Maternal Serum Metabolomics in Mid-Pregnancy Identifies Lipid Pathways as a Key Link to Offspring Obesity in Early Childhood

Abstract excerpt

Maternal metabolism during pregnancy shapes offspring health via in utero programming. In the Healthy Start study, we identified five subgroups of pregnant women based on conventional metabolic biomarkers: Reference (n = 360); High HDL-C (n = 289); Dyslipidemic–High TG (n = 149); Dyslipidemic–High FFA (n = 180); Insulin Resistant (IR)–Hyperglycemic (n = 87). These subgroups not only captured metabolic...
