Exercise during pregnancy reduces the risk of Type-2 Diabetes in offspring — ScienceDaily
[ad_1] A new study has demonstrated that maternal exercise during pregnancy improves the metabolic health of offspring, even when the mother is obese or on a high-fat diet. Physical exercise by the mother induces the placenta to secrete the key protein SOD3, resulting in a lowered risk of diabetes for the offspring. The findings in…

Exercise during pregnancy reduces the risk of type-2 diabetes in offspring
[ad_1] Maternal exercise protects offspring from the detrimental effects on their glucose metabolism when the mother consumes a high-fat diet. Exercise-induced, placenta-derived SOD3 protein plays a fundamental role in improving the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), protein carbonylation, and histone modification.

Unravelling the mysteries around type-2 diabetes — ScienceDaily
[ad_1] For more than 30 years, scientists have been trying to unravel the mystery of how a key biological molecule self assembles into a rogue protein-like substance known as amyloid, which is thought to play a role in the development of type-2 diabetes — a disease that affects 300 million people worldwide. A team of…

Study shows strong links between gestational diabetes during pregnancy and type-1 and type-2 diabetes later in life
[ad_1] Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain A 23 year study being presented at the 23rd European Congress of Endocrinology (e-ECE 2021), on Monday 24 May 2021, has found that women who experience gestational diabetes (GDM) when they are pregnant, are more prone to developing type-1 and type-2 diabetes later in life. The long-term study suggests that…

Treatment for type-2 diabetic heart disease — ScienceDaily
[ad_1] University of Otago researchers have discovered one of the reasons why more than 50 per cent of people with type 2 diabetes die from heart disease. And perhaps more significantly, they have found how to treat it. Associate Professor Rajesh Katare, of the Department of Physiology, says it has been known that stem cells…
