16 Abstract The rising prevalence in noncommunicable diseases worldwide calls for the effort to determine their underlying causes. Common metabolic disorders in particular overwhelm the healthcare systems and are a one of the leading causes of poor quality of life of patients. Metabolic syndrome is represented by concurrence of several conditions - dyslipidaemia, obesity, hypertension or impaired glucose tolerance - altered metabolic phenotypes related to genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that early-life exposure to certain environmental stimuli is particularly capable of changing the mammalian phenotypes. Nutrition, as one of the major factors influencing health, is naturally a focus of research, which studies the link between parental diets and phenotypic alterations in offspring. The developmental origins of health and disease were historically more focused on maternal undernutrition, it is, however, more important to focus on surplus of macronutrients considering the westernization of modern diets. We propose the relevancy of not only the amount of macronutrients in maternal diet, but also their sources, as they may increase disease risk in offspring. Here we report, that sucrose as an alternative carbohydrate in maternal diet, has a marked impact on metabolism of the offspring...
