Fetal Neuroprotective Strategies: Therapeutic Agents and Their Underlying Synaptic Pathways

Synaptic signaling is integral for proper brain function. During fetal development, exposure to inflammation or mild hypoxic-ischemic insult may lead to synaptic changes and neurological damage that impairs future brain function. Preterm neonates are most susceptible to these deleterious outcomes. E...
