Background Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with adverse pregnancy
outcomes. It is known that GDM is associated with an altered placental function and changes …

Emerging evidences indicate that placenta plays a critical role in gestational diabetes
mellitus (GDM). DNA methylation could be associated with altered placental development …

Several recent reports have described associations between gestational diabetes (GDM)
and changes to the epigenomic landscape where the DNA samples were derived from …

Aims/Hypothesis We hypothesized that diabetes during pregnancy (DDP) alters genome-
wide DNA methylation in placenta resulting in differentially methylated loci of metabolically …

Being born small (SGA) or large for gestational age (LGA) is associated with adverse birth
outcomes and metabolic diseases in later life of the offspring. It is known that aberrations in …

Repeat pregnancies with different perinatal outcomes minimize underlying maternal genetic
diversity and provide unique opportunities to investigate nongenetic risk factors and …

The placenta undergoes many changes throughout gestation to support the evolving needs
of the foetus. There is also a growing appreciation that male and female foetuses develop …

The placenta, which plays a critical structural and functional role during pregnancy, is a key
link in the chain of events that lead to intrauterine programming of adult health. Placental …

Background: The placenta acts not only as a conduit of nutrient and waste exchange
between mother and developing fetus but also functions as a regulator of the intrauterine …

OBJECTIVE Maternal gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has been associated with
adverse outcomes in the offspring. Growing evidence suggests that the epigenome may play …
