2...What is the project trying to achieve?
Is the placenta vulnerable to fluctuating oxygen levels?
The researchers have preliminary evidence that suggests certain structures within cells, called mitochondria, have a vital role to play within the placenta.
Mitochondria are the molecular powerhouses of the cell. They generate the energy that the placenta needs in order to work properly. To do this, mitochondria need a constant supply of oxygen.
However, towards the end of the first three months of pregnancy, when the mother’s blood vessels infiltrate the placenta, its oxygen supply fluctuates dramatically. The researchers believe that fluctuating oxygen levels might stop mitochondria from working properly, meaning they cannot generate enough energy to fulfil the needs of the placenta. This could have knock-on effects on the baby’s health, causing pregnancy complications such as fetal growth restriction.

The researchers are investigating their theories in detail, looking at the molecular pathways involved. They are studying the effect of a fluctuating oxygen supply on mitochondria in cells from placentas taken from 50 to 100 women, some with healthy pregnancies, some whose babies have fetal growth restriction and others who live at high altitude, where oxygen levels are low.

My advise

1...    All most of all parts of your body require Oxygen to avoid infections or other health problems
2...    Your digestion system needs Oxygen to digest your food.
3....   Your brain, heart and kidneys need oxygen for round the clock for proper functions.
4...    During in your pregnancy your unborn child needs more oxygen for development of his Brain and all other parts which you have to supply.   For that you should minimize your body consumption by following healthy food so that you can supply needed oxygen to your child.
