Gender-linked hypertension in offspring of lard-fed pregnant rats.
Epidemiological studies suggest an association between maternal nutrition and offspring cardiovascular disease. We previously demonstrated endothelial dysfunction and abnormal aortic fatty acid composition in adult female offspring of rats fed animal lard during pregnancy. We have now further investigated this model. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a control breeding diet (5.3% fat) or a di...
متن کاملRenal denervation abolishes hypertension in low-birth-weight offspring from pregnant rats with reduced uterine perfusion.
Low birth weight is a risk factor for the subsequent development of hypertension in humans. We previously reported that reduced uterine perfusion in the pregnant rat results in growth-restricted offspring predisposed to the development of hypertension. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the sympathetic nervous system plays a role in mediating hypertension in this model of low bi...
متن کاملEffect of arachidonate on lipid metabolism in ethanol-treated rats fed with lard.
Two groups of rats, ethanol-treated and sucrose-administered control rats, were fed diets with different AA content (0, 2 and 3% weight) for 14 days. Ethanol was administered by gavage at a single daily dose of 3 g/kg body weight. The ethanol-treated rats showed significantly higher levels (p < 0.01) of serum ALT activity. The dietary AA supplement lowered the serum ALT activity and liver trigl...
متن کاملGender differences in the dietary lard-induced increase in blood pressure in rats.
We investigated the difference between male and female rats in the increase in blood pressure (BP) when they were fed a lard-enriched diet. We also investigated the effect of a gonadectomy, with or without testosterone treatment, on the dietary lard-induced increase in BP. Wistar-strain male or female rats were bilaterally castrated or ovariectomized. Some of them were implanted subcutaneously ...
متن کاملEffects of troxerutin on inflammatory cytokines and BDNF levels in male offspring of high-fat diet fed rats
Objective: In the present study, we aimed to examine the effect of troxerutin treatment on levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), as pro-inflammatory cytokines, in the blood and hippocampus of high-fat diet (HFD) fed dams and their male offspring. <span ...
