Abstract
Maternal nutrition and metabolic health status during pregnancy are critical factors that shape the life-long health trajectory of offspring. Altered nutrition during specific times of development in utero can lead to functional changes in tissues such as the pancreatic β-cells, predisposing those tissues to metabolic diseases and Type 2 diabetes that manifest later in life. This chapter will focus on the role of pregnancy complications with altered nutrition during gestation in the maladaptive programming of β-cell mass and function in the offspring.
