The effect of pre- and peri-conceptional undernutrition on arterial function in adult female sheep are vascular bed dependent (2009)

Torrens, Christopher, Snelling, Tristram H., Chau, Ryan, Shanmuganathan, Meena, Cleal, Jane K., Poore, Kirsten R., ...

The nutritional environment during development and even prior to conception may contribute to cardiovascular risk. In mature adult female sheep, we investigated the effect of preconceptional and...

The effect of maternal undernutrition in early gestation on gestation length and fetal and postnatal growth in sheep (2007)

Cleal, Jane K., Poore, Kirsten R., Newman, James P., Noakes, David E., Hanson, Mark A., Green, Lucy R.

In utero undernutrition in humans may result in cardiovascular (CV), metabolic, and growth adaptations. In sheep, maternal nutrient restriction during pregnancy, without effects on fetal or birth...

Mismatched pre- and postnatal nutrition leads to cardiovascular dysfunction and altered renal function in adulthood (2007)

Cleal, Jane K., Poore, Kirsten R., Boullin, Julian P., Khan, Omar, Chau, Ryan, Hambidge, Oliver, ...

The early life environment has long-term implications for the risk of developing cardiovascular (CV) disease in adulthood. Fetal responses to changes in maternal nutrition may be of immediate benefit...

Nutritional challenges during development induce sex-specific changes in glucose homeostasis in the adult sheep (2007)

Poore, Kirsten R., Cleal, Jane K., Newman, James P., Boullin, Julian P., Noakes, David E., Hanson, Mark A., ...

The early-life environment has implications for risk of adult-onset diseases, such as glucose intolerance, insulin insensitivity, and obesity, effects that may occur with or without reduced birth...

Nutritional challenges during development induce sex-specific changes in glucose homeostasis in the adult sheep (2007)

Poore, Kirsten R., Cleal, Jane K., Newman, James P., Boullin, Julian P., Noakes, David E., Hanson, Mark A., ...

The role of the placenta in the developmental origins of health and disease: implications for practice (2006)

Lewis, Rohan M., Poore, Kirsten R., Godfrey, Keith M.

The placenta is actively involved in transporting nutrients to the fetus, it has both direct and indirect effects on fetal cardiovascular function and has endocrine influences on the mother and...

Developmental regulation of hepatic and renal gluconeogenic enzymes by thyroid hormones in fetal sheep during late gestation (2003)

Forhead, Alison J., Poore, Kirsten R., Mapstone, James, Fowden, Abigail L.

Tissue glucose-6-phosphatase (G6P) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) activities were investigated in sheep fetuses after experimental manipulation of thyroid hormone status. Increments in...

Ontogeny of pulmonary and renal angiotensin-converting enzyme in pigs (2001)

Forhead, Alison J., Gulati, Vivek, Poore, Kirsten R., Fowden, Abigail L.

The present study investigated the ontogeny of pulmonary and renal angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in foetal and postnatal pigs, and examined the effect of cortisol on tissue ACE in utero. Data...
