Maternal exposure to a Western-style diet causes differences in microbiota composition and gene expression in the intestine of suckling mouse pups

ABSTRACT: During the last few decades, the long-lasting consequences of nutritional programming during the early phase of life have become increasingly evident, but the effects of maternal nutrition on the developing intestine are currently still relatively underexplored. In this study, we investigated in mice the effects of a maternal Western-style (WS) high fat/cholesterol diet, given during the perinatal period, on gene expression and microbiota composition of two-week-old offspring. Microarray analysis revealed that a perinatal WS diet caused significant changes in gene expression in the small intestine and colon of the suckling offspring. A strong sexually dimorphic effect was observed in the affected genes. However, pathway analysis of the differentially expressed genes displayed that in both sexes metabolic and immune functions were strongly affected. Integration of the microbiota and gene expression data applying a multivariate correlation analyses revealed that Bacteroidaceae, Porphyromonadaceae and Lachnospiraceae were the bacterial families that most strongly correlated with gene expression in the colon and not with the bacterial families displaying the most pronounced change due to perinatal exposure to a WS diet. Amongst the genes demonstrating a strong correlation with one or more bacterial families were genes of key importance for intestinal development or functioning (i.e., Pitx2 and Ace2). In conclusion, our data demonstrate a strong programming effect of a maternal WS diet on the development of the intestine in the offspring.

Small intestine and colon were isolated from two-week-old pups of dams fed a low- or Western-style high fat/cholesterol diet and subjected to gene expression profiling.

Maternal Western Diet Programs Cardiometabolic Dysfunction and Hypothalamic Inflammation via Epigenetic Mechanisms Predominantly in the Male Offspring [miRNA-seq]

Project description:Maternal exposure during pregnancy is a strong determinant of offspring health outcomes. Such exposures induce changes in the offspring epigenome resulting in gene expression and functional changes. In this study, we investigated the effect of maternal Western hypercaloric diet (HCD) programming during the perinatal period and its effect on neuronal plasticity and cardiometabolic health in adult offspring. C57BL/6J dams were fed HCD for 1 month prior to mating with regular diet (RD) sires and kept on the same diet throughout pregnancy and lactation. At weaning, offspring were maintained on either HCD or RD for 3 months duration. Maternal programming resulted in male-specific hypertension and hyperglycemia, with both males and females showing increased sympathetic tone to the vasculature. Surprisingly, programmed male offspring fed on HCD exhibited lower glucose levels, less insulin resistance, and leptin levels compared to non-programmed HCD-fed male mice. Hypothalamic genes involved in glial and astrocytic differentiation were differentially methylated in programmed male offspring. Genes involved in inflammation and type 2 diabetes were targeted by differentially expressed miRNA in programmed male offspring. Methyl-seq data were supported by our findings of astrogliosis and microgliosis as well as increased microglial activation in programmed males in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN). Aligned with programming-induced protective effect in HCD male mice, we observed lower protein levels of hypothalamic TGFβ2, NF-κB2, NF-κBp65, Ser-pIRS1, and GLP1R compared to non-programmed HCD-fed male mice. In conclusion, our study shows that maternal HCD programs neuronal plasticity in the offspring and results in male-specific hypertension and hyperglycemia. On the other hand, we observed a compensatory role of programming potentially by priming metabolic pathways to handle excess nutrients in a more efficient way.

Different Behavioral Responses in Male and Female Mice Following a Perinatal Low Protein Diet Associates With Sex-Specific Regulation of Immediate Early Genes and Neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the Brain

Project description:We studied maternal low protein diet (LPD) during pregnancy/lactation in mice. This affected behavioral responses to acute stress in the offspring. We therefore investigated the transcriptome-wide changes following 15 min forced swim, to identify possible immediate early genes affected by perinatal LPD.

Multi-omics data integration reveals sex-dependent hippocampal programming by maternal high-fat diet during lactation in adult mouse offspring

Project description:Early-life exposure to high-fat diet (HF) can program metabolic and cognitive alterations in adult offspring. Although the hippocampus plays a crucial role in memory and metabolic homeostasis, few studies reported the impact of maternal HF on this structure. We assessed the effects of maternal HF during lactation on physiological, metabolic and cognitive parameters in young adult offspring mice. To identify early-programming mechanisms in hippocampus, we developed a multi-omics strategy in male and female offspring. Maternal HF induced a transient increased body weight at weaning, a mild glucose intolerance only in 3-month-old male mice with no change in plasma metabolic parameters in adult male and female offspring. Behavioral alterations revealed by Barnes maze test were observed both in 6-month-old male and female mice. Multi-omics strategy unveiled sex-specific transcriptomic and proteomic modifications in the hippocampus of adult offspring. These studies, that were confirmed by regulon analysis, showing that, although genes whose expression was modified by maternal HF were different between sexes, the main pathways affected were similar with mitochondria and synapses as main hippocampal targets of maternal HF. The effects of maternal HF reported here may help to better characterize sex-dependent molecular pathways involved in cognitive disorders and neurodegenerative diseases.

Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neuron translatome signatures underlying obesogenic gestational malprogramming

Project description:Maternal unbalanced nutritional habits during embryo development and perinatal stages perturb hypothalamic neuronal programming of the offspring, thus increasing “diabesity” risk. Here we report that exposure to high-fat diet during gestation and lactation did not interfere with progeny’s hypothalamic POMC neuron specification, but significantly impaired their spatial distribution and axonal extension to target areas. Importantly, we established POMC neuron-specific translatome signatures accounting for neuronal aberrant development and axonal growth. These anatomical and molecular alterations caused metabolic dysfunction in early-life and adulthood. Our study provides fundamental insights on the molecular mechanisms underlying POMC neuron malprogramming in obesogenic contexts.

Transcriptome profiling of adult cardiac tissue of control versus overfed female sheep prenatally treated with bisphenol A

Project description:Developmental programming is the concept that environmental factors during fetal growth can alter development, metabolism and physiology of an organism, thus diseases can be programmed by intrauterine influences. The fetal origin of health and disease hypothesis has received strong support from experimental studies in animals including livestock species. Using a sheep model, it has been shown that developmental changes of ewe offspring may be susceptible to maternal pregnancy bisphenol A (BPA) treatment. For example, prenatally BPA treated female offspring tended to have reduced birth weight. In this study we sought to identify gene expression differences in ewe offspring as a result of maternal pregnancy BPA treatment on a control or high-caloried diet. Samples of heart tissues were collected during the second breeding season, allowing us to examine gene expression changes in ewes prenatally treated with BPA and maturing under the different diets.

Effect of perinatal obesity on premature kidney aging signaling

Project description:Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), a global health burden, is strongly associated with age-related renal function decline, hypertension and diabetes, frequent consequences of obesity. Despite extensive studies the mechanisms determining susceptibility to CKD remain elusive. Clinical evidence together with prior studies from our group showed that perinatal metabolic disorders after maternal obesity adversely affect kidney structure and function throughout life. Since obesity and aging processes converge in similar pathways we tested if perinatal obesity induced by High-Fat Diet (HFD)-fed female mice sensitizes aging-associated mechanism in kidneys of newborn mice. Tissue from the kidney cortex and the kidney medulla was collected from offspring of control or HFD-fed mice.
