Naringin Supplementation during Pregnancy Induces Sex and Region-Specific Alterations in the Offspring's Brain Redox Status. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph18094805. [PMID: 33946307 PMCID: PMC8124438 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18094805] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2021] [Revised: 04/21/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Research has shown the beneficial effects of naringin supplementation to adult rodents, which can ameliorate oxidative stress in disease models. However, evidence has demonstrated that polyphenol supplementation induced detrimental effects when consumed during sensitive periods of development, such as pregnancy. Therefore, we investigated the effect of maternal naringin supplementation during pregnancy on the offspring’s cerebral redox status. Pregnant Wistar rats were divided into control and naringin groups and supplemented from gestational day 15 to gestational day 21. On postnatal days 1, 7, and 21, offspring were euthanized, and the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, striatum, and cerebellum dissected. On postnatal day 1, maternal naringin supplementation positively modulated the pups’ brain redox status. On postnatal day 7, a pro-oxidative milieu was observed in the offspring’s striatum and cerebellum in a sex-dependent manner, even though the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus were not negatively affected. Besides, the alterations observed on postnatal day 7 did not persist up to weaning. Our findings demonstrated that the effect induced by naringin supplementation in the brain redox status differed according to the period of development in which naringin was consumed since the beneficial effects usually found in the adult rodents became detrimental when the supplementation was applied during pregnancy.

Abstract
Mother-pup interactions are extremely important to offspring survival and growth. The goal of this study was to evaluate the influence of prenatal and neonatal interventions on maternal care, analyzing the effect of maternal exercise, as a healthy intervention, and also the litter size reduction, a model that has been widely used to study early overfeeding in rats. Female Wistar rats were divided into 1) sedentary, and 2) swimming exercise for four weeks, starting one week before mating (5 days/week, 30 min/session). One day after birth, the litter was culled to 8 pups (normal) or 3 pups (small) per dam, yielding control and overfed subgroups for each maternal group, respectively. From postnatal days 2-9 the litter was observed 5 periods a day, to evaluate maternal behavior. Litter reduction caused important alterations in maternal behavior, reducing the total time out of the nest and increasing the frequency of maternal care and lactation in several observation periods, justifying the increased pup's weight gain already demonstrated by this animal model. The practice of maternal exercise did not prevent, but cause the less intensive frequency of non-maternal behavior and lactation in arched-back position, induced by the reduction of litter size. These data demonstrated that small litter size altered maternal behavior, and gestational exercise does not influence significantly these changes.

Treatment with cinnamaldehyde reduces the visceral adiposity and regulates lipid metabolism, autophagy and endoplasmic reticulum stress in the liver of a rat model of early obesity. J Nutr Biochem 2019; 77:108321.

Abstract
Nutrition at early stages of life contributes to the alarming incidence of childhood obesity, insulin resistance and hepatoesteatosis. Cinnamaldehyde, major component of cinnamon, increases insulin sensitivity and modulates adiposity and lipid metabolism. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of cinnamaldehyde treatment during adolescence in a rat model of early obesity. Litter size reduction was used to induce overfeeding and early obesity. At postnatal day 30 (adolescence), the male Wistar rats received cinnamaldehyde by gavage (40 mg/kg of body weight/day) for 29 days and were studied at the end of treatment at 60 days old or 4 months thereafter (180 days old). At 60 days of age, the treatment with cinnamaldehyde promoted reduced visceral adiposity, serum triacylglycerol, and attenuation of energy efficiency and insulin resistance. In the liver, it reduced lipid synthesis, stimulated autophagy and reduced ER stress. At 180 days of age, animals treated with cinnamaldehyde during the adolescence exhibited normalization of visceral adiposity and energy efficiency, and attenuation of hyperphagia, serum hypertriglyceridemia and hepatic triacylglycerol content, with molecular markers indicative of reduced hepatic synthesis. However, the beneficial effect observed at 60 days of age on glucose homeostasis, autophagy and ER stress was lost. Therefore, the cinnamaldehyde supplementation during the adolescence has short- and long-term metabolic beneficial effects, highlighting its potential as an adjuvant in the treatment of early obesity.

Abstract
Nutrient limitation in the form of chronic dietary restriction (DR), or more specifically a life-long reduction of total daily nutritional intake, was first shown to extend longevity in rats more than eight decades ago and is one of the most robust anti-aging interventions known. More recently, it has become apparent that dietary restriction limited to only the first few weeks of life in rodents is also capable of significantly impacting aging and longevity. The imposition of nutrient limitation is often achieved via the manipulation of litter size or the modulation of maternal nutrient intake during the lactational period. Not surprisingly, nutrient limited pups are smaller at weaning, and remain so throughout their life, while exhibiting signs of slowed aging. In this review, we discuss potential mechanisms that account for the anti-aging effects of postnatal undernutrition with an emphasis on those pathways that parallel changes seen with chronic DR.
