OBJECTIVE: Insulin resistance is highly associated with an adverse intrauterine environment. We previously reported that fetal rats exposed to angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) autoantibody (AT1-AA) displayed increased susceptibility to metabolic diseases during middle age. However, the timing of the onset of insulin resistance remains unknown. In this study, we examined the offspring of AT1-AA-positive rats, tracking the development of insulin resistance.
METHODS: Pregnant rats were intravenously injected with AT1-AA. Afterwards, we collected serum samples and liver tissues of the offspring at various stages, including gestation day 18, 3 weeks (weaning period), 18 weeks (young adulthood), and 48 weeks (middle age) after birth.
RESULTS: Compared with saline control group, hepatic vacuolar degeneration was visible in AT1-AA offspring rats as early as 3 weeks; hyperinsulinemia and impaired glucose tolerance occurred at 18 weeks of age, however, insulin resistance was not observed until 48 weeks. At 18 weeks we detected suppressed protein levels of insulin receptor (IR) but increased levels of IR substrate 1 (IRS1) in the liver of AT1-AA group rats. Interestingly, both IR and IRS1/2 were significantly decreased at 48 weeks. Liver proteomic analysis indicated that the differences in protein expression between the AT1-AA and control rats became more pronounced with age, particularly in terms of mitochondrial energy metabolism.
CONCLUSION: Rats exposed to AT1-AA in utero developed hyperinsulinemia from young adulthood which subsequently progressed to insulin resistance, and was linked with abnormal hepatic structure and impaired IR signaling. Additionally, dysregulation of energy metabolism may play a fundamental role in predisposing offspring to insulin resistance.
