Fetal metabolic programing increases the susceptibility of cardiovascular diseases in the offspring due to maternal high-fat-diet during diabetic pregnancy

ABSTRACT: Increasing trends of obesity in childbearing women with a concurrent gestational diabetes are often associated with adverse fetal metabolic cues. Not only the carbohydrates but also fats are considered to contribute additional dietary fuels to the fetal hearts. To examine the hitherto unknown epigenetic mechanisms on the offspring’s cardiometabolic health due to maternal high-fat (HF) diet (40% kcal) or streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic pregnancy, or both, we carried out an epigenetic characterization of neonatal heart tissue using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) sequening and a previously validated rat model. Chromatin landscape of offspring’s heart tissue revealed differential peaks distribution on various promoter regions mapped to the rat genome due to histone (H3) modifications by acetylation (H3Ac) or trimethylations of lysine 4 and 27 (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3, respectively). Ongoing evaluations include gene ontology and disease ontology analyses. Together, it is expected that the findings will show that maternal HF-diet with or without gestational diabetes changes the cardiac histone signature in rat offspring, potentially leading to development of novel disease prevention strategies.

Skeletal muscle Nr4a1 hypomethylation and gene induction reduce insulin sensitivity in sedentary maternal high-fat offspring

Project description:Maternal high-fat consumption has negative effects on the offspring’s obesity/diabetes susceptibility and we hypothesize that epigenetic modifications in the skeletal muscle are partly responsible for this phenotype. To detect genes affected by maternal nutrition, offspring of low-fat (LF) and high-fat (HF) diet fed dams (C57BL/6 mice) received LF diet upon weaning and were sacrificed at an age of 6 or 25 weeks. M. quadriceps gene expression was investigated by microarray analysis revealing upregulation of the nuclear receptor Nr4a1 by maternal HF feeding. This was accompanied by promoter hypomethylation of CpG‑1408 which correlated with higher Nr4a1 gene expression at both ages. Offspring voluntary exercise training normalized Nr4a1 methylation/expression and ameliorated the negative effects of maternal HF feeding on insulin sensitivity. Overall, Nr4a1 expression correlated with higher insulin levels during oral glucose tolerance test and could, therefore, be involved in the programming offspring’s diabetes susceptibility.

MicroRNAs in adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles in maternal and cord blood are related to neonatal adiposity

Project description:Maternal body size, nutrition, and hyperglycemia contribute to neonatal body size and composition. There is little information on maternal-fetal transmission of messages which influence fetal growth. We analyzed adipocyte-derived small extracellular vesicular (ADsEV) microRNAs in maternal and cord blood to explore their adipogenic potential. Differential expression (DE) of ADsEV miRNAs in adipose vs. lean neonates was studied before and after adjustment for maternal gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), adiposity, and vitamin B12-folate status.

Epigenome-wide and Transcriptome-wide Analyses Reveal Gestational Diabetes is Associated with Alterations in the Human Leukocyte Antigen Complex [methylation]

Project description:Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects approximately 18% of pregnancies in the United States and increases the risk of adverse health outcomes in the offspring. These adult disease propensities may be set by anatomical and molecular alterations in the placenta associated with GDM. To assess the mechanistic aspects of fetal programming, we measured genome-wide methylation (Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchips) and expression (Affymetrix Transcriptome Microarrays) in placental tissue of 41 GDM cases and 41 matched pregnancies without maternal complications from the Harvard Epigenetic Birth Cohort. Specific transcriptional and epigenetic perturbations associated with GDM status included alterations in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region, which were validated in an independent cohort, the Rhode Island Child Health Study. Gene ontology enrichment among gene regulation influenced by GDM revealed an over-representation of immune response pathways among differential expression, reflecting these coordinated changes in the MHC region. Our study represents the largest investigation of transcriptomic and methylomic differences associated with GDM, providing comprehensive insight into the molecular basis of GDM induced fetal (re)programming. Bisulphite converted DNA extracted from the placentas (maternal-side) of 41 clinically-confirmed cases of GDM and 41 pregnancies without maternal complications were hybridised to the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchips

Gestational chronodisruption throughout pregnancy impairs adipose tissue physiology in the offspring

Project description:Compelling evidence supports that gestational chronodisruption induces major changes in maternal circadian rhythms, fetal development and that these changes impact adult life at many physiological levels. Using a rat model of chronic photoperiod shifting throughout gestation (CPS), we investigated the detrimental effects of gestational CPS on glucose homeostasis, adipose tissue physiology and metabolism in the adult male offspring. At proteomic level, in CPS adipose tissue, 275 proteins displayed differential expression, compared with LD animals fed with a standard diet. Interestingly, CPS offspring and LD fed with HFD showed 20 proteins in common (2 upregulated 18 downregulated). Based on these common proteins, the IPA analysis found that 2 functional pathways were significantly altered; the network 1 (AKT/ERK) and the network 2 (TNF/IL4).

Maternal High Fat Diet and Diabetes Disrupts Transcriptomic Pathways that Regulate Cardiac Metabolism and Cell Fate in Newborn Rat Hearts

Project description:Children born to diabetic and obese or overweight mothers have a higher risk of heart disease at birth and later in life. Our previous work using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing revealed that late-gestation diabetes in combination with maternal high fat diet causes a distinct fuel-mediated epigenetic reprogramming of cardiac tissue during fetal cardiogenesis. We used gene expression profiling to investigate the overall transcriptional signature of newborn rat offspring exposed to the combination of maternal diabetes and maternal high fat diet.

Gestational diabetes mellitus alters placental structure, efficiency, and plasticity

Project description:The hemochorial placenta provides a critical barrier at the maternal-fetal interface to modulate maternal immune tolerance and enable gas and nutrient exchange between mother and conceptus. Pregnancy outcomes are adversely affected by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM); however, the effects of GDM on placental formation, and subsequently fetal development, are not fully understood. In this report, streptozotocin was used to induce hyperglycemia in pregnant rats for the purpose of investigating the impact of GDM on placental formation and fetal development. GDM caused placentomegaly and placenta malformation, decreasing placental efficiency and fetal size. Elevated glucose disrupted rat trophoblast stem (TS) cell differentiation in vitro. Evidence of altered trophoblast differentiation was also observed in vivo, as hyperglycemia affected the junctional zone transcriptome and interfered with intrauterine trophoblast invasion and uterine spiral artery remodeling. When exposed to hypoxia, rats with GDM showed decreased proliferation and ectoplacental cone development on gestation day (gd) 9.5 and complete pregnancy loss by gd 13.5. Furthermore, elevated glucose concentrations inhibited TS cell responses to hypoxia in vitro. Overall, these results indicate that alterations in placental development, efficiency, and plasticity could contribute to the suboptimal fetal outcomes in offspring from pregnancies complicated by GDM.

Exposure to lipopolysaccharide induces sexually dimorphic placental adaptation by modifying placental efficiency, morphogenesis, and gene expression

Project description:Sexual dimorphism in placental physiology during development affects the functionality of placental adaptation during adverse pregnancy, affecting fetal growth, development, and eventually fetal programming, which have long-term effects on the offspring’s adult life. However, studies focusing on the phenomenon and relationship between sex-specific placental adaptation and consequent altered fetal development are still elusive. Here, we established a prenatal maternal stress model by administering lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to pregnant ICR mice at the mid-gestational stage. To verify the appropriateness of the animal model to study sex differences in the sub-optimal uterus milieu, pregnancy complications were examined. To elucidate global transcriptomic changes occurring in the placenta, total RNA sequencing was performed in female and male placentas. LPS exposure at the mid-gestational stage induced placental inflammation in both sexes. In utero inflammatory conditions resulted in intrauterine fetal growth restriction and impaired placental development in a sex-specific manner depending on the dose of LPS. Sex-biased placental pathology was observed in the junctional zone and the labyrinth layer. Placental transcriptome analysis revealed widespread disparity in protein-coding and long non-coding genes between female and male placentas, presenting the relationship between morphology and function in a sex-specific IUGR model.
