Journal ArticleDOI
Improved lactational nutrition and postnatal growth ameliorates impairment of glucose tolerance by uteroplacental insufficiency in male rat offspring.
Andrew L. Siebel,A. L. Mibus,Miles J. De Blasio,Kerryn T. Westcott,Margaret J. Morris,Larissa Prior,Julie A. Owens,Mary E. Wlodek +7 more
TL;DR: Early life is identified as a target for intervention to prevent later diabetes after prenatal restraint in males, and being born small and exposed to an impaired lactational environment adversely affects adult glucose tolerance and first-phase insulin secretion, but improving lactation partially ameliorates this condition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular and renal disease in the adolescent guinea pig after chronic placental insufficiency.
Todd Briscoe,Alexandra E Rehn,Sandra Dieni,Jhodie R. Duncan,Mary E. Wlodek,Julie A. Owens,Sandra Rees +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that diseases in the heart, aorta, and kidneys that result from an adverse prenatal environment are evident at adolescence and may contribute to subsequent adult disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epigenetic origins of metabolic disease: The impact of the maternal condition to the offspring epigenome and later health consequences
TL;DR: The impact of maternal high fat diet to the offspring in early life and the adult health consequences are reviewed and a role for epigenetic modification, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, as a key mechanism underlying developmental programming is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Swallowing of lung liquid and amniotic fluid by the ovine fetus under normoxic and hypoxic conditions
TL;DR: Chloride concentrations provide the best of the three index values for a compositional analysis of fluids swallowed by the fetus under normoxic and hypoxic conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal alcohol intake around the time of conception causes glucose intolerance and insulin insensitivity in rat offspring, which is exacerbated by a postnatal high-fat diet
TL;DR: Maternal alcohol intake around the time of conception causes glucose intolerance and insulin insensitivity in rat offspring, which is exacerbated by a postnatal high‐fat diet.
