Maternal and fetal pregnancy outcome in a rat model of diabetic pregnancy.
Abnormal cardiomyocyte apoptosis participated in ventricular wall thinness.
The expression of CITED2 decreased in HG-induced apoptosis in cardiomyocytes in vitro and in vivo.
Over-expression of CITED2 suppressed cardiomyocytes apoptosis induced by high glucose.
CITED2 mutation partly inhibited the capacity of CITED2 to suppress apoptosis induced by HG in cardiomyocytes.
