RESVERATROL INTAKE DURING PREGNANCY AND LACTATION RE-PROGRAMS ADIPOSITY AND AMELIORATES LEPTIN RESISTANCE IN MALE PROGENY INDUCED BY MATERNAL HIGH-FAT/HIGH SUCROSE PLUS POSTNATAL HIGH-FAT/HIGH SUCROSE DIETS VIA FAT METABOLISM REGULATION

Resveratrol intake during pregnancy and lactation re-programs adiposity and ameliorates leptin resistance in male progeny induced by maternal high-fat/high sucrose plus postnatal high-fat/high sucrose diets via fat metabolism regulation

Abstract Background Maternal obesity is an emerging problem in the modern world.Growing evidence suggests that intrauterine high-fat (HF) exposure may predispose progeny to subsequent metabolic challenges.Progeny born to mothers who ate an HF diet also tends to eat an HF diet when growing and aggravate metabolic issues.Thus, the generational transm

Evolutionary genomics of LysM genes in land plants

Abstract Background The ubiquitous LysM motif recognizes peptidoglycan, chitooligosaccharides (chitin) and, presumably, other structurally-related oligosaccharides.LysM-containing proteins were first shown to be involved in bacterial cell wall degradation and, more recently, were implicated in perceiving chitin (one of the established pathogen-asso
