Fig. 37.1

The fetal ductus arteriosus was studied in the near-term fetus or newborn rat following rapid whole-body freezing, cutting on the freezing microtome, with a microscope and a micrometer. The control fetus shows a widely open ductus (a), and the fetus with glibenclamide (10 mg/kg; 10–100 times clinical dose injected at 1 h before) shows severely constricted ductus (b). AA aortic arch, DA ductus arteriosus, LA left atrium, LPA left pulmonary artery, LSVC left superior vena cava, RPA right pulmonary artery, T thymus
