Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal low-protein diet during lactation programmes body composition and glucose homeostasis in the adult rat offspring
A. T. S. Fagundes,Egberto Gaspar de Moura,M. C. F. Passos,Elaine de Oliveira,F. P. Toste,Isabela Teixeira Bonomo,Isis Hara Trevenzoli,Raúl Marcel González Garcia,Patricia Cristina Lisboa +8 more
TL;DR: Changes in key hormones which control intermediary metabolism are programmed by maternal protein restriction during lactation, resulting in BW alterations in adult rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neonatal Programming of Neuroimmunomodulation – Role of Adipocytokines and Neuropeptides
TL;DR: The programming effects of these hormones upon body weight, body composition, insulin action, thyroid, adrenal and immune and inflammatory responses, with special emphasis on leptin, a cytokine that seems to play a central role in these events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short- and long-term effects of maternal nicotine exposure during lactation on body adiposity, lipid profile, and thyroid function of rat offspring
Elaine de Oliveira,Egberto Gaspar de Moura,Ana Paula Santos-Silva,A. T. S. Fagundes,A.S. Rios,Yael Abreu-Villaça,J F Nogueira Neto,M. C. F. Passos,Patricia Cristina Lisboa +8 more
TL;DR: It is evidenced that NIC imprints a neonatal thyroid dysfunction and programs for a higher adiposity, hyperleptinemia, and secondary hypothyroidism in adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leptin treatment during the neonatal period is associated with higher food intake and adult body weight in rats.
de Oliveira Cravo C,Cíntia Vilanova Teixeira,M. C. F. Passos,Sheila Cristina Potente Dutra,de Moura Eg,Celso Dario Ramos +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that both periods of lactation constituted a critical window for body weight and food intake programming, but the effects are more marked when the leptin is injected within the first ten days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term effects of malnutrition during lactation on the thyroid function of offspring.
TL;DR: The results showed that thyroid function regulation in adulthood may depend on maternal nutritional condition during lactation, and the hyperthyroidism in the PR group could explain the low body weight observed in those animals.
