Abstract [en]

A small litter (SL) model was used to determine how neonatal overfeeding affects the homeostatic control of food intake in male rats at weaning and postnatal day (PND) 90. At PND4, litters were reduced to small (4 pups/dam) or normal (10 pups/dam) litters. At weaning, SL rats showed higher body weight and characteristic features of the metabolic syndrome. Gene expression of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), cocaine and amphetamine regulated transcript, neuropeptide Y (NPY) and leptin and ghrelin (GHSR) receptors were increased and POMC promoter was hypomethylated in arcuate nucleus, indicating that the early development of obesity may involve the GHSR/NPY system and changes in POMC methylation state. At PND90, body weight, metabolic parameters and gene expression were restored; however, POMC methylation state remained altered. This work provides insight into the effects of neonatal overfeeding, showing the importance of developmental plasticity in restoring early changes in central pathways involved in metabolic programming.
