Maternal obesity adversely impacts the in utero metabolic environment, but its effect on fetal hematopoiesis remains incompletely understood. During late development, the fetal bone marrow (FBM) becomes the major site where macrophages and B lymphocytes are produced via differentiation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Here, we analyzed the transcriptional landscape of FBM HSPCs at single-cell resolution in fetal macaques exposed to a maternal high-fat Western-style diet (WSD) or a low-fat control diet. We demonstrate that maternal WSD induces a proinflammatory response in FBM HSPCs and fetal macrophages. In addition, maternal WSD consumption suppresses the expression of B cell development genes and decreases the frequency of FBM B cells. Finally, maternal WSD leads to poor engraftment of fetal HSPCs in nonlethally irradiated immunodeficient NOD/SCID/IL2rγ mice. Collectively, these data demonstrate for the first time that maternal WSD impairs fetal HSPC differentiation and function in a translationally relevant nonhuman primate model.
母体肥胖会对宫内代谢环境产生不利影响,但它对胎儿造血的影响仍不完全清楚。在晚期发育过程中,胎儿骨髓(FBM)成为通过造血干细胞和祖细胞(HSPCs)分化产生巨噬细胞和 B 淋巴细胞的主要部位。在这里,我们在暴露于母体高脂肪西式饮食(WSD)或低脂对照饮食的胎儿猕猴中,以单细胞分辨率分析了 FBM HSPCs 的转录组景观。我们证明母体 WSD 会在 FBM HSPCs 和胎儿巨噬细胞中引发炎症反应。此外,母体 WSD 摄入会抑制 B 细胞发育基因的表达并降低 FBM B 细胞的频率。最后,母体 WSD 导致胎儿 HSPC 在非致死性辐照免疫缺陷 NOD/SCID/IL2rγ 小鼠中的植入不良。总的来说,这些数据首次表明母体 WSD 会损害转化相关非人类灵长类动物模型中胎儿 HSPC 的分化和功能。
