We report that a decrease in facilitative glucose
transporter (GLUT1) expression and reduced glucose transport trigger
apoptosis in the murine blastocyst. Inhibition of GLUT1
expression either by high glucose conditions or with antisense
oligodeoxynucleotides significantly lowers protein expression and
function of GLUT1 and as a result induces a high rate of apoptosis at
the blastocyst stage. Similar to wild-type mice, embryos from
streptozotocin-induced diabetic Bax / mice experienced
a significant decrease in glucose transport compared with embryos from
non-diabetic Bax / mice. However, despite this
decrease, these blastocysts demonstrate significantly fewer apoptotic
nuclei as compared with blastocysts from hyperglycemic wild-type mice.
This decrease in preimplantation apoptosis correlates with a decrease
in resorptions and malformations among the infants of the hyperglycemic
Bax / mice versus the Bax +/+
and +/ mice. These findings suggest that hyperglycemia by decreasing
glucose transport acts as a cell death signal to trigger a
BAX-dependent apoptotic cascade in the murine blastocyst. This work also supports the hypothesis that increased apoptosis at a
blastocyst stage because of maternal hyperglycemia may result in loss
of key progenitor cells and manifest as a resorption or malformation,
two adverse pregnancy outcomes more common in diabetic women.
