Mean ± SD HA levels (presented as pmol/μg GAG ± SD) in the peri-alveolar region of the fetal lung in control fetuses (131d saline-infused, n = 5; 124d antenatal saline-treatment, n = 6; 143d sham operated, n = 6) and fetuses exposed to cortisol-infusion, (131d n = 6), antenatal betamethasone treatment (Beta, 124d, n = 6) or bilaterally adrenalectomised (ADX, 143d, n = 6). All values were measured by FACE analysis and asterisks denote a significant difference between each treatment group (cortisol, ADX or betamethasone) and its relevant control group
