    Biology of Reproduction, 2026
    Maternal obesity (MO) predisposes male offspring to impaired fertility and premature aging of reproductive function. We hypothesized that postnatal high-fat diet (HF) from early childhood to adulthood (second hit) exacerbates MO programmed outcomes in male offspring reproductive capacity. Female Wistar rats ate chow (5%-fat (C)) or HF diet (25%-fat (MO)) from weaning through pregnancy and lactation. Male offspring were weaned on chow (C/C and MO/C) or HF diet (C/HF and MO/HF) and euthanized at postnatal-day 110. Scrotal temperature and epididymal fat were higher in C/HF and MO/HF. Testicles: malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations were increased in MO/HF, reactive oxygen species (ROS) rose in MO/C and MO/HF, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity increased in C/HF and MO/HF, and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity was higher in C/HF, MO/C, and MO/HF. Testicular mRNA expression of Nrf2, SOD-1, GPx-4, and Bax/Bcl2 ratio was lower in MO/HF. Sperm: MDA concentrations increased in MO/HF, ROS concentrations were elevated in MO/C and exacerbated in C/HF and MO/HF, SOD activity decreased in MO/HF. Sperm motility decreased, while sperm abnormalities increased in C/HF, MO/C, and MO/HF. DNA fragmentation: yellow-stained sperms (low-fragmentation) were increased in MO/C and exacerbated in C/HF and MO/HF; C/HF, MO/C, and MO/HF showed more orange-stained sperms (medium-fragmentation), but MO/HF had the highest increase. MO/HF exhibited an increase in red-stained sperms (high-fragmentation). MO/HF had a decreased fertility rate. MO combined with postnatal environmental factors, has a negative impact on offspring health and leads to greater reproductive alterations in comparison with unhealthy postnatal dietary habits or the programming caused by MO.
  • Celebrating 280 birth years of Lamarck: Revisiting his legacy in the concept of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease
    Elena Zambrano, Carlos A. Ibáñez
    Journal of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease, 2025
    In 2024, we are celebrating the 280th anniversary of Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, whose early theories on inheritance and environmental adaptation have advanced the foundational concepts of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD). This proposal aims to explore how some Lamarckian ideas align with contemporary understandings of how environmental factors in early life can affect health throughout an individual’s lifetime and across generations. This text not only honors an important historical milestone but also reflects on how a DOHaD notion might have been present since the earliest years of biological science. It bridges historical scientific thought with present-day scientific research.

  • High-fat diet consumption by male rat offspring of obese mothers exacerbates adipose tissue hypertrophy and metabolic alterations in adult life
    Guadalupe L. Rodríguez-González, Sergio De Los Santos, Dayana Méndez-Sánchez, Luis A. Reyes-Castro, Carlos A. Ibáñez, Patricia Canto, Elena Zambrano
    British Journal of Nutrition, 2023
    Obese mothers’ offspring develop obesity and metabolic alterations in adulthood. Poor postnatal dietary patterns also contribute to obesity and its comorbidities. We aimed to determine whether in obese mothers’ offspring an adverse postnatal environment, such as high-fat diet (HFD) consumption (second hit) exacerbates body fat accumulation, metabolic alterations and adipocyte size distribution. Female Wistar rats ate chow (C-5 %-fat) or HFD (maternal obesity (MO)-25 %-fat) from weaning until the end of lactation. Male offspring were weaned on either control (C/C and MO/C, maternal diet/offspring diet) or HFD (C/HF and MO/HF) diet. At 110 postnatal days, offspring were killed. Fat depots were excised to estimate adiposity index (AI). Serum glucose, triglyceride, leptin, insulin, insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), corticosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) were determined. Adipocyte size distribution was evaluated in retroperitoneal fat. Body weight was similar in C/C and MO/C but higher in C/HF and MO/HF. AI, leptin, insulin and HOMA-IR were higher in MO/C and C/HF v. C/C but lower than MO/HF. Glucose increased in MO/HF v. MO/C. C/HF and MO/C had higher triglyceride and corticosterone than C/C, but lower corticosterone than MO/HF. DHEA and the DHEA/corticosterone ratio were lower in C/HF and MO/C v. C/C, but higher than MO/HF. Small adipocyte proportion decreased while large adipocyte proportions increased in MO/C and C/HF v. C/C and exacerbated in MO/HF v. C/HF. Postnatal consumption of a HFD by the offspring of obese mothers exacerbates body fat accumulation as well as the decrease of small and the increase of large adipocytes, which leads to larger metabolic abnormalities.
  • Maternal Obesity Programs the Premature Aging of Rat Offspring Liver Mitochondrial Electron Transport Chain Genes in a Sex-Dependent Manner
    Consuelo Lomas-Soria, Guadalupe L. Rodríguez-González, Carlos A. Ibáñez, Luis A. Reyes-Castro, Peter W. Nathanielsz, Elena Zambrano
    Biology, 2023
    We investigated whether maternal obesity affects the hepatic mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC), sirtuins, and antioxidant enzymes in young (110 postnatal days (PND)) and old (650PND) male and female offspring in a sex- and age-related manner. Female Wistar rats ate a control (C) or high-fat (MO) diet from weaning, through pregnancy and lactation. After weaning, the offspring ate the C diet and were euthanized at 110 and 650PND. The livers were collected for RNA-seq and immunohistochemistry. Male offspring livers had more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) down-regulated by both MO and natural aging than females. C-650PND vs. C-110PND and MO-110PND vs. C-110PND comparisons revealed 1477 DEGs in common for males (premature aging by MO) and 35 DEGs for females. Analysis to identify KEGG pathways enriched from genes in common showed changes in 511 and 3 KEGG pathways in the male and female livers, respectively. Mitochondrial function pathways showed ETC-related gene down-regulation. All ETC complexes, sirtuin2, sirtuin3, sod-1, and catalase, exhibited gene down-regulation and decreased protein expression at young and old ages in MO males vs. C males; meanwhile, MO females down-regulated only at 650PND. Conclusions: MO accelerates the age-associated down-regulation of ETC pathway gene expression in male offspring livers, thereby causing sex-dependent oxidative stress, premature aging, and metabolic dysfunction.

    Nutrients, 2023
    We investigated whether excessive retroperitoneal adipose tissue (AT) expansion programmed by maternal obesity (MO) affects adipocyte size distribution and gene expression in relation to adipocyte proliferation and differentiation in male and female offspring (F1) from control (F1C) and obese (F1MO) mothers. Female Wistar rats (F0) ate a control or high-fat diet from weaning through pregnancy and lactation. F1 were weaned onto a control diet and euthanized at 110 postnatal days. Fat depots were weighed to estimate the total AT. Serum glucose, triglyceride, leptin, insulin, and the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) were determined. Adipocyte size and adipogenic gene expression were examined in retroperitoneal fat. Body weight, retroperitoneal AT and adipogenesis differed between male and female F1Cs. Retroperitoneal AT, glucose, triglyceride, insulin, HOMA-IR and leptin were higher in male and female F1MO vs. F1C. Small adipocytes were reduced in F1MO females and absent in F1MO males; large adipocytes were increased in F1MO males and females vs. F1C. Wnt, PI3K-Akt, and insulin signaling pathways in F1MO males and Egr2 in F1MO females were downregulated vs. F1C. MO induced metabolic dysfunction in F1 through different sex dimorphism mechanisms, including the decreased expression of pro-adipogenic genes and reduced insulin signaling in males and lipid mobilization-related genes in females.

    Journal of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease, 2022
    The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed several inequalities worldwide, including the populations' access to healthcare systems and economic differences that impact the access to vaccination, medical resources, and health care services. Scientific research activities were not an exception, such that scientific research was profoundly impacted globally. Research trainees and early career researchers (ECRs) are the life force of scientific discovery around the world, and their work and progress in research was dramatically affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. ECRs are a particularly vulnerable group as they are in a formative stage of their scientific careers, any disruptions during which is going to likely impact their lifelong career trajectory. To understand how COVID-19 impacted lives, career development plans, and research of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) ECRs, the International DOHaD ECR committee formed a special interest group comprising of ECR representatives of International DOHaD affiliated Societies/Chapters from around the world (Australia and New Zealand, Canada, French Speaking DOHaD, Japan, Latin America, Pakistan and USA). The anecdotal evidence summarized in this brief report, provide an overview of the findings of this special interest group, specifically on the impact of the evolving COVID-19 pandemic on daily research activities and its effects on career development plans of ECRs. We also discuss how our learnings from these shared experiences can strengthen collaborative work for the current and future generation of scientists.
