- Beauchamp 2015 Biosci Rep + (Intrauterine growth restriction is associa … Intrauterine growth restriction is associated with an increased risk of developing obesity, insulin resistance, and cardiovascular disease. However its effect on energetics in heart remains unknown. In this study, we examined respiration in cardiac muscle and liver from adult mice that were undernourished ''in utero''. We report that ''in utero'' undernutrition is associated with impaired cardiac muscle energetics, including decreased fatty acid oxidative capacity, decreased maximum oxidative phosphorylation rate, and decreased proton leak respiration. No differences in oxidative characteristics were detected in liver. We also measured plasma acylcarnitine levels and found that short-chain acylcarnitines are increased with ''in utero'' undernutrition. Results reveal the negative impact of suboptimal maternal nutrition on adult offspring cardiac energy metabolism, which may have lifelong implications for cardiovascular function and disease risk. cardiovascular function and disease risk.)
