Environmental Factors Influence the Epigenetic Signature of Newborns from Mothers with Gestational Diabetes

ABSTRACT: Here we investigated the degree by which epigenetic signatures in children from mothers with obesity or gestational diabetes mellitus are influenced by environmental factors. We profiled the DNA methylation signature of whole blood from lean, obese and gestational diabetes mellitus mothers and their respective newborns. DNA methylation profiles of mothers showed high similarity across groups, while on the contrary, newborns from GDM mothers showed a marked distinct epigenetic profile compared to newborns of both lean and obese mothers. Analysis of variance in DNA methylation levels between newborns showed higher variance in the GDM group. Our work suggest that environmental factors, rather than direct transmission of epigenetic marks from the mother, are involved in establishing the epigenetic signature associated with GDM.

Reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) methylation profiles of placenta and umbilical cord blood with or without gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM)

Project description:Objective: To explore the characteristics and underlying molecular mechanisms of genome-scale expression profiles of women with- or without- gestational diabetes mellitus and their offspring. Materials and Methods: We recruited a group of 21 pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and 20 healthy pregnant women as controls. For each pregnant women, RRBS were performed using the placenta and paired neonatal umbilical cord blood specimens. Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified. Then, functional enrichment analysis was performed to differential methylated genes (DMGs) separately or interactively in placenta and umbilical cord blood. Results: Through the comparison of GDM and healthy samples, 2779 and 141 DMRs were identified from placenta and umbilical cord blood, respectively. Functional enrichment analysis showed that the placenta methylation and expression profiles of GDM women mirrored the molecular characteristics of “type II diabetes” and “insulin resistance”. Methylation-altered genes in umbilical cord blood were associated with pathways “type II diabetes” and “cholesterol metabolism”. DMGs illustrated significant overlaps among placenta and umbilical cord blood samples, and the overlapping DMGs were associated with cholesterol metabolism. Conclusions: Our research demonstrated the epigenomic alternations of GDM mothers and offspring. Our findings emphasized the importance of epigenetic modifications in the communication between pregnant women with GDM and offspring, and provided reference for the prevention, control, treatment, and intervention of perinatal deleterious events of GDM and neonatal complications.

Effects of GDM involves alterations in gene specific DNA methylation

Project description:Gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM) will bring health issues for offspring. The offspring of diabetic mothers often reveal high birth weight and are prone to have obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia. It was implied that the phenotype of offspring might be influenced by intrauterine environment and planned in utero already in addition to the genetic influences.M-bM-^@M-^XProgrammingM-bM-^@M-^Y refers to the process whereby a stimulus at a critical window of development has long-term effects. A large body of studies investigated the adverse intrauterine environment was correlated with poor fetal growth and increased risk of Type 2 diabetes in the adulthood. Epigenetic mechanism has been proposed to involve in the link between environmental and nutritional factors and gene expression regulation. DNA methylation is one of the major epigenetic modifications. We hypothesized that DNA methylation changes could participate in the gene expression related to glucose intolerance in the offspring. Furthermore, DNA methylation might also determine the transgenerational disease transmission. comparison of intrauterine hyperglycemia exposed rats vs. control rats for genome-wide DNA methylation changes

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 diabetes exposure induces an altered cardiac transcriptome that is associated with impaired cardiac function in the rat offspring

Project description:Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is the most common complication of pregnancy. Children of mothers with GDM are at an increased risk for the development of cardiometabolic disease later in life, though the mechanisms responsible for this observation are unknown. We propose that an altered cardiac transcriptome, programmed in utero, may be a contributing mechanism to cardiometabolic disease development and hypothesize that the hearts of offspring exposed to GDM will exhibit altered gene expression pathways. The purpose of this project will be to study alterations in the cardiac transcriptome of young adult rat offspring after exposure to GDM to investigate the mechanisms responsible for the developmental origins of cardiovascular disease.

Epigenetic signatures of gestational diabetes mellitus on ATP5A1, PRKCH, SLC17A4 and HIF3A cord blood methylation

Project description:Background: Intrauterine exposure to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) confers a lifelong increased risk for metabolic and other complex disorders to the offspring. GDM-induced epigenetic modifications modulating gene regulation and persisting into later life are generally assumed to mediate these increased disease risks. To identify candidate genes for fetal programming, we compared genome-wide methylation patterns of fetal cord bloods (FCBs) from GDM and control pregnancies. Methods and Results: Using Illumina's 450K methylation arrays and following correction for multiple testing, 65 CpG sites (52 of which are associated with genes) displayed significant methylation differences between GDM and control samples. Three of four candidate genes, ATP5A1, PRKCH, and SLC17A4, from our methylation screen and one, HIF3A, from the literature were validated by bisulfite pyrosequencing. The GDM effect on FCB methylation was more pronounced in women with insulin-dependent GDM who had a more severe metabolic phenotype than women with dietetically treated GDM. However, the effect remained significant after adjustment for the maternal BMI and gestational week in a multivariate regression model. Conclusions: Our study supports an association between maternal GDM and the epigenetic status of the exposed offspring. Consistent with a multifactorial disease model, the observed FCB methylation changes are of small effect size but affect multiple genes/loci. The identified genes are primary candidates for transmitting GDM effects to the next generation. They also may provide useful biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of adverse prenatal exposures and assessing the success of interventions during pregnancy.
