Early life risk and resiliency factors and their influences on developmental outcomes and disease pathways: a rapid evidence review of systematic reviews and meta-analyses

Summary: This study conducted a Rapid Evidence Review within the DOHaD framework, finding that the majority of DOHaD research data come from high-income countries, with studies examining social determinants of health and paternal influences being underrepresented. Only 23% of the articles explored resiliency factors.

Nanoparticle-encapsulated antioxidant improves placental mitochondrial function in a sexually dimorphic manner in a rat model of prenatal hypoxia

Esha Ganguly, Raven Kirschenman, Floor Spaans, Claudia D. Holody, Thomas E. J. Phillips, C. Patrick Case, Christy-Lynn M. Cooke, Michael P. Murphy, Helene Lemieux, Sandra T. Davidge

Summary: Complications associated with prenatal hypoxia can lead to increased placental oxidative stress, impacting fetal development. A placenta-targeted treatment strategy using nMitoQ was found to improve placental mitochondrial function in both male and female placentae exposed to prenatal hypoxia. This strategy could potentially enhance placental function in complicated pregnancies by reducing oxidative stress.

Preeclampsia is not associated with elevated muscle sympathetic reactivity

Laura Marcela Reyes, Charlotte W. Usselman, Rshmi Khurana, Radha S. Chari, Michael K. Stickland, Sandra T. Davidge, Colleen G. Julian, Craig D. Steinback, Margie H. Davenport

Summary: This study found that women with preeclampsia had higher baseline mean arterial pressure, noradrenaline concentrations, and MSNA occurrence probability compared to controls, but no significant difference in baseline MSNA levels between the two groups. The chemoreflex does not contribute to increased MSNA in women with preeclampsia.

Placental treatment improves cardiac tolerance to ischemia/reperfusion insult in adult male and female offspring exposed to prenatal hypoxia

Nataliia Hula, Floor Spaans, Jennie Vu, Anita Quon, Raven Kirschenman, Christy-Lynn M. Cooke, Tom J. Phillips, C. Patrick Case, Sandra T. Davidge

Summary: Offspring born from pregnancies complicated by prenatal hypoxia are at higher risk of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. Cardiac tolerance to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) insult is decreased in both male and female offspring exposed to hypoxia during fetal life, but can be improved by maternal treatment with nMitoQ. The molecular mechanisms underlying the improved cardiac tolerance to I/R may involve changes in the levels/phosphorylation of proteins important for intracellular Ca2+ cycling.

Summary: The study protocol describes a comprehensive intervention to reduce non-communicable disease risks in children through a village-based cluster randomised design in rural India. The multifaceted intervention includes measures to optimize nutrition, parenting programme, lifestyle behavior change intervention, and environmental pollution reduction. The study will collect various biospecimens to assess intervention effects and conduct intention-to-treat analysis and process and economic evaluations.

Programming of weight and obesity across the lifecourse by the maternal metabolic exposome: A systematic review

Jamie Strain, Floor Spaans, Mohamed Serhan, Sandra T. Davidge, Kristin L. Connor

Summary: Exposome research aims to understand the various environmental exposures that impact human health, particularly the mechanism behind obesity. Maternal metabolic exposome and early environmental exposures increase the risk of offspring obesity through mechanisms such as epigenetic modifications, altered placental function, changes in gut microbiome and breast milk composition, and metabolic inflammation affecting development of the central appetite system, adipose tissues, and liver.

Altered Vascular Adaptations to Pregnancy in a Rat Model of Advanced Maternal Age

Mazhar Pasha, Amy L. Wooldridge, Raven Kirschenman, Floor Spaans, Sandra T. Davidge, Christy-Lynn M. Cooke

Summary: The study found that advanced maternal age is associated with heightened blood pressure in non-pregnant rats, and different responses in endothelium-dependent relaxation to vasodilators and big endothelin-1, indicating compensatory mechanisms in vascular function in aged rats.

The Long-Term Effects of Prenatal Hypoxia on Coronary Artery Function of the Male and Female Offspring

Nataliia Hula, Ricky Liu, Floor Spaans, Mazhar Pasha, Anita Quon, Raven Kirschenman, Christy-Lynn M. Cooke, Sandra T. T. Davidge

Summary: Prenatal hypoxia predisposes offspring to cardiovascular dysfunction in adulthood, impairing endothelium-dependent vasodilation and increasing PGHS-dependent vasoconstriction. Additionally, prenatal hypoxia enhances the contribution of endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization to coronary artery vasodilation.

Sex-Specific Effects of Prenatal Hypoxia and a Placental Antioxidant Treatment on Cardiac Mitochondrial Function in the Young Adult Offspring

Paulami Chatterjee, Claudia D. Holody, Raven Kirschenman, Murilo E. Graton, Floor Spaans, Tom J. Phillips, C. Patrick Case, Stephane L. Bourque, Helene Lemieux, Sandra T. Davidge

Summary: Prenatal hypoxia impairs cardiac mitochondrial function in adult female offspring, but this can be improved with prenatal treatment using a nanoparticle-encapsulated mitochondrial antioxidant. The study found that prenatal hypoxia did not affect cardiac mitochondrial function in male offspring, while it decreased the capacity of certain mitochondrial pathways in females. However, treatment with nMitoQ increased respiratory coupling efficiency in female offspring exposed to prenatal hypoxia. This suggests that targeting placental oxidative stress in prenatal hypoxia may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in adult offspring by improving cardiac mitochondrial function, specifically in females.

Summary: The study revealed that children of diabetic mothers continue to exhibit interventricular septal thickening and increased aortic stiffness in early childhood, which is correlated with maternal blood sugar control. Compared to children from healthy pregnancies, the offspring of diabetic mothers show significant cardiovascular abnormalities.
