Maternal obesity during lactation as a hypertensive cardiovascular risk factor in the offspring

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Maternal obesity is a major public health concern, with growing evidence supporting its role in the developmental programming of cardiometabolic disease. Although prenatal mechanisms have been investigated extensively, the contribution of lactation as a postnatal window of cardiovascular (CV) programming remains insufficiently understood ...

Women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus have preserved sensory nerve‐mediated dilatation in the cutaneous microvasculature

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have a greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease than healthy control (HC) women who had an uncomplicated pregnancy. Microvascular endothelial dysfunction, mediated by reduced nitric oxide (NO)‐dependent mechanisms, persists after GDM.

TMEM16A chloride channels in the female reproductive tract and their role in normal and dysfunctional pregnancy and labour

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle. An increase in TMEM16A expression in labour underpins a lengthening of the plateau and this provides time for the contraction to become larger and longer, important for timely successful labour.

Placental mitochondrial metabolic adaptation maintains cellular energy balance in pregnancy complicated by gestational hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).
