Abstract

We investigated the effects of a low protein (LP) maternal diet during lactation on type I and III tropocollagen synthesis in infant mouse skin. The LP diet decreased the levels of type I and III tropocollagen proteins and COL1A1 and COL3A1 mRNA. Thus, the protein composition of the maternal perinatal diet may influence the skin health of offspring.
