Vascular dysfunction induced in offspring by maternal dietary fat involves altered arterial polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis

, 2012
Nutrition during development affects risk of future cardiovascular disease. Relatively little is known about whether the amount and type of fat in the maternal diet affect vascular function in the offspring.

Maternal intake of fatty acids during pregnancy and allergies in the offspring [PDF]

, 2011
Fatty acids (FA) are known to have a number of immunological effects and, accordingly, may play a role in the development of allergic diseases. We investigated the effect of maternal intake of FA during pregnancy on the risk of allergic rhinitis, wheeze ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Responses of life-history traits of brackish- and freshwater populations of the water strider to NaCl Aquarius paludum (Hemiptera: Gerridae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2009
The water strider Aquarius paludum inhabits the surfaces of a wide variety of freshwater habitats both temporary and permanent. It can also live on the surface brackish-water around river mouths.

Light drinking in pregnancy, a risk for behavioural problems and cognitive deficits at 3 years of age? [PDF]

, 2009
Background The objective of this study was to determine whether there was an association between mothers’ light drinking during pregnancy and risk of behavioural problems, and cognitive deficits in their children at age 3 years.

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Prescription Benzodiazepine Use During Pregnancy and Risk of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in Offspring

International Journal of Population Data Science, 2020
Introduction Benzodiazepine (BZD) prescribing rates during pregnancy have risen over the last two decades. There is little research into the potential relationship between in utero exposure to BZD and offspring risk of attention deficit/hyperactivity ...
