Maternal Nutrition and Fetal Programming
Introduction The maternal system can be influenced by many different extrinsic factors, including nutritional status, which can program nutrient partitioning and ultimately growth, development and function of the major fetal organ systems (Wallace, 1948; Wallace et al., 1999; Godfrey and Barker, 2000; Wu et al., 2006). The trajectory of prenatal growth is sensitive to direct and indirect effect...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Nutritional Sciences Maternal Nutrition and Fetal Development
Nutrition is the major intrauterine environmental factor that alters expression of the fetal genome and may have lifelong consequences. This phenomenon, termed “fetal programming,” has led to the recent theory of “fetal origins of adult disease.” Namely, alterations in fetal nutrition and endocrine status may result in developmental adaptations that permanently change the structure, physiology,...
متن کاملMaternal nutrition, fetal nutrition, and disease in later life.
Recent findings suggest that many human fetuses have to adapt to a limited supply of nutrients and in doing so they permanently change their physiology and metabolism. These "programmed" changes may be the origins of a number of diseases in later life, including coronary heart disease and the related disorders stroke, diabetes, and hypertension.
متن کاملPregnancy, embryo-fetal development and nutrition: physiology around fetal programming
The purpose of this brief narrative review is to highlight the role of nutrition during the gestation period. We focused on the possible effects of imbalance of some nutrients in normal course of pregnancy and embryonic development. We discussed about changes in nutritional and/or hormonal embryonic microenvironment, which represent the basis of a phenomenon known as “fetal programming”. We str...
متن کاملEffects of maternal smoking on fetal growth and nutrition.
Standard anthropometric measurements were made on 320 term neonates to investigate the influence of smoking on fetal growth and nutrition. Maternal height and triceps skinfold thickness were also measured. Of 320 infants, 126 (39%) were born to mothers who smoked. Maternal triceps skinfold thickness was significantly smaller in smoking mothers. A correlation existed between maternal and infant ...
