Transgelin induces dysfunction of fetal endothelial colony-forming cells from gestational diabetic pregnancies
27 Jun 2018
Abstract excerpt
Fetal exposure to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) predisposes children to future health complications including hypertension and cardiovascular disease. A key mechanism by which these complications occur is through the functional impairment of vascular progenitor cells, including endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs). Previously, we showed that fetal ECFCs exposed to GDM have decreased vasculogenic...
