Scientists from the University of Illinois have first discovered the heavy flu in pregnant mice. The results were published in the magazine "Brain, Behavior, And Immunity" (BBI).
The friendly barrier is a thin epithelial layer that prevents the direct mix of maternal and fruit blood during pregnancy. It was previously assumed that it protects the developing brain from external factors.
However, the study of the living flu A virus has shown that during heavy flu infection, the muscle has accumulated in the fruit, which should not usually enter the fruit of the fruit. Among those materials was fibrinogen, inflammatory and neurodegenerative protein protein.
Fibrinogen is involved in the blood coagulation. Its availability in the body is important in early pregnancy, but its accumulation in the brain can cause oxidative stress and neuronal damage. This molecule was first discovered in the fruit brain, under the influence of the living virus, not to imitate the infection, as in previous studies.
Fluorescent molects of different sizes have been injected to pregnant mice to control the penetration of the wall. During the heavy flu, the largest molecules penetrated the fruit brain.
Especially high penetration was observed in the subordinate zone and the Khoroid Covenant, in the main parts of the brain, where neurons are formed. This may indicate a potential risk for the development of the nervous system during an intrauterine infection.
Scientists say the experience was held on mice, and its results require further pre-clinical and clinical approval. However, according to the authors of the study, the method is close to the real world.
"Every pregnant woman infected with virus is born with a child's nervous system development disorders. It is possible that there is a certain threshold of infection or pathology, in which case the risk of problems increases. " However, the vaccination of the flu can help avoid serious consequences, so it is best to ignore the procedure, "said scientists.
