Adenosine concentrations were measured in umbilical venous blood obtained by cordocentesis from 14 fetuses of 19-34 weeks' gestation. The concentration did not change significantly with gestational age, but anaemic fetuses showed significantly increased concentrations of adenosine and there was a positive association with blood oxygen tension. These findings suggest that the fetus responds to tissue hypoxia by increasing blood adenosine concentrations from at least 19 weeks' gestation.
通过脐静脉穿刺从14例孕19 - 34周胎儿获取脐静脉血,测量其中腺苷浓度。该浓度并未随孕周显著变化,但贫血胎儿的腺苷浓度显著升高,且与血氧张力呈正相关。这些发现表明,至少从孕19周起,胎儿通过增加血液腺苷浓度来应对组织缺氧。
