Impact of gestational low-protein intake on embryonic kidney microRNA expression and in nephron progenitor cells of the male fetus.
<h4>Background</h4>Here, we have demonstrated that gestational low-protein (LP) intake offspring present lower birth weight, reduced nephron numbers, renal salt excretion, arterial hypertension, and renal failure development compared to regular protein (NP) intake rats in adulthood. We e...
