Metabolic disorders can start in utero. Maternal transmission of metabolic phenotypes may increase the risks of adverse metabolic outcomes, such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); effective intervention is essential to prevent this. The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in fat storage, energy metabolism, and NAFLD. We investigated the therapeutic use of probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri and postbiotic butyrate gestation in the prevention of perinatal high-fat diet-induced programmed hepatic steatosis in the offspring of pregnant Sprague–Dawley rats who received regular chow or a high-fat (HF) diet 8 weeks before mating. L. reuteri or sodium butyrate was administered via oral gavage to the gestated rats until their sacrifice on day 21 of gestation. Both treatments improved liver steatosis in pregnant dams; L. reuteri had a superior effect. L. reuteri ameliorated obesity and altered the metabolic profiles of obese gravid dams. Maternal L. reuteri therapy prevented maternal HF diet-induced fetal liver steatosis, and reformed placental remodeling and oxidative injury. Probiotic therapy can restore lipid dysmetabolism in the fetal liver, modulate nutrient-sensing molecules in the placenta, and mediate the short-chain fatty acid signaling cascade. The therapeutic effects of maternal L. reuteri on maternal NAFLD and NAFLD reprogramming in offspring should be validated for further clinical translation.
