ER stress and lipid imbalance drive diabetic embryonic cardiomyopathy in an organoid model of human heart development. Stem Cell Reports 2024; 19:317-330. [PMID: 38335962 PMCID: PMC10937107 DOI: 10.1016/j.stemcr.2024.01.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Congenital heart defects are the most prevalent human birth defects, and their incidence is exacerbated by maternal health conditions, such as diabetes during the first trimester (pregestational diabetes). Our understanding of the pathology of these disorders is hindered by a lack of human models and the inaccessibility of embryonic tissue. Using an advanced human heart organoid system, we simulated embryonic heart development under pregestational diabetes-like conditions. These organoids developed pathophysiological features observed in mouse and human studies before, including ROS-mediated stress and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. scRNA-seq revealed cardiac cell-type-specific dysfunction affecting epicardial and cardiomyocyte populations and alterations in the endoplasmic reticulum and very-long-chain fatty acid lipid metabolism. Imaging and lipidomics confirmed these findings and showed that dyslipidemia was linked to fatty acid desaturase 2 mRNA decay dependent on IRE1-RIDD signaling. Targeting IRE1 or restoring lipid levels partially reversed the effects of pregestational diabetes, offering potential preventive and therapeutic strategies in humans.

Abstract
Congenital heart defects constitute the most common birth defect in humans, affecting approximately 1% of all live births. The incidence of congenital heart defects is exacerbated by maternal conditions, such as diabetes during the first trimester. Our ability to mechanistically understand these disorders is severely limited by the lack of human models and the inaccessibility to human tissue at relevant stages. Here, we used an advanced human heart organoid model that recapitulates complex aspects of heart development during the first trimester to model the effects of pregestational diabetes in the human embryonic heart. We observed that heart organoids in diabetic conditions develop pathophysiological hallmarks like those previously reported in mouse and human studies, including ROS-mediated stress and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, among others. Single cell RNA-seq revealed cardiac cell type specific-dysfunction affecting epicardial and cardiomyocyte populations, and suggested alterations in endoplasmic reticulum function and very long chain fatty acid lipid metabolism. Confocal imaging and LC-MS lipidomics confirmed our observations and showed that dyslipidemia was mediated by fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2) mRNA decay dependent on IRE1-RIDD signaling. We also found that the effects of pregestational diabetes could be reversed to a significant extent using drug interventions targeting either IRE1 or restoring healthy lipid levels within organoids, opening the door to new preventative and therapeutic strategies in humans.

Recent Experimental Studies of Maternal Obesity, Diabetes during Pregnancy and the Developmental Origins of Cardiovascular Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23084467.

Abstract
Globally, cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death. Most concerning is the rise in cardiovascular risk factors including obesity, diabetes and hypertension among youth, which increases the likelihood of the development of earlier and more severe cardiovascular disease. While lifestyle factors are involved in these trends, an increasing body of evidence implicates environmental exposures in early life on health outcomes in adulthood. Maternal obesity and diabetes during pregnancy, which have increased dramatically in recent years, also have profound effects on fetal growth and development. Mounting evidence is emerging that maternal obesity and diabetes during pregnancy have lifelong effects on cardiovascular risk factors and heart disease development. However, the mechanisms responsible for these observations are unknown. In this review, we summarize the findings of recent experimental studies, showing that maternal obesity and diabetes during pregnancy affect energy metabolism and heart disease development in the offspring, with a focus on the mechanisms involved. We also evaluate early proof-of-concept studies for interventions that could mitigate maternal obesity and gestational diabetes-induced cardiovascular disease risk in the offspring.

Melatonin Administration Prevents Placental and Fetal Changes Induced by Gestational Diabetes. Reprod Sci 2022; 29:1111-1123.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) promotes changes in the placenta and fetuses, due to oxidative stress. Antioxidants can reduce oxidative stress in the placenta. We tested the hypothesis that melatonin (Mel) can prevent these effects in the placenta and fetuses, analyzing their histology, histochemistry, morphometry, and immunohistochemistry. Thirty albino rats were used, divided into groups: CG-pregnant non-diabetic rats; GD-pregnant diabetic rats; GD + Mel-pregnant diabetic rats treated with melatonin. Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin at a dosage of 50 mg/kg i.p. Melatonin was administered in daily injections of 0.8 mg/kg i.p. Melatonin prevented the placental weight and fetal weight and length from increasing, in addition to histomoformetric, histochemical, and immunohistochemical changes in the placentas, compared to the placentas of diabetic females (GD). Thus, we conclude that melatonin has a great potential to prevent placental changes due to GDM.

Abstract
Physical exercise is an important therapeutic agent for women with diabetes during gestation. However, its histophysiological consequences for the placenta remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the expression of VEGF-A, IL1ß, TNFα, and type I collagen in the placentas of diabetic rats subjected to a swimming program. Thirty rats were divided into the following groups: CG, pregnant nondiabetic rats; CEG, nondiabetic pregnant rats subjected to swimming; DG, pregnant diabetic rats; DEG, pregnant diabetic rats subjected to swimming; DIG, pregnant diabetic rats treated with insulin; DIEG, pregnant diabetic rats treated with insulin and subjected to swimming. Diabetes was induced using streptozotocin [50 mg/kg intraperitoneally (i.p.)], and insulin was administered at a dose of 5 U/day i.p. (2 U at 10 am and 3 U at 7 pm) in the DIG group; in the DIEG group, insulin was administered at a dose of only 2 U/day at 7 pm. The rats were sacrificed on the 20th day of gestation. There was an increase in the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α, VEGF-A, and type I collagen and a higher apoptotic index in the placentas of the DG and DEG groups, but there was a reduction in glycemia in the latter group. In the DIG and DIEG groups, the levels remained similar to those of the control; however, in these groups the reduction was more significant for all analyzed parameters. Therefore, in rats induced to diabetes during pregnancy, swimming, although reducing glycemic levels, did not prevent immunohistochemical changes in the placenta, suggesting the need for a multidisciplinary protocol associated with traditional pharmacological treatment.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS The impact of diabetic pregnancy has been investigated extensively regarding offspring metabolism; however, little is known about the influence on the heart. We aimed to characterise the effects of a diabetic pregnancy on male adult offspring cardiac health after feeding a high-fat diet in an established transgenic rat model. METHODS We applied our rat model for maternal type 2 diabetes characterised by maternal insulin resistance with hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinaemia. Diabetes was induced preconceptionally via doxycycline-induced knock down of the insulin receptor in transgenic rats. Male wild-type offspring of diabetic and normoglycaemic pregnancies were raised by foster mothers, followed up into adulthood and subgroups were challenged by a high-fat diet. Cardiac phenotype was assessed by innovative speckle tracking echocardiography, circulating factors, immunohistochemistry and gene expression in the heart. RESULTS When feeding normal chow, we did not observe differences in cardiac function, gene expression and plasma brain natriuretic peptide between adult diabetic or normoglycaemic offspring. Interestingly, when being fed a high-fat diet, adult offspring of diabetic pregnancy demonstrated decreased global longitudinal (-14.82 ± 0.59 vs -16.60 ± 0.48%) and circumferential strain (-23.40 ± 0.57 vs -26.74 ± 0.34%), increased relative wall thickness (0.53 ± 0.06 vs 0.37 ± 0.02), altered cardiac gene expression, enlarged cardiomyocytes (106.60 ± 4.14 vs 87.94 ± 1.67 μm), an accumulation of immune cells in the heart (10.27 ± 0.30 vs 6.48 ± 0.48 per fov) and higher plasma brain natriuretic peptide levels (0.50 ± 0.12 vs 0.12 ± 0.03 ng/ml) compared with normoglycaemic offspring on a high-fat diet. Blood pressure, urinary albumin, blood glucose and body weight were unaltered between groups on a high-fat diet. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Diabetic pregnancy in rats induces cardiac dysfunction, left ventricular hypertrophy and altered proinflammatory status in adult offspring only after a high-fat diet. A diabetic pregnancy itself was not sufficient to impair myocardial function and gene expression in male offspring later in life. This suggests that a postnatal high-fat diet is important for the development of cardiac dysfunction in rat offspring after diabetic pregnancy. Our data provide evidence that a diabetic pregnancy is a novel cardiac risk factor that becomes relevant when other challenges, such as a high-fat diet, are present.

Abstract
The continuing rise in the global prevalence of diabetes and overweight or obesity has become a major burden for global health, as the pandemic is affecting both high and low-middle income countries (LMIC). At the same time, a similar pattern has been observed for all forms of hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HIP), diabetes during pregnancy and gestational diabetes. The offspring of mothers with HIP and/or overweight-obesity is receiving increasing attention as advances in early detection and treatment of HIP did not completely prevent macrosomia and its associated short-term perinatal disorders, whilst long term consequences are observed in the mother and in offspring as it reaches adulthood. This review discusses the current developments in the consequences of HIP in the offspring, with a particular focus on its long-term health at adulthood, and on intergenerational and transgenerational effects. HIP is emerging as one of the factors that can contribute, during the window of sensitivity to environmental cues constituted by the preconception, pregnancy, and early childhood, and as an amplifying factor linked to reproduction, to the current global epidemic of diabetes and non-communicable diseases (NCDs).
