This award funds a research study investigating the impact of the in utero cardiometabolic environment on cardiovascular health and arterial injury in young adults, using the HAPO Study cohort, with a focus on epigenetic mechanisms.
Description
The project involves investigation of the cardiometabolic in utero environment and its association with cardiovascular health and arterial injury in young-adult offspring. The study leverages the Hyperglycemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome (HAPO) Study cohort. The project aims to define associations of intrauterine cardiometabolic milieu with offspring CVH and subclinical CVD. It also examines epigenetic mechanisms mediating these associations. The award is funded by the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI).
