The Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) concept has been established for three decades. Many studies have shown that, besides pregnancy, other plastic phases (mainly preconception, lactation, and infancy-adolescence) are also sensitive to environmental changes, including nutritional conditions, that can program health or disease later in life. This study compared the susceptibility of the gestation, lactation and adolescence to a high-fat diet (HFD) intervention to program rats into autonomic nervous system imbalance and cardiometabolic dysfunction in adulthood.

The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) exerts important catabolic peripheral effects and influences autonomic nervous system (ANS)-mediated processes. Impaired negative-feedback control or reduced HPA axis sensitivity and altered ANS activity appear to be associated with the development and maintenance of obesity. In the present study, we examined the hypothesis that the central HPA axis is dysregulated favouring ANS disbalance in monosodium l-glutamate (MSG)-induced rat obesity.
