Maternal protein deficiency affects mesenchymal stem cell activity in the developing offspring

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a rat model of maternal protein insufficiency to investigate the cellular mechanisms involved in the programming of bone development and found that normal proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells were delayed by maternal protein restriction during early life.

The fetal origins of peak bone mass: Maternal protein deficiency affects mesenchymal stem cell activity in the developing offspring.

TL;DR: Normal proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells were delayed by maternal protein restriction during early life and may represent an important candidate mechanism for the programming of osteoporosis and associated consequences in later life.

Maternal low‐protein diet affects bone mass and mineral metabolism in suckling rats

TL;DR: The results showed that protein-restricted diet given to mothers during late pregnancy and early post-natal periods induced changes in body weight, skeletal growth and bone metabolism in their offspring.
