Parental nutrition can impact the health of future generations, programming offspring for development diseases. The developing germ cells could be damaged by maternal or paternal environment. in and their function affected nutritional adversity therefore, harm subsequent generations. intake high-fat diets has been shown to affect reproductive male offspring, leading imbalance hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, testicular oxidative stress, low testosterone production, changes sperm count,...
Nutrigenomics is an emerging field in obesity since epigenetic markers can be modified by environmental factors including diet. Considering juçara composition—rich anthocyanins, monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) and fibers—it has the potential for modulation. We evaluated supplementation modulating serum profile monocytes of adult obese humans. It was a randomized double-blind, controlled trial with 27 (Body mass index between 30.0 39.9 kg/m2) participants both genders aged from 31 to 59...
Background & aimsThe brown adipose tissue (BAT) regulates energy expenditure via thermogenesis by uncoupling protein 1 (UPC-1). We investigated the effect of maternal diet enriched with trans-fatty acids (TFAs) in combination or not jussara fruit supplementation on 21 day old offspring. Specifically, we looked at proinflammatory state and expression UCP-1 offsprings' BAT.MethodsWe divided dams into four groups during pregnancy lactation: control (C), C supplemented 0.5% rich anthocyanins...
