Gestational palmitic acid suppresses embryonic GATA-binding protein 4 signaling and causes congenital heart disease
20 Feb 2023
Abstract excerpt
Dysregulated maternal fatty acid metabolism increases the risk of congenital heart disease (CHD) in offspring with an unknown mechanism, and the effect of folic acid fortification in preventing CHD is controversial. Using gas chromatography coupled to either a flame ionization detector or mass spectrometer (GC-FID/MS) analysis, we find that the palmitic acid (PA) concentration increases significantly in serum...
