Association between maternal cardiometabolic risk factors and oral health of in...

Maternal health conditions during pregnancy influence infant health1-3. Cardiometabolic risk factors (CRFs), such as obesity, hypertension, and gestational diabetes, increase maternal and neonatal complications due to chronic inflammation, which disrupts immune and endocrine adaptation4,5. While the effects of CRFs on infant development are well studied, their impact on oral health remains unclear. Therefore, t...

SGLT2 Inhibitors: Novel approach to modulate appetite hormones and cardiomyocyt...

Emerging as a class of oral antidiabetic drugs, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), used in patients with type 2 diabetes, offer promising results in weight loss, decreasing cardiometabolic biomarkers, thus improving overall cardiac function. The aim of this study is to assess whether SGLT2i can impact food and water consumption, hormone regulating appetite mechanisms, and morphologic parameters...

The cardiometabolic impact of rebaudioside a exposure during the reproductive s...

Since foods rich in refined sugars promote obesity, the use of non-caloric sweeteners has gained popularity, and their consumption by pregnant women has increased. Stevia (a non-caloric sweetener) consumption was considered safe for humans by the European Food Safety Authority in a dose of up to 4 mg/kg body weight/day. However, the World Health Organization recommended in 2023 the restraint of these sweeteners...

Made in the Womb: Maternal Programming of Offspring Cardiovascular Function by ...

Obesity incidence has been increasing at an alarming rate, especially in women of reproductive age. It is estimated that 50% of pregnancies occur in overweight or obese women. It has been described that maternal obesity (MO) predisposes the offspring to an increased risk of developing many chronic diseases in an early stage of life, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). CVD is th...

Fetoplacental endothelial dysfunction in gestational diabetes mellitus and mate...

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and maternal obesity (MO) increase the risk of adverse fetal outcomes, and the incidence of cardiovascular disease later in life. Extensive research has been conducted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms by which GDM and MO program the offspring to disease. This review focuses on the role of fetoplacental endothelial dysfunction in programming the offspring for cardiovascu...

Potential pathogenic and opportunistic oral bacteria in early life: the role of...

In early life, maternal factors are of the utmost relevance for oral microbiome acquisition and maturation. Therefore, our study explored the impact of maternal factors, such as saliva and breastmilk colonization, cardiovascular risk factors (CRF), type of delivery, oral health, and caregiving habits on the prevalence of potential pathogenic and opportunistic oral bacteria in early life. A total of 26 healthy m...

Vertical transmission and antifungal susceptibility profile of yeast isolates f...

Yeast acquisition begins at birth; however, the contribution of the mother on yeast trans mission to the offspring and associated resistance is yet to be clarified. The aim of this study was to explore the vertical transmission of yeasts and their antifungal susceptibility profile in early life. Oral, fecal, and breastmilk samples were collected from 73 mother–child pairs four to twelve weeks after delivery and...

Exercise training impacts skeletal muscle remodelling induced by metabolic synd...

Metabolic syndrome (MetS), characterized by a set of conditions that include obesity, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Exercise training (EX) has been reported to improve MetS management, although the underlying metabolic adaptations that drive its benefits remain poorly understood. This work aims to characterize the molecular changes induced by EX in skeletal mu...

Mining the Biomarker Potential of the Urine Peptidome: From Amino Acids Propert...

Native biofluid peptides offer important information about diseases, holding promise as biomarkers. Particularly, the non-invasive nature of urine sampling, and its high peptide concentration, make urine peptidomics a useful strategy to study the pathogenesis of renal conditions. Moreover, the high number of detectable peptides as well as their specificity set the ground for the expansion of urine peptidomics t...
