Maternal Obesity, Inflammation, and Developmental Programming
The prevalence of obesity, especially in women of child-bearing age, is a global health concern. In addition to increasing the immediate risk of gestational complications, there is accumulating evidence that maternal obesity also has long-term consequences for the offspring. The concept of developmental programming describes the process in which an environmental stimulus, including altered nutr...
متن کاملDietary Proteins, Developmental Programming, and Potential Implication in Maternal Obesity
Background: Proteins are known mainly based on their metabolic and nutritional functions including protein synthesis and a source of energy. In spite of various physiological properties attributed to proteins, their functions have neither been addressed by assessing quality of proteins nor by nutrition and dietetic practices. Methods: Studies were included if they were randomized animal studies...
متن کاملProgramming of infant neurodevelopment by maternal obesity: potential role of maternal inflammation and insulin resistance.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Recent studies show that maternal obesity is associated with impaired offspring neurodevelopmental outcomes. The mechanism underlying the association is unclear. However, there is evidence to suggest a role for intra-uterine exposure to inflammation and insulin resistance (IR). We aimed to determine if maternal IR and inflammation were associated to fetal neurodevelopm...
متن کاملDevelopmental programming and transgenerational transmission of obesity.
The global obesity pandemic is often causally linked to marked changes in diet and lifestyle, namely marked increases in dietary intakes of high-energy diets and concomitant reductions in physical activity levels. However, far less attention has been paid to the role of developmental plasticity and alterations in phenotypic outcomes resulting from environmental perturbations during the early-li...
متن کاملMaternal Obesity, Metabolic Health, and Prenatal Programming of Offspring Obesity
Children born to overweight and obese women, as compared to those of normal weight women, have greater risk for becoming obese themselves and suffering comorbid metabolic health problems. Evidence is accumulating that this increased susceptibility is at least partially attributed to a prenatal programming effect, whereby obesogenic factors in the intrauterine environment alter fetal development...
