Lead (Pb) is widely used in industrial and daily-use consumer products. Early-life exposure may increase the risk of lead-related heart problems in childhood. However, the effects of early-life lead exposure on fetal heart development and long-term cardiac outcomes are unknown. In this study, pregnant ICR mice were exposed to lead acetate trihydrate (50 mg/kg/d) via oral gavage from gestation day 1.5 until offspring weaning. Thereafter, the second hit model was established, two groups of offspring (4 weeks old) were either administered sterile saline or Angiotensin II (Ang II) for 4 weeks until euthanasia. We investigated lead-induced offspring heart damage from embryonic period to adulthood by echocardiographic analysis, pathological H&E staining, and ultrastructural examination, as well as mitochondrial function detection. The results showed early-life lead exposure predisposed offspring mice to decreased ejection fraction, increased left ventricular volume, accompanied by hypertrophy and dilation, cardiomyocyte sarcomere dysplasia, abnormal mitochondrial structure, mitochondrial dysfunction, and decreased expression of key sarcomeric and mitochondrial genes, rendering them more susceptible to cardiac hypertrophy, vascular wall thickening, cardiac fibrosis, apoptosis, and heart failure induced by Ang II infusion. This study elucidates early-life low dose lead exposure compromises cardiac development and exacerbates second hit-induced cardiac pathological responses in adulthood, which furnishes crucial scientific evidence pertaining to the cardiac toxicity and risk evaluation associated with early-life exposure to lead.
