Programming Effect of the Parental Obesity on the Skeletal System of Offspring at Weaning Day

Abstract: Our study aimed to verify the hypothesis of the existence of a programming effect of parental obesity on the growth, development and mineralization of the skeletal system in female and male rat offspring on the day of weaning. The study began with the induction of obesity in female and male rats of the parental generation, using a high-energy diet (group F). Females and males of the control group received the standard diet (group S). After 90 days of dietary-induced obesity, the diet in group F was changed int… Show more

“…Indeed, that parental obesity has a programming effect on bone metabolism has been established. We demonstrated this in our earlier work, revealing that the offspring from obese parents are characterized by more intensive bone tissue formation, which results in stronger tissue mineralization and greater mechanical strength on the day of weaning (21 days of life) (Radzki et al, 2021). Therefore, the importance of nutrition during this period is not only reduced to its nutritional values, from which the body draws the necessary ingredients needed for proper growth and development, but also to its short-and long-term impact on health after growth (Dearden et al, 2018).…”

“…For example, having the same males equally represented in both pregnancy groups, aided in controlling for the influence of paternal genetics. This is important as previous research has demonstrated that the paternal genetics can influence the amount of mineral accrual in utero making it an important aspect to be controlled for ( 46 , 47 ). Furthermore, every dam in each group was mated with a different male reducing the genetic contribution that any one male may have within a group to give a more diverse and realistic group of litters.…”

“…Our previous studies have shown that parental obesity has a programming influence on skeletal metabolic processes in the offspring [ 14 ]. We also demonstrated that, on the day of weaning, the tibia of the female and male offspring, coming from obese parent, is characterized by stronger growth and more intense mineralization and, thus, greater mechanical endurance.…”

“…Bone samples were analyzed using a pQCT Stratec XCT Research SA Plus under control of Stratec software, version 6.20 C (Stratec Medizintechnik GmbH, Pforzheim, Germany). The trabecular and cortical compartments of isolated femora were measured in the distal metaphysis and middle of the shaft of column, respectively, as described previously [ 14 , 20 , 21 ].…”
