Physical Activity in Pregnancy (PAP)
Effect of Physical Activity in Pregnancy on Low Grade Inflammation: a Pilot Study

详细说明
Pregnancy is a natural state of low grade inflammation in the mother and the feto-placental unit. The severity of this inflammation increases with higher pregravid Body Mass Index (BMI). This is reflected by an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines in the maternal circulation and in the placenta. It has been proposed that the pro-inflammatory maternal and fetal environment plays a role in mediating pregnancy outcomes.
In non-pregnant individuals regular physical activity is associated with a reduced inflammatory state. The overall objective of the study is to investigate the interaction of maternal physical activity and pregnancy induced low-grade inflammation in the mother and feto-placental unit, and to assess th resulting effects on prenatal and postnatal development.
Specific research objective will be to study effects of maternal physical activity on:
- low grade Inflammation in the mother an feto-placental unit;
- maternal and fetal lipid profiles, including High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) proteome;
- fetal growth and infant body composition;
- transcriptomic and epigenetic profile in the placenta;
- biomarkers of nutritive status;
- psychological assessment: cardiac awareness; assessment of arterial stiffness; stress-coping questionaire
