[Prenatal moderate effects of alcohol on ultrastructure of cortical capillaries in the offspring].
Sensorimotor cortex of rat 21- and 30-day-old offspring given prenatally moderate alcohol doses revealed signs of hemodynamic, ultrastructural capillary and compensatory-adaptive changes. The 60-day-old offspring displayed the tendency to hemodynamic and ultrastructural reversibility in remaining edema of the pericapillary processes of astrocytes. It is suggested that the deficiency of cerebral circulation is a delayed aftereffect of prenatal brain hypoxia. Under alcohol intoxication before pregnancy the edema was not observed. There was polymorphism of ultrastructure of cortical capillaries and immature vessels in the offspring.
