on central and vegetative nervous system, cardio-vascular and respiratory systems, cell metabolism. It is shown that perinatal hypoxia is often resulted in severe non-reversal functional disorders of postnatal development based on significant morphological changes. Regulatory peptide pretreatment is discussed as one of the methods for correction of pre- and postnatal hypoxic consequences.
