Transcription profiling of rat heart, kidney and placenta from fetuses obtained from dams with diet-induced intra-uterine growth restriction vs. normal

ABSTRACT: Pregnant rats were randomly divided into two groups. Dams were then housed individually and fed throughout gestation a 22 % protein diet, representing the control group (C, n=5), or an 9% isocaloric protein diet, representing the low-protein (LP, n=6). Both diets were isocaloric, because the protein deficiency in the LP diet was compensated by the addition of carbohydrates. Feeding of LP diet began on the day of conception and continuing throughout pregnancy. The low-protien diet resulted in Intra-Uterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) of the fetuses.
