Recent studies have shown that overnutrition in the postnatal period lead obesity, cardiometabolic alterations, insulin resistance at long term. The objective of the study was to investigate the consequences of overnutrition lactation in the hearts of mice pups and adults throughout the development. To induce overnutrition during lactation, the litter size was reduced from three male pups at the third day, overnutrition group (OG). The control group (CG) remained with 9 pups per litter at lactation until weaning. We evaluated the body weight, epididymal and retroperitoneal fat, liver and cardiac morphology, ultrastructure of cardiomyocytes, left ventricle weight/ tibia length ratio, fasting glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, plasma insulin and HOMA-IR. The oxygen consumption of cardiac fibers was analyzed by high-resolution respirometry. We evaluated the enzymatic activity of PDH, CS and LDH and liver glycogen. Molecular biology, through: IRβ, IRS1, pIRS1, PTP1B, PI3K, Akt, pAkt, GLUT1, GLUT4, AMPKα, pAMPKα, HKII, CPT1, UCP2, FABPm, CD36, PGC-1α, PPARα, 4HNE, eletrons transport chain complex (I, II, III, IV and V), α-tubulin, GP91 and VADC. Differences between groups analyzed by Two-way ANOVA, significance level p <0.05. The OG had increased body weight, epididymal and retroperitoneal fat and total cholesterol in all ages. Fasting glucose, insulin, HOMA-IR and triglyceride levels at 21 and 90 days. Increased Lee index at 60 and 90 days. OG showed a decrease: the IRβ and GLUT4 at 21 and 60 days; IRβ increased to 90 days; increased IRS1, PTP1B, at 21 and 90 days and AKT, pAMPK/ AMPK and GLUT1 to 21 days; decrease of pIRS1/IRS1, PI3K, pAKT/ AKT at 21 and 90 days; HKII decreased at 21 days and increased at 60 and 90 days; PDH increased to 90 days; increased LDH at 21 days and reduced to 60 days; CS increased at 21 days and decreased at 60 and 90 days; increased oxidation of carbohydrates to 21 days and reduced to 90 days; decrease in fatty acid oxidation at 60 and 90 days. Additionally, increased mitochondrial uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation and ATP synthesis at 60 and 90 days. We observed decrease in CPT1 and increased UCP2 at 21 and 90 days. Decreased PGC-1α at 60 and 90 days and FABPm and CD36 in all ages. increased 4HNE at 21 and decrease at 90 days. However, we observed a decrease in the expression of mRNA for CPT1 to 21 and 60 days. Decrease in mRNA expression of PPARα and increased in mRNA expression of UCP2 at 21 days; decrease in mRNA expression of UCP2 at 60 days. Heart and liver morphological changes, as well as the ultrastructure of cardiomyocytes, in all ages, hepatic glycogen content at 21 and 90 days. We conclude that the overfeeding lactation led to obesity with increased glucose oxidation, changes in energy metabolism, associated with decreased insulin signaling, reduced mitochondrial oxidative capacity, leading to decoupling and changing the morphology and ultrastructure of cardiomyocytes from weaning to adulthood.
