Protein-restricted diet during pregnancy after insemination alters behavioral phenotypes of the progeny

Abstract: BackgroundEpidemiological studies suggest that hyponutrition during the fetal period increases the risk of mental disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism-spectrum disorder, which has been experimentally supported using animal models. However, previous experimental hyponutrition or protein-restricted (PR) diets affected stages other than the fetal stage, such as formation of the egg before insemination, milk composition during lactation, and maternal nursing behavior.ResultsWe cond… Show more

“…This means that our brain circuitry is still programmed to eat more in times of food abundance preparing for periods of starvation ( 31 ). Recent genetic studies have focused on gene polymorphisms related to specific nutrients and obesity ( 34 37 ). This area of investigation has been called nutrigenetics and suggests that epigenetic factors influence the expression of predisposing genes in certain populations.…”

“…This finding is not particularly surprising given that the effects of exposure to PD on anxiety-like behavior have been equivocal across published studies. 30,33,7578 We did observe a significant diet-by-RIX effect on all 3 measures of anxiety-like behavior and stress response (Table 1). These data in combination with conflicting results in the literature support a hypothesis that the effects of exposure to PD on anxiety and stress response are dependent on genetic background.…”

“…Units used for calculations of the indices were in mg/dL for glucose and U/L for insulin. Using the data of DiOGenes [ 22 ], CORDIOPREV [ 23 ], and PhenFlex [ 24 , 25 ] studies, cut-off values for MISI were determined. These values were calculated and validated by using data of more than 1000 subjects with different health status: healthy subjects, subjects with prediabetes, and patients with undiagnosed and clinically diagnosed type 2 diabetes.…”
