Journal ArticleDOI
Lipid Metabolism in Pregnancy and its Consequences in the Fetus and Newborn
TL;DR: The nutritional status of the mother during gestation has been related to fetal growth, and excessive intake of certain long chain fatty acids may cause both declines in arachidonic acid and enhanced lipid peroxidation, reducing antioxidant capacity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal lipids as strong determinants of fetal environment and growth in pregnancies with gestational diabetes mellitus.
Ute M. Schaefer-Graf,K Graf,Irina Kulbacka,Siri L. Kjos,Joachim W. Dudenhausen,Klaus Vetter,Emilio Herrera +6 more
TL;DR: In well-controlled GDM pregnancies, maternal lipids are strong predictors for fetal lipids and fetal growth, while insulin-to-glucose ratio and FFAs were the highest in LGA newborns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of simple indexes to assess insulin sensitivity during pregnancy in Wistar and Sprague-Dawley rats
TL;DR: These indexes provide an easy and accurate measure of insulin sensitivity during pregnancy in the rat and are found to have good sensitivity and specificity, accurately predicted SI(Clamp), and yielded lower insulin sensitivity in pregnant than in nonpregnant rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vitamin e: action, metabolism and perspectives
Emilio Herrera,Coral Barbas +1 more
TL;DR: A major proportion of α-tocopherol is incorporated into nascent very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), whereas the excess ofα-tocouserol plus the other forms of vitamin E are excreted in bile.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implications of dietary fatty acids during pregnancy on placental, fetal and postnatal development--a review.
TL;DR: Nutritional status of the mother during gestation is related to fetal growth, and excessive dietary intake of certain LCPUFA has inhibitory effects on Delta-5- and Delta-6-desaturases, so additional studies are needed before recommendations to increase LC PUFA intake in pregnancy are made.
