Maternal nutritional programming shapes the cerebral landscape

Trends Endocrinol Metab. 2023 Nov 8:S1043-2760(23)00221-7. doi: 10.1016/j.tem.2023.10.008. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe escalating prevalence of maternal obesity raises concerns about its influence on offspring health. Exposure to obesogenic environments during early development leads to persistent alterations in brain function contributing to neurological disorders. Nutritional programming emerges as a promising avenue to counteract the deleterious effects of maternal obesity on offspring neurodevelopment.PMID:37949733 | DOI:10.1016/j.tem.2023.10.008
