Sexual dimorphism in thermogenic regulators and metrnl expression in adipose tissue of offspring mice exposed to maternal and postnatal overnutrition. J Physiol Biochem 2024; 80:407-420.

Abstract
Current study investigated the impact of maternal and postnatal overnutrition on phenotype of adipose, in relation to offspring thermogenesis and sex. Female C57BL/6 J mice were fed with CHOW or high fat diet (HFD) for 2 weeks before mating, throughout gestation and lactation. At weaning, pups were fed to 9 weeks old with CHOW or HFD, which resulted in four groups for each gender--male or female: CHOW-CHOW (CC), CHOW-HFD (CH), HFD-CHOW (HC), HFD-HFD (HH). Maternal and post-weaning HFD enhanced thermogenic factors such as Acox1, Dio2 and Cox8b in iBAT of male and female offspring, but increased SIRT1, PGC-1α and UCP1 only in female. However, Acox1, Dio2 and Cox8b mRNA expression and SIRT1, PGC-1α and UCP1 protein expression were only enhanced upon maternal and post-weaning HFD in sWAT and pWAT of female offspring. Increased metrnl expression in adipose were observed in sex- and depot-specific manner, while enhanced circulating metrnl level was only observed in male offspring undergoing maternal HFD. Palmitic acid changed metrnl expression during preadipocytes differentiation and siRNA-mediated knockdown of metrnl inhibited preadipocyte differentiation. Female offspring were more prone to resist adverse outcomes induced by maternal and post-weaning overnutrition, which probably related to metrnl expression and thermogenesis.

The effect of synbiotic supplementation on atherogenic indices, hs-CRP, and malondialdehyde, as major CVD-related parameters, in women with gestational diabetes mellitus: a secondary data-analysis of a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2022; 14:87. [PMID: 35729675 PMCID: PMC9210584 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-022-00858-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Women with GDM have a higher risk of future cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Meanwhile, synbiotics have been demonstrated to have favorable impacts on atherogenic indices, and inflammatory and oxidative stress indicators, all of which are known to be CVD-predictive factors. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effects of synbiotic supplementation on the atherogenic indices of plasma, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) in women with GDM. METHODS Eligible pregnant women with GDM were randomized into two groups to receive a daily synbiotic capsule [500 mg of L.acidophilus(5 × 1010 CFU/g), L.plantarum(1.5 × 1010 CFU/g), L.fermentum(7 × 109 CFU/g), L.Gasseri(2 × 1010 CFU/g) and 38.5 mg of fructo-oligo-saccharides], or placebo, for 6 weeks. The ratios of TC/HDL-C, LDL/HDL-C, and logTG/HDL-C were calculated as the atherogenic indices. Serum hs-CRP and MDA concentrations were quantified before and after the intervention. Cohen's d(d) was used to calculate the magnitude of the effect. RESULTS Ninety participants completed the study. There was no significant difference in dietary antioxidant and mineral intakes between the two groups. Compared with placebo, synbiotic supplementation resulted in a significant decrease in logTG/HDL-C ratio with a medium-low effect size (mean difference = -0.11; 95% CI -0.21, 0; P values for the placebo and the intervention groups were 0.02, and 0.042, respectively; P between groups = 0.003; d = 0.25). No significant changes were observed in other parameters. CONCLUSIONS Overall, 6 weeks of synbiotic supplementation in women with GDM resulted in a significant improvement in logTG/HDL-C, suggesting that synbiotics may have a beneficial role in reducing the risk of future CVDs associated with GDM. Nevertheless, more studies are needed to confirm the veracity of these results. Trial Registration IRCT201511183140N16 (December 29th, 2015).
