Official title
The Effect of Physical Activity on in Vivo and in Vitro Mitochondrial Capacity in Pregnant Women
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This Pilot \& Feasibility study will test the hypothesis that pregnant women who are more active will have better functioning mitochondria in vivo (higher ATPmax, via 31P-MRS), which will be positively related to maternal and infant mitochondrial function in vitro (higher oxygen consumption rates in primary myotubes and umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells, respectively). Twenty pregnant women (10 active and 10 sedentary) will be recruited in the first trimester of pregnancy determined from self-reported physical activity and assessment by activity monitors. Placental biospecimens will be collected during delivery for other molecular mitochondrial analyses.
