A Low Molecular Weight Heparin Alters the Fetal Coagulation System in the Pregnant Sheep

Abstract

Standard heparin and a LMWH, CY222 do not cross the placenta nor alter fetal coagulation when injected into the pregnant ewe. We found that another LMWH, Pharmuka-10169 (PK-10169) alters fetal coagulation without crossing the placenta in the pregnant sheep. To characterize this anticoagulant we measured the in vitro and in vivo effects of 125I-PK-10169 in maternal and fetal plasmas following administration of PK-10169 to the mother or fetus. …
