Influence of caffeine used at various temperature ranges on the concentrations of glucose and total serum protein as well as body weight gain in pregnant rats

Abstract: Caffeine (120 mg/kg) was administered intragastrically to pregnant rats daily on gestational days 8-21. An increase in serum concentration of glucose and total protein was found in animals, which were given caffeine. The protein content proved to be highly significant in the experimental group of animals. The control group showed a negative interdependence between body weight gain and glucose concentration. No correlation was found between body weight gain and total protein concentration, yet the glucose conce… Show more

“…This induces vasoconstriction, resulting in the build-up of a significant quantity of lipids in the inner lining of blood arteries. This exacerbates the harm to vascular endothelial cells and leads to spasms in the arteries of pregnant women [22]. The lipid indices TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, and WHtR were all significantly different in our study cohorts.…”

“…This condition can negatively affect placental function, causing damage and apoptosis of placental vascular cells, ultimately leading to the development of preeclampsia [21]. Pregnant women typically undergo a sequence of adjustments in lipid metabolism during pregnancy [22]. The primary pathogenic alteration observed in preeclampsia is arterial spasm [23].…”
