Gestational palmitic acid suppresses embryonic GATA-binding protein 4 signaling and causes congenital heart disease

ABSTRACT: Dysregulated maternal fatty acid metabolism increases the risk of congenital heart disease (CHD) in offspring with an unknown mechanism, and the effect of folic acid fortification in preventing CHD is controversial. Using gas chromatography coupled to either a flame ionization detector or mass spectrometer (GC-FID/MS) analysis, we find that the palmitic acid (PA) concentration increases significantly in serum samples of pregnant women bearing children with CHD. Feeding pregnant mice with PA increased CHD risk in offspring and cannot be rescued by folic acid supplementation. We further find that PA promotes methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MARS) expression and protein lysine homocysteinylation (K-Hcy) of GATA4 and results in GATA4 inhibition and abnormal heart development. Targeting K-Hcy modification by either genetic ablation of Mars or using N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) decreases CHD onset in high-PA-diet-fed mice. In summary, our work links maternal malnutrition and MARS/K-Hcy with the onset of CHD and provides a potential strategy in preventing CHD by targeting K-Hcy other than folic acid supplementation.

Excess folic acid supplementation increases adiposity and impacts insulin sensitivity in female mice during pregnancy and has sex-specific effects on fetal offspring

Project description:We determined the effects of excess folic acid supplementation (5x recommendation) on maternal and fetal offspring metabolic health. Using a mouse (female C57BL/6J) model of gestational dibetes (GDM; 45% kcal fat diet) and control mice (10% kcal diet) we show that folic acid supplementation increased weight gain and fat mass in both GDM and control mice but improved insulin sensitivity in GDM mice and worsened insulin sensitivity in control mice. We found no unmetabolized folic acid in liver from supplemented mice suggesting the metabolic effects of folic acid supplementation may not be due to unmetabolized folic acid. Male fetal (gestational day 18.5) offspring from folic acid supplemented dams (GDM and control) had greater beta cell mass and density than those from unsupplemented dams; this was not observed in female offspring. Differential sex-specific hepatic gene expression profiles were observed in the offspring from supplemented dams but this differed between GDM and controls. Our findings suggest that folic acid supplementation affects insulin sensitivity in female mice, but is dependent on their metabolic phenotype, and has sex-specific effects on offspring pancreas and liver.

High-dose maternal folic acid supplementation before conception impairs reversal learning in offspring mice

Project description:Folic acid supplements prior to and during gestation are recommended and necessary to prevent neural tube defects in developing embryos. But there are also studies suggesting possible adverse effects of high-dose folic acid supplementation. Here, we address whether maternal dietary folic acid supplementation at 40 mg/kg chow (FD), restricted to a period prior to conception, affects gene expression in the offspring generation.

Maternal antibiotic exposure enhances neonatal ILC2 responses and aggravates allergic airway inflammation in adults [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Disruption of circadian rhythm during pregnancy produced adverse health outcomes in offspring. However, the role of maternal circadian rhythms in infants’ immunity and their susceptibility to inflammation remains poorly understood. Here we reported that disruption of circadian rhythms in pregnant mice profoundly aggravated the severity of neonatal inflammatory disorders, including necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and sepsis. The diminished production of maternal-derived docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and the impaired immunosuppressive function of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in neonates played a dominant role in this process. Mechanistically, DHA enhanced the immunosuppressive function of neonatal MDSCs viaPPARγ mediated mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Transfer of MDSCs or perinatal supplementation of DHA relieved neonatal inflammation induced by maternal rhythms disruption. These observations revealed an important role of maternal circadian rhythms in the control of neonatal inflammation via metabolic reprograming of myeloid cells.

Multi-omics Analysis Revealing the Impact of Excessive Maternal Folate Supplementation on Offspring Brain Development [spatial transcriptome]

Project description:Folate is crucial for diverse biological processes including neurogenesis. While folate supplementation during pregnancy is standard for preventing neural tube defects (NTDs), concerns are growing over the potential risks of excessive maternal intake. In this study, we employed spatial transcriptomics and single-nucleus multi-omics techniques to investigate the impact of increased maternal folate intake on offspring brain development. Elevated folate intake broadly affected gene pathways linked to neurogenesis and neuronal axon myelination across multiple brain regions. Furthermore, specific gene expression alterations related to learning and memory processes emerged in thalamic and ventricular regions. Single-nucleus multi-omics analysis revealed that maturing excitatory neurons in dentate gyrus are particularly vulnerable to suboptimal maternal folate intake. Aberrant gene expression and chromatin accessibility changes were primarily centered on pathways governing ribosomal biogenesis, which is critical for synaptic formation. Altogether, our findings provide novel insights into how excessive maternal folate supplementation affects offspring brain development, notably by influencing gene expression and chromatin accessibility.

High-fat diet during mouse pregnancy impairs fetal heart development

Project description:Maternal obesity is associated with detrimental outcomes in offspring. However, the specific effects of gestational exposure to a high-fat diet (HFD) on fetal heart development remain poorly understood. In the study, we investigated that maternal overnutrition accounted for defective development in offspring, and cell proliferation was restricted severely in neonatal organ. Starting with this clue, we found decreased cell cycle and similar cross area of cardiomyocytes in offspring exposed to a maternal HFD. Moreover, RNA sequencing analysis detected that HFD diminished fatty acid metabolism, enhanced inflammation response and up-regulated substantially the pathway TP53 regulates transcription of cell cycle genes in postnatal day 0 (P0) cardiomyocytes. Further, normal lactation after delivery not only recovered from growth retardation but also maintained normal cardiac function in offspring. These data demonstrated a potential TP53 pathway-dependent mechanism through which maternal HFD contributed to offspring cardiac defects.

Maternal folic acid supplementation alters gene expression in the offspring brain

Project description:Studies have indicated that altered maternal micronutrients and vitamins influence the development and susceptibility of newborns to chronic diseases. Among these, folic acid (FA) plays a key role in the synthesis and repair of DNA, along with maintenance of epigenetic DNA methylation. Deficiency of FA has been associated with the pathogenesis of neural tube defects. Since FA can modulate DNA methylation and affect gene expression, we investigated the effect of gestational FA supplementation on the expression of genes in the offspring brain. Our results suggest that a maternal ten-fold increase in FA supplementation alters the expression and dysregulates a number of genes in the offspring brain, including many involved in development. While a number of genes that were dysregulated were common to both male and female pups, there were sex differences in gene expression changes.

Propionic acid promotes neurite recovery in damaged multiple sclerosis neurons

Project description:Neurodegeneration in the autoimmune disease multiple sclerosis (MS) still poses a major therapeutic challenge. Effective drugs that target the inflammation can only partially reduce accumulation of neurological deficits and conversion to progressive disease forms. Diet and the associated gut microbiome are currently being discussed as crucial environmental risk factors that determine disease onset and subsequent progression. In people with MS (pwMS), supplementation of the short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) propionic acid (PA), as microbial metabolite derived from the fermentation of a high-fiber diet, has previously been shown to regulate inflammation accompanied by neuroprotective properties. We set out to determine, whether the neuroprotective impact of PA is a direct mode of action of SCFAs on central nervous system (CNS) neurons.
