项目摘要

Natural variations in mother-infant interaction have profound effects on offspring development and behavior. In particular, there is evidence for the influence of postpartum care on maternal behavior itself, such that low levels of maternal care are exhibited by females who received less care in infancy. This transmission of maternal behavior from mother to daughter has been previously associated with epigenetic regulation of estrogen receptor (ER) α in hypothalamic brain regions. The purpose of the proposed project is to explore these epigenetic effects in the context of reproductive behavior and develop convergent sources of evidence for the transgenerational influence of maternal care. To achieve this goal, the maternal regulation of social, sexual and maternal behavior will be explored in a rodent model. This will provide an experimental design for determining potential shifts in reproductive strategy in response to early environmental experiences. The reversibility of these maternal effects will be explored through pharmacological manipulation of DNA methylation within the promoter region of the ERα gene. The role of DNA methylation in the generational transmission of environmental experiences that occur beyond the postpartum period will also be investigated in response to gestational stress and juvenile exposure to differential levels of social interaction. Finally, ecologically valid paradigms will be developed in which transgenerational effects on reproductive behavior can be determined in a mouse model. These paradigms will involve 1) comparison of communally vs. non-communally reared offspring and grand-offspring, 2) caloric food restriction during lactation and 3) comparison of offspring born to either inexperienced or experienced mothers. Overall, this project will provide an innovative approach to both the study of inheritance and the role of epigenetic mechanisms in sustaining environmental effects within and across generations. Moreover, it will provide an experimental design for elucidating the occurrence of reproductive trade-offs in mammals.

母亲互动的自然变化对后代发展具有深远的影响和行为。特别是有证据表明产后护理对孕产妇的影响行为本身，使得较少收到的女性暴露了低水平的孕产妇护理婴儿期的护理。母亲从母亲到女儿的传播已经以前与下丘脑中雌激素受体（ER）α的表观遗传调节有关大脑区域。拟议项目的目的是探索这些表观遗传效应生殖行为的背景并发展了融合的证据来源孕产妇护理的跨代影响。为了实现这一目标，母亲的监管社交，性和产妇行为将在啮齿动物模型中探索。这将提供一个实验设计，用于确定生殖策略的潜在转移，以响应早期环境经验。这些遗产效应的可逆性将通过 ERα基因启动子区域内DNA甲基化的药理操作。 DNA甲基化在环境体验的世代传播中的作用在产后时期以外的情况也将根据妊娠应力进行研究少年暴露于社会互动的差异水平。最后，生态上有效将开发范式，在这种范式上，对复制行为的变革影响可以是在鼠标模型中确定。这些范式将涉及1）共同VS的比较。非常规饲养的后代和大弹簧，2）哺乳期间卡路里食品限制 3）比较没有经验或经验丰富的母亲出生的后代。全面的，该项目将为遗产研究和作用提供创新的方法在世代代内外维持环境影响方面的表观遗传机制。此外，它将提供实验设计，以阐明生殖的发生哺乳动物的权衡。
