1/ 💡We are excited to share our latest paper, continuing our exploration of how maternal obesity programs offspring health via #macrophages - this time using #Drosophila as a model: shorturl.at/28tFo

A study in obese mice found that #MaternalObesity increases offspring’s risk of #FattyLiverDisease by reprogramming embryonic #LiverCells and altering #metabolism
#Obesity #TransgenerationalEffects #MetabolicDisorders
An elevated paternal #BMI was associated with increased odds of rapid BMI growth trajectories among offspring, especially in combination with #MaternalObesity.

⚡️Shorter telomeres link to aging diseases like heart disease, but mitochondrially-targeted therapeutics (BGP-15, MitoQ, SS-31, metformin) can restore telomere elongation, supporting healthy aging and longevity.
