Expression data from PBDE treated rats at PND22 and Week 13

ABSTRACT: Liver gene transcripts patterns were used to characterize toxicity from exposure to polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), flame retardant components. In this study, Wistar Han dams were exposed by gavage to the PBDE mixture (DE71) starting at gestation day 6 (GD 6) and continuing to weaning on postnatal day 21 (PND 21). Offspring from the dams began PBDE direct dosing on PND 12 and were dosed daily through PND 21. After weaning, they were dosed 5 days per week for another 13 weeks. Liver samples were collected at PND 22 and week 13 for liver gene expression analysis and interrogated with the Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array. PBDE treatment induced 1,066 liver gene transcript changes in females and 1,200 transcriptional changes in males at PND 22 (false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.01), but only 263 liver transcriptional changes at 13 weeks in male rats (FDR <0.05). No significant differences in dose response were found between male and female pups.

Project description:Maternal high-fat diet consumption predisposes to metabolic and liver dysfunction in F1 male and female at young adulthood. Purpose: We used RNA-seq to determine the liver transcriptome of male and female F1 of MO and control fed mothers. Methods: Female Wistar rat mothers ate control (C) or obesogenic (MO) diet from the time they were weaned through breeding at postnatal day (PND) 120, delivery and lactation. After weaning all male and female F1 ate control diet. At PND 110 liver and fat were collected to analyze metabolites, histology and liver differentially expressed genes. To identify the functional F1 liver changes due to MO, we evaluated the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between MO and C males and females with separate pairwise comparisons due to the marked differences between males and females. Genes were filtered based on ≥ 1.4 fold change (FC) and nominal P value <0.05 (Student´s t-test). Results: MOF1 males presented greater physiologic and histological NAFLD characteristics than MOF1 females. RNA-seq revealed 1,365 genes significantly changed in male MOF1 liver and only 70 genes in MOF1 female compared with controls. GO and KEGG analysis identified differentially expressed genes related to metabolic process. Male MOF1 liver showed the following altered pathways: insulin signaling (22 genes), phospholipase D signaling (14 genes), NAFLD (13 genes), and glycolysis/ gluconeogenesis (7 genes). In contrast, few genes were altered in these pathways in MOF1 females. Conclusions: These results improve understanding of the mechanism by which a maternal high fat diet affects their F1. In summary, MO programs sex-dependent F1 changes in insulin, glucose and lipid signaling pathways, leading to liver dysfunction and insulin resistance. Male adult MOF1 livers show global down-regulation of genes that are required for normal function of major liver metabolic pathways. This new knowledge is important for producing sex-specific interventions.
