Investigating the Impact of Chronical Prenatal Alcohol Exposure on Fetal Vascular Development Across Pregnancy Stages Using Photoacoustic Tomography

Author(s): Hao Yang, Md Farhan Tanvir, Huabei Jiang ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of chronic prenatal alcohol exposure on fetal brain vascular development in mice using photoacoustic tomography. Key vascular parameters such as vessel diameter, density, and oxygen saturation were analyzed from embryonic Days 10 to 20. Results demonstrate significant vascular disruptions in alcohol-exposed groups […]

PHOTOACOUSTIC IMAGING FOR IN VIVO QUANTIFICATION OF ALCOHOL-INDUCED STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL CHANGES IN CEREBRAL VASCULATURE IN HIGH ALCOHOL-PREFERRING MICE (HAP)

Authors: Augustine Meombe Mbolle, Hao Yang, Huabei Jiang* ABSTRACT Alcohol-induced structural and functional changes were studied in vivo by photoacoustic tomography (PAT) of the cerebrovascular system in selectively bred alcohol-preferring mice. High (HAP) and low (LAP) alcohol-preferring mice are replicate lines of mice selectively bred to prefer 10% (v/v) ethanol to water and water to […]
