Maternal vitamin and mineral supplementation effects on fetal liver at birth

ABSTRACT: We investigated gene regulatory relationships in the neonatal liver to identify potential mechanisms by which maternal vitamin and mineral supplementation during gestation influences developmental programming in heifer calves. Accordingly, the hepatic transcriptome was measured using RNA-Seq in 12 calves collected 30 h after calving from dams fed a diet initiated 60 days pre-breeding and con-tinuing throughout gestation (VTM or CON, n = 6/group). We identified 630 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between treatment groups. We also identified 58 transcription factors (TFs) and 435 differentially connected genes (p < 0.05), suggesting maternal diet induced a regulatory rewiring of TFs and histone deacetylating genes. Further research should explore whether these transcriptional changes are linked to epigenetic modifications established at birth, persist throughout postnatal development, and potentially contribute to multigenerational inheritance.

Proteomic profiling of anterior pituitary of heifer calves offered either a high or moderate plane of nutrition in early life

Project description:Enhanced nutrition during the early calfhood period has been shown to hasten the onset of puberty in heifer calves. The hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian biochemical signalling axis regulates reproductive development in heifers, with the dynamics of gonadotropin pulsatility within the anterior pituitary gland, in particular, central to final sexual maturity. However, the precise molecular mechanisms regulating the influence of metabolic status on this signalling axis in heifer calves is yet to be fully elucidated. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of an enhanced plane of nutrition during early life, up to 21 weeks of age, on the anterior pituitary gland proteome of heifer calves. Heifer calves were offered either a high or moderate plane of nutrition. Pathway analysis of differentially abundant proteins highlighted an effect on both growth hormone and GnRH signalling pathways, as well as an effect towards reproductive system development and function

Epigenetic modifications of white blood cell DNA caused by transient fetal infection with bovine viral diarrhea virus

Project description:The impact of late-term fetal bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) transient infections (TI) on fetal growth and methylome was examined by inoculating pregnant heifers with a noncytopathic (ncp) type 2 BVDV suspended in media or media alone (sham-inoculated controls) on day 175 of gestation to generate TI (n=11) and control heifer calves (n=12). Blood samples were collected at birth. White blood cells (WBC) were separated for DNA extraction. Fetal infection in calves was confirmed by positive virus serum neutralizing antibody titers at birth and control calves were seronegative. Both control and TI calves were negative for BVDV RNA in WBCs by RT-PCR. DNA methyl seq analysis of WBC DNA demonstrated 2,349 differentially methylated cytosines (p≤0.05) including 1,277 hypomethylated cytosines, 1.072 hypermethylated cytosines, 84 differentially methylated regions based on CpGs in promoters and 89 DMRs based on CpGs in exons of TI WBC DNA compared to controls. Fetal BVDV infection during late gestation resulted in epigenomic modifications predicted to affect fetal and organ development pathways suggesting potential consequences for postnatal growth and health of TI cattle.

Effect of early-life plane of nutrition on the transcriptional profile of the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus region in heifer calves

Project description:The aim of this study was to examine alterations in the transcriptional profile of the arcuate nucleus region of the hypothalamus between heifer calves offered varying planes of nutrition during early life. Angus X Holstein-Friesian heifer calves (19 ± 5 days of age, BW: 51.2 ± 7.8 kg, mean ± SD) were offered a high (HP, n=14) or moderate plane of nutrition (MP, n=15) from 3 to 21 weeks of age to achieve a target growth rate of 1.2 kg/d and 0.5 kg/d, respectively. At 21 weeks of age, all calves were euthanized and the arcuate nucleus region of the hypothalamus of each calf recovered. RNA was extracted transcriptional profiles examined using RNAseq. Compared with calves on the moderate plane of nutrition, a High plane of nutrition altered the expression of 80 genes within the arucate nucleus. Functional analysis of differentially expressed genes revealed functions including organismal development, behaviour, endocrine system development and function, lipid metabolism, molecular transport, small molecule biochemistry, cellular development, cellular growth and proliferation, and nervous system development and function to be affected by early life plane of nutrition in the arucate nucleus of heifer calves.

Poor maternal nutrition during gestation alters prenatal muscle growth and development in offspring

Project description:We hypothesized that poor maternal nutrition during gestation would reduce the growth and development of offspring muscle prenatally, reduce the number of myogenic progenitor cells, and result in changes in the global expression of genes involved in prenatal muscle development and function. Ewes were fed a control (100% NRC)-, restricted (60% NRC),- or over-fed (140% NRC) diet beginning at day 30 of gestation until day 45, 90, and 135 of gestation or until parturition. In offspring, we report altered secondary: primary muscle fiber ratios and percent PAX7 positive cells during fetal development. In addition, changes in muscle mRNA expression were observed between maternal dietary treatments and over timepoints during gestation. In conclusion, poor maternal nutrition during gestation contributes to altered offspring muscle growth during early fetal development which persists throughout the fetal stage.

Mitochondrial dysfunction charachterizes the multigenerational effects of maternal obesity on MASLD

Project description:Although maternal obesity is an independent risk factor for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), the pathogenesis remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the effect and mechanisms of multigenerational maternal western diet (WD) on MASLD progression, and test drug candidates in a preclinical model. Female mice were fed WD from 8 weeks before breeding initiation with a normal chow (NC)-fed male, throughout pregnancy and lactation. Male offspring were weaned onto NC or WD and assessed at the age of 16 weeks. Maternal WD feeding aggravated body weight gain, insulin resistance, steatosis and inflammation. Fibrosis was only observed in offspring exposed to maternal WD. Mechanistically, the latter exhibited reduced OXPHOS activity. Maternal WD aggravates MASLD in male offspring, with mitochondrial dysfunction contributing to disease severity.

Inclusion of Oat and Yeast Culture in Sow Gestational and Lactational Diets Alter Certain Immune and Antimicrobial Associated Proteins in Milk

Project description:probiotics and prebiotics to maternal diets is related to decreased incidence of diarrhea and greater weight gain during lactation. Our objective was to determine the impact of adding whole ground oat as a prebiotic alone or in combination with postbiotic yeast culture (YC) (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) to sow gestation and lactation rations on milk composition, piglet growth, and incidence of post weaning diarrhea (PWD). Diets: control (CON), CON + yeast culture (YC) [5g/kg], CON + oat (15% inclusion rate) (Oat) or CON+ YC [5g/kg] + Oat (15%) were fed during the last 30 days of gestation and throughout lactation (18-21 days). Shotgun proteome analysis of day 4 and 7 postpartum milk samples found 36 differentially abundant proteins (P-adj <0.1) in both Oat and YC supplemented sows relative to CON. Notable was increased expression of antimicrobial proteins, lactoferrin and chitinase. IgG in milk of Oat supplemented sows was lower than YC supplemented sows (p<0.05) but had greater E. coli-antigen reactivity. Piglet weights at birth were similar. At weaning YC + Oat piglets weighed less and gained less weight (p<0.05) postweaning than CON. The incidence of PWD was lowest in the YC and Oat groups compared to CON and YC+ Oat groups. These data suggest that Oat or YC culture supplementation alters milk immune and antimicrobial associated proteins that can impact piglets but may have negative effects on piglet growth when given in combination.
