Maternal Diet‐Induced Excess Adiposity in Mice Disrupts Mid‐Gestation Decidual Immune and Vascular Homeostasis Without Impairing Spiral Artery Remodeling

AIM: Maternal excess adiposity (i.e., overweight/obesity) is linked to impaired uteroplacental perfusion, compromised placental development, and increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Inflammation and immune dysregulation accompanying excess adiposity may disrupt leukocyte-mediated tissue remodeling and immunoregulation, contributing to placental dysfunction. However, the impacts of excess adiposity on populations of innate lymphoid …
