The status of diabetic embryopathy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Diabetic embryopathy is a theoretical enigma and a clinical challenge. Both type 1 and type 2 diabetic pregnancy carry a significant risk for fetal maldevelopment, and the precise reasons for the diabetes-induced teratogenicity are not clearly identified. The experimental work in this field has revealed a partial, however complex, answer to the teratological question, and we will review some of the latest suggestions.

Embryo-Protective Effects Of Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles Against Gestational Diabetes in Mice
Context: Gestational diabetes is defined as carbohydrate intolerance with onset or first recognition during pregnancy. Diabetes during pregnancy increases the incidences of congenital anomalies, in a mother and her embryo. Oxidative stress has been implicated to be responsible in diabetic embryopathy. Objective: In this study, we used nanoceria as an antioxidant for amelioration of diabetic embry...

Maternal diabetes has an established aetiological link with developmental abnormalities, and the prevalence of major congenital malformations in the offspring of affected women is approximately 4-8%, compared to the general population risk of about 3%. Hallucal polydactyly, particularly with an unusual proximal placement of the extra digit, has been reported as a distinctive anomaly in diabetic...
متن کاملRenal development in high-glucose ambience and diabetic embryopathy.
Maternal diabetes has an adverse influence on the intrauterine growth of the fetus, which is attributable to the exposure of the mammalian embryo to an abnormal metabolic environment. A sustained exposure of the fetus to such an environment (ie, elevated concentration of glucose), during the first 6 to 8 weeks of gestation in humans may result in diabetic embryopathy, which is characterized by ...
متن کاملOxidative Stress–Induced JNK1/2 Activation Triggers Proapoptotic Signaling and Apoptosis That Leads to Diabetic Embryopathy
Oxidative stress and apoptosis are implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic embryopathy. The proapoptotic c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinases (JNK)1/2 activation is associated with diabetic embryopathy. We sought to determine whether 1) hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress is responsible for the activation of JNK1/2 signaling, 2) JNK1 contributes to the teratogenicity of hyperglycemia, and 3) both...
