The impact of prenatal circadian rhythm disruption on pregnancy outcomes and long-term metabolic health of mice progeny.

Abstract excerpt

Animal studies demonstrate that circadian rhythm disruption during pregnancy can be deleterious to reproductive capacity and the long-term health of the progeny. Our previous studies in rats have shown that exposure of pregnant dams to an environment that significantly disrupts maternal circadian rhythms programs increased adiposity and poor glucose metabolism in offspring. In this study, we used mice with a...
