Whilst the fetal cardiovascular response to acute hypoxia is well established, the fetal defence to chronic hypoxia is not well understood due to experiment constraints. Growth restriction results primarily from reduced oxygen and nutrient supply to the developing fetus, resulting in chronic hypoxia. The fetus adapts to chronic hypoxia by redistributing cardiac output via brain sparing in an attempt to preserve function in the developing brain. This review highlights the impact of brain sparing on the developing fetal cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems, as well as emerging long-term effects in offspring that were growth restricted at birth. Here, we explore the pathogenesis associated with brain sparing within the cerebrovascular system. An increased understanding of the mechanistic pathways will be critical to preventing neuropathological outcomes, including motor dysfunction such as cerebral palsy, or behaviour dysfunctions including autism and attention-deficit\/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms22147555","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,14]],"date-time":"2021-07-14T10:13:42Z","timestamp":1626257622000},"page":"7555","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Implications of Growth Restriction: Mechanisms and Potential Treatments"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4719-4175","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Charmaine R.","family":"Rock","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ritchie Centre, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, Clayton 3168, Australia"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Monash University, Clayton 3168, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tegan A.","family":"White","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ritchie Centre, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, Clayton 3168, Australia"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Monash University, Clayton 3168, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Beth R.","family":"Piscopo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ritchie Centre, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, Clayton 3168, Australia"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Monash University, Clayton 3168, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4807-2340","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amy E.","family":"Sutherland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ritchie Centre, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, Clayton 3168, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Suzanne L.","family":"Miller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ritchie Centre, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, Clayton 3168, Australia"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Monash University, Clayton 3168, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emily J.","family":"Camm","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ritchie Centre, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, Clayton 3168, Australia"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Monash University, Clayton 3168, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1060-513X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Beth J.","family":"Allison","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ritchie Centre, Hudson Institute of Medical Research, Clayton 3168, Australia"},{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Monash University, Clayton 3168, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"184","DOI":"10.1038\/pr.2017.37","article-title":"Detection and assessment of brain injury in the growth-restricted fetus and neonate","volume":"82","author":"Malhotra","year":"2017","journal-title":"Pediatr.
