Unraveling the multi-generational syndrome of diabetic embryopathy: from cell signaling to clinical care
Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series Successful fetal and maternal outcomes in the context of maternal pregestational diabetes (type 1 or type 2) largely depend on how well glycemic control is maintained, especially prior to conception and in the first trimester of pregnancy. Stringent metabolic control and monitoring, and nutritional management via supplements and antioxidants significantly reduce the risk for or can eliminate poor outcomes due to hyperglycemia on both the maternal and fetal side. Experiments in animal models have shown that hyperglycemia induces oxidative stress within the developing cells and tissues ...

Inflammation, dysbiosis and chronic disease
Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series Dysregulation of the immune system and host-microbiota interaction has been associated with the development of a variety of inflammatory as well as metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes. Recent studies in Dr. Flavell's laboratory have elucidated the important function of inflammasomes as steady-state sensors and regulators of the gut microbiota. Mice with a disrupted inflammasome pathway have been shown to develop a colitogenic microbial community, which results in exacerbation of chemical-induced colitis and diet-induced steatohepatitis, obesity and type 2 diabetes. These d...

Options for Consideration of Chronic Disease Endpoints for Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs)- Day 2
To evaluate key issues involved in using chronic disease endpoints for setting dietary reference intakes and to describe the advantages and disadvantages of the identified options to suggest options for addressing them. The upcoming workshop is anticipated to be the first step in a larger in-depth process for addressing the challenges involved in using chronic disease endpoints in the setting of DRI values. As warranted, subsequent activities will address additional issues that arise from the proposed workshop or that have been identified in earlier activities but were not covered in the currently proposed workshop.

Expert Panel: Identifying Research Needs for Assessing Safe Use of High Intakes of Folic Acid (Day 2)
The National Toxicology Program (NTP) and Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) are convening an expert panel to identify research needs related to the safe use of high intakes of folic acid based on consideration of the state of the science. The expert panel meeting will bring together experts from multiple disciplines including, but not limited to, epidemiology, nutrition, medicine, and toxicology. In preparation for this evaluation, screening of the literature was undertaken to identify potential adverse health effects for which further research might be warranted. A literature review document is being prepared on four ...
