Prenatal undernutrition and postnatal overnutrition alter thyroid hormone axis function in sheep.
Mounting evidence led us to hypothesize that i) function of the thyroid hormone (TH) axis can be programed by late gestation undernutrition (LG-UN) and ii) early-postnatal-life overnutrition (EL-ON) exacerbates the fetal impacts on TH axis function. In a 2 × 2 factorial experiment, 21 twin-bearing sheep were fed one of two diets during late gestation: NORM (fulfilling energy and protein require...
متن کاملProgrammed metabolic syndrome: prenatal undernutrition and postweaning overnutrition.
Maternal nutrient restriction results in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) newborns that develop obesity despite normal postweaning diet. The epidemic of metabolic syndrome is attributed to programmed "thrifty phenotype" and exposure to Western diets. We hypothesized that programmed IUGR newborns would demonstrate greater susceptibility to obesity and metabolic abnormalities in response to...
متن کاملEffects of overnutrition and undernutrition on in vitro fertilization (IVF) and early embryonic development in sheep
Nutrition has been shown to influence several reproductive functions including hormone production, oocyte competence and fertilization, and early embryonic development. To determine effects of maternal diet on in vitro fertilization (IVF) and early embryonic development, ewes (n = 48; 58.4 ± 1.7 kg initial body weight [BW]; 2.3 ± 0.1 initial body condition score [BCS]) were divided into control...
متن کاملPrenatal undernutrition and postnatal growth are associated with adolescent thymic function.
The fetal and early infant origins of a number of adult cardiovascular and metabolic diseases have received considerable attention, but the long-term consequences of early environments for human immune function have not been reported. We investigated the effects of pre- and postnatal environments on thymic hormone production in adolescents participating in an ongoing longitudinal study in the P...
متن کاملDivergent pathways of programming: prenatal vs. postnatal protein undernutrition.
AS FIRST PROPOSED BY David Barker (2) and now supported by numerous epidemiological and experimental studies (1, 12, 21), fetal undernutrition leads to permanent structural and physiological alterations resulting in the development of hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Although epidemiological studies provide the basis for investigation into mechanisms linking birth weight and adult disea...
