Exposure to cadmium determines structural changes in the placenta.
In the present work, the effect of Cd administered at different pregnancy
times (4, 7, 10 and 15 days of gestation) on the placental
structure of rat was study. Samples of placentas obtained from
Wistar rats, 20 days of pregnancy, both control and administered
with CdCl2, 10 mg Cd / kg at 4, 7, 10 and 15 days of gestation. All
the placentas were weighed and measured, then processed for paraffin
embedding. Histological slices were stained with Hematoxilin/
Eosin, for morphometric analysis. Measures were performed on
different fields of each slice determining: a) distance between fetal
vessels, b) greater length of fetal vessels and c) maternal space
between capillaries. Results were analyzed by ANOVA. Significant
statistical differences (P<0.05) were only observed between
placental diameters from animals intoxicated on day 4 and controls.
In the analyzed placentas, a statistically significant (P<0.05)
increase in the distance between blood vessels and thickness of
maternal space were observed between treated and control animals.
Also, a decrease in the length of blood vessels (p<0,05) in treated
animals compared to controls was observed. These results show
that Cd intoxication affects the placental capillary bed, and could
modify the placental blood flow and angiogenesis, which could
contribute to a decreased fetal development.
