Abstract
⺠Oxidative stress induced by maternal diabetes is associated with heart malformations. ⺠Zn supplement restores the antioxidant system in the heart of embryos from diabetic mice. ⺠MT up-regulation protects hearts of embryos from Zn-supplemented diabetic mice. ⺠Zn supplement alters some trace elements in the embryonic heart of diabetic mice. ⺠Zn may be beneficial in prevention of diabetes-induced cardiac malformations in embryos.
