Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • Maternal obesity changes oocyte composition altering lipid content and mitochondrial function. • Maternal obesity-induced changes impact on embryo development, programming disease risk in offspring. • Paternal obesity at conception impairs the metabolic and reproductive health of the offspring through two generations. • Paternal obesity alters epigenetic marks in sperm implicating these changes in the transmission of paternal health cues to the next generation. |
