Vascular Biology of the Placenta, Paperback / softback Book

Vascular Biology of the Placenta Paperback / softback

Part of the Colloquium Series on Integrated Systems Physiology: From Molecule to Function to Disease series

Paperback / softback

Description

The placenta is an organ that connects the developing fetus to the uterine wall, thereby allowing nutrient uptake, waste elimination, and gas exchange via the mother's blood supply.

Proper vascular development in the placenta is fundamental to ensuring a healthy fetus and successful pregnancy.

This book provides an up-to-date summary and synthesis of knowledge regarding placental vascular biology and discusses the relevance of this vascular bed to the functions of the human placenta.
