Hepatocyte reporter cells and integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses reveal insights into hepatocyte changes in offspring of pregnancies with obesity

ABSTRACT: Infants born to mothers with obesity have increased risk for later development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); however early hepatic changes that occur in these infants remain unclear. We integrated metabolomic analysis of umbilical cord plasma and transcriptomic analysis of cord plasma-exposed hepatocytes to examine differences in the intrauterine environment of pregnancies with and without maternal obesity. We identified significantly higher abundance of fatty acids, bioactive lipids, and upregulation of glutathione metabolism in cord plasma from pregnancies with obesity compared to normal weight pregnancies. Hepatocytes exposed to cord plasma from pregnancies with obesity exhibited distinct transcriptional changes that favored cellular injury and inflammation, and impaired hepatocyte development compared to hepatocytes exposed to cord plasma of normal weight pregnancies. In integrated analysis, metabolite-gene relationships were distinct between pregnancies with and without obesity, and the abundance of lipids were positively correlated with the expression of KDM4D, DTX3, and NOTCH4 and negatively correlated with the expression of MT_TS1. Our findings provide novel insights into transcriptional changes induced in hepatocytes by circulating factors in the intrauterine environment of pregnancies with obesity. Excess intrauterine lipids may contribute to hepatic injury, inflammation, impaired mitochondrial function, and impaired hepatocyte development in infants of pregnancies with obesity.

Maternal-diabetes induced gene expression changes in the umbilical cord

Project description:Analysis of umbilical cord tissue in newborns of type 1 diabetic mothers at gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that intrauterine diabetic milieu may effect of fetal umbilical cord gene expression, and via umbilical cord, the alterations may be produced in other fetal tissues as well. Results provide an information of the differentially expressed genes and enriched pathways, such as the dowregulated genes on the pathway on blood vessel development in umbilical cords from diabetic pregnancies. Umbilical cord tissue was collected after elective ceasarean section and was immediately flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80C until total RNA extraction from the whole tissue sample. Six cords exposed to maternal diabetes (DM) and six control cords (C) from healthy pregnancies were analyzed.

Molecular markers of predictive value associated with low birth weight

Project description:Sub-optimal fetal development is associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes (T2D) and adiposity later in life. However, definitions of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and small for gestational age (SGA) are based on simple statistical approaches that may misclassify infants with a normal developmental profile and vice versa. We used an unbiased global profiling approach to identify gene expression patterns in umbilical cord tissue from 38 infants and identified a set of 466 genes which separated the subjects into 2 distinct groups – one biased towards lower birth weight and one biased towards normal birth weight. The data suggest that approximately 30% of children of normal size have a molecular profile more typical of impaired fetal development and who may be on a programmed trajectory. Differences in expression between the two groups encompassed 384 upregulated and 82 downregulated genes. Molecular profiling at birth may have utility in identifying markers that potentially reflect antenatal developmental and may be predictive of future phenotypic development after birth. Importantly, it may provide an alternative to the current classification of infants using birth weights. RNA from umbilical cord tissue from full term neonates was extracted and hybridized. Separation into 2 distinct groups, independent of birth weight, but based solely on gene expression levels was analysed by Genespring. After appropriate statistical analysis, one group was keenly associated with a higher birth weight (22 samples) while the other was associated with a lower birth-weight (18 samples). Technical replicates were included for all 40 samples.

Methylation arrays (MethylationEPIC) of cord and peripheral whole blood from children born to mothers with obesity or gestational diabetes, with longitudinal follow-up during their first year of life

Project description:Epidemiological studies have associated maternal metabolic conditions such as obesity and gestational diabetes with poor health outcomes in the offspring. Epigenetic mechanisms may help explain the intrauterine influence that mothers have on their offspring during pregnancy. Here, using Illumina's MethylationEPIC array technology, we have longitudinally profiled the blood methylomes of children born to mothers with obesity and obesity with gestational diabetes, and healthy controls, during the first year of life (measurements at 0, cord blood; 6 and 12 months, peripheral blood).

Effects of dietary fat on neurodevelopmental outcomes in normal birth weight and intrauterine growth restricted piglets

Project description:Breast milk has shown neurodevelopmental advantages compared to infant formula, especially in IUGR infants, which may relate to the fat source. This study aimed to compare neurodevelopmental outcomes in normal birth weight (NBW) and intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) piglets fed a formula diet with either a vegetable oil (VEG) or bovine milk fat source (MILK). Results showed that total plasma lipids were increased by feeding the MILK diet. 82% and 11% of lipid species were differentially expressed between dietary groups in plasma and hippocampus, respectively, with slight agreement between the plasma and brain lipidome. The MILK diet was most effective in increasing brain lipid accretion, mainly comprising phospholipids. Absolute regional brain weights, grey and white matter volumes, and behavior and motor function scores were lower in IUGR piglets with no effects of diet. Cognitive function and gene expression profiles were similar for dietary and weight groups, and overall only minor interactive effects between diet and weight were observed. In conclusion, dietary fat source influenced the plasma and to a lesser degree the hippocampal lipidome, but was unable to improve on IUGR induced brain structural and functional impairments.

Serum proteomics of infants in utero exposed to Zika virus without Congenital Zika Syndrome

Project description:In 2015, ZIKV infection attracted international attention during an epidemic in the Americas, when neurological disorders were reported in babies who had their mothers exposed to ZIKV during pregnancy. World Health Organization (WHO) epidemiological data show that 5 to 15% of neonates exposed to ZIKV in the uterus have complications included in abnormalities related to Congenital Zika Syndrome (CZS). The risk of complications after birth is not well documented, however, clinical evidence shows that 6% of babies exposed to ZIKV during pregnancy have complications present at birth, and this rate rises to 14% when medical monitoring is performed in all exposed babies, regardless of birth condition. Thus, the evaluation and monitoring of all exposed babies are of foremost importance as the development of late complications has been increasingly supported by clinical evidence. The identification of molecular markers in infants exposed to ZIKV without CZS could provide valuable means to improve their clinical monitoring. Here, we used a shotgun-proteomic approach to investigate molecular markers in the serum of infants without CZS symptoms but exposed to ZIKV intrauterine (ZIKV) compared to non-exposed controls (CTRL).

Single-cell immunophenotyping of the fetal immune response to maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection

Project description:During the COVID-19 pandemic, thousands of pregnant women have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 worldwide. The short- and long-term implications of maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection on fetal and childhood well-being are unknown. To characterize the fetal immune response to maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing and T cell receptor sequencing on cord blood mononuclear cells from infants born to mothers infected with SARS-CoV-2 in the third trimester. We identified widespread gene expression changes in cord blood leukocytes, including upregulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISG) and of HLA genes in CD14+ monocytes; decreased activation of CD16+ monocytes; activation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells; and activation and exhaustion of NK cells and T CD8+ cells in the cord blood of infants born to SARS-CoV-2+ mothers. Lastly, we observed fetal TCR repertoire clonal expansion in cord blood T cells from pregnancies complicated by maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection. Our results suggest that even in the absence of vertical transmission, SARS-CoV-2 maternal infection in the third trimester modulates the fetal immune system.
