Abstract:Maternal consumption of high-fat diet (HFD) during pregnancy and lactation is closely related to liver lipid accumulation, insulin resistance development, and increased serum cytokines in offspring and into adulthood. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated in cholesterol biosynthesis and fatty acid metabolism. In the present study we evaluated the modulation of hepatic fatty acid synthesis (de novo), as well as modulation of fatty acid oxidation and miR-122 and miR-370 expression in recently weaned offspring … Show more
