Exposure to maternal obesity during early-life can have adverse consequences for offspring growth and adiposity. We aimed to assess the relative contributions of exposure to maternal obesity, induced by a highly varied cafeteria diet, during pregnanc...

Exposure to maternal obesity during suckling outweighs in utero exposure in programming for post-weaning adiposity and insulin resistance in rats (2019)
Journal Article
George, G., Draycott, S. A., Muir, R., Clifford, B., Elmes, M. J., & Langley-Evans, S. C. (2019). Exposure to maternal obesity during suckling outweighs in utero exposure in programming for post-weaning adiposity and insulin resistance in rats.

Exposure to maternal obesity during early development programmes adverse metabolic health in rodent offspring. We assessed the relative contributions of obesity during pregnancy and suckling on metabolic health post-weaning. Wistar rat offspring expo...

Maternal dietary ratio of linoleic acid to alpha-linolenic acid during pregnancy has sexspecific effects on placental and fetal weights in the rat (2019)
Journal Article
Draycott, S. A., Liu, G., Daniel, Z. C., Elmes, M. J., Mulhausler, B. S., & Langley-Evans, S. C. (2019). Maternal dietary ratio of linoleic acid to alpha-linolenic acid during pregnancy has sexspecific effects on placental and fetal weights in the rat. Nutrition and Metabolism, 16(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12986-018-0330-7

Background: Increased consumption of linoleic acid (LA, omega-6) in Western diets coupled with the pro-inflammatory and adipogenic properties of its derivatives has led to suggestions that fetal exposure to this dietary pattern could be contributing...
