Gestational Diabetes Induces Pancreatic Beta-Cells Apoptosis in Adult Rat Offspring

Several studies indicated that pancreatic ß-cell death occurs in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. This experimental study was designed to determine the effect of gestational diabetes on the ß-cells in 16-week-old rat offspring. By this aim, adult Wistar rats aged 10-12 weeks were randomly allocated...
