Free fatty acid treatment of mouse preimplantation embryos demonstrates contrasting effects of palmitic acid and oleic acid on autophagy

Am J Physiol Cell Physiol

Treatment of mouse preimplantation embryos with elevated palmitic acid (PA) reduces blastocyst development, whereas cotreatment with PA and oleic acid (OA) together rescues blastocyst development to control frequencies.

Free fatty acid treatment of mouse preimplantation embryos demonstrates contrasting effects of palmitic acid and oleic acid on autophagy
Paper Abstract
Treatment of mouse preimplantation embryos with elevated palmitic acid (PA) reduces blastocyst development, whereas cotreatment with PA and oleic acid (OA) together rescues blastocyst development to control frequencies. To understand the mechanistic effects of PA and OA treatment on early mouse embryos, we investigated the effects of PA and OA, alone and in combination, on autophagy during preimplantation development in vitro. We hypothesized that PA would alter autophagic processes and that OA cotreatment would restore control levels of autophagy. Two-cell stage mouse embryos were placed into culture medium supplemented with 100 μM PA, 250 μM OA, 100 μM PA and 250 μM OA, or potassium simplex optimization media with amino acid (KSOMaa) medium alone (control) for 18-48 h. The results demonstrated that OA cotreatment slowed developmental progression after 30 h of cotreatment but restored control blastocyst frequencies by 48 h. PA treatment elevated light chain 3 (LC3)-II puncta and p62 levels per cell whereas OA cotreatment returned to control levels of autophagy by 48 h. Autophagic mechanisms are altered by nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) treatments during mouse preimplantation development in vitro, where PA elevates autophagosome formation and reduces autophagosome degradation levels, whereas cotreatment with OA reversed these PA effects. Autophagosome-lysosome colocalization only differed between PA and OA alone treatment groups. These findings advance our understanding of the effects of free fatty acid exposure on preimplantation development, and they uncover principles that may underlie the associations between elevated fatty acid levels and overall declines in reproductive fertility.
