RNA analysis of diet-induced sarcopenic obesity in rats

Qian-qian Sun et al.

Summary: Obesity is a risk factor for sarcopenia, and sarcopenic obesity (SO), a new category of obesity, is a high-risk geriatric syndrome. However, the molecular pathomechanisms of SO are still poorly understood. In this study, a rat model of SO was established by feeding male Sprague-Dawley rats a high-fat diet for 28 weeks. RNA-seq analysis revealed that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and alternative splicing events mainly involved inflammatory and immune responses, muscle and fat cell differentiation, and antigen processing. The mef2c gene, a key regulator of skeletal muscle, showed down-regulated expression and significant alternative splicing in HFD-induced SO. GO analysis identified alternative genes targeted by mef2c to be enriched in the regulation of RNA polymerase II promoter. These findings provide a starting point for understanding the pathway and mechanism of sarcopenic obesity in aging rats.

Exposure to a high-fat diet during intrauterine life and post-birth causes cardiac histomorphometric changes in rats: A systematic review

Djane A. Espirito-Santo et al.

Summary: This study systematically reviewed the studies on cardiac histomorphometric changes in rodents exposed to a high-fat diet. The findings showed that maternal exposure to a high-fat diet during fetal development can cause cardiac hypertrophy in offspring. The variations in dietary fat content and duration of exposure suggest a high sensitivity of the cardiac structure to high-fat diets.

miR-18a-5p Is Involved in the Developmental Origin of Prostate Cancer in Maternally Malnourished Offspring Rats: A DOHaD Approach

Sergio Alexandre Alcantara Santos et al.

Summary: This study describes the deregulation of two miRNAs in the prostate of rats born to dams fed with a low protein diet. Integrative analysis of transcriptomic and proteomic data reveals potential molecular mechanisms involved in prostate cancer. Imbalance of the testosterone/estrogen ratio in the offspring rats highlights the importance of improving maternal healthcare.

Increased oxidative stress and cancer biomarkers in the ventral prostate of older rats submitted to maternal malnutrition

Luiz M. F. Portela et al.

Summary: The study found that protein malnutrition in dams during gestation and lactation led to decreased testosterone levels and increased estrogen levels in elderly offspring, along with increased oxidative stress and potential promotion of prostate carcinogenesis.

Cholesterol Contributes to Male Sex Differentiation Through Its Developmental Role in Androgen Synthesis and Hedgehog Signaling

Anbarasi Kothandapani et al.

Summary: This article discusses the crucial role of cholesterol during fetal masculinization, particularly in androgen synthesis and HH signaling activity, emphasizing its functional importance in promoting male sex differentiation. Perturbations in cholesterol synthesis may lead to developmental defects such as VSD, similar to those caused by disrupted androgen or HH signaling pathways.
