"Metabolic Rewiring: Mapping Pregnancy's Impact on Organ Function in Monkeys"

Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have conducted a study on crab-eating macaques to map the metabolic changes that occur during pregnancy, identifying 91 consistent changes across 23 different tissues. These changes include shifts in metabolic coupling between organs and the development of new metabolic exchanges, shedding light on potential links to pregnancy complications such as pre-eclampsia and gestational diabetes. The study's findings could provide valuable insights into understanding and addressing pregnancy-related health issues.
