To understand the role of hormonal changes in the lower food ingestion and body weight in
protein-restricted lactating rats as well as the higher serum T 3, higher deiodination, iodide …

Maternal hypoprolactinemia at the end of lactation (a precocious weaning model) increases
milk leptin transfer and results in overweight, leptin resistance, and secondary …

Malnutrition during lactation reduces milk production and changes pup's leptin serum levels.
To test prolactin role in this nutritional state, we evaluated whether prolactin suppression …

Recently, we showed that both maternal malnutrition during lactation and leptin treatment
during the neonatal period program thyroid function. In this study we evaluate whether …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of hyperleptinemia during the first ten days
of life on thyroid function in adulthood. After birth, pups were separated into two groups: L8 …

OBJECTIVE: Recent studies have shown that leptin receptor is expressed in human and rat
pituitary glands. The expression of leptin receptor in rats whose dams were malnourished …

We had shown that adult animals, whose mothers were submitted to protein or energy
restriction during lactation, differ from controls in their body weight and thyroid function. The …

Malnutrition during lactation is associated with hypoprolactinemia and failure in milk
production. Adult rats whose mothers were malnourished presented higher body weight and …

Pups whose mothers were leptin-treated during the last 3 days of lactation have thyroid
dysfunction at adulthood. However, there was no report about leptin treatment in the first …

Maternal malnutrition during lactation reduces prolactin (PRL) and milk production, alters
milk composition, and programs the body weight of the offspring. Our study aimed to …
