Maternal infection during pregnancy is associated with adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. Our study used a multi-omics profiling method to explore the proteome and metabolome alteration in early embryonic development after COVID-19 infection. A total of 30 chorionic tissues after artificial abortion (15 infection and 15 no-infection samples) were collected, and the UHPLC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS were applied in the present study. As a result, 311 significantly differentially expressed proteins were identified. The function annotations revealed that the thermogenesis pathway is the most significantly enriched signaling pathway; PRKAG2, IGF1R, and RPS6KB2 were identified as the hub proteins. There were 359 metabolites significantly altered after infection. The functional annotations revealed that amino acid metabolism was significantly affected, especially beta-alanine metabolism, glutamate metabolism, and histidine metabolism pathways. The metabolites in ovarian steroidogenesis showed a down-regulating trend in the infection group. Finally, we combined the results of proteins and metabolomics analysis. The biosynthesis of the cofactors pathway was identified as significantly enriched in both proteomics and metabolomics datasets.

Because stress hypersensitivity can impact dystrophic phenotypes, this research aimed to understand the peripheral pathways driving this inter-individual variability. Male and female <em>mdx</em> mice were phenotypically stratified into “stress-resistant” or “stress-sensitive” groups based on their response to two laboratory stressors. Quantitative proteomics of striated muscle revealed that stress-resistant females were most dissimilar from all other groups, with over 250 proteins differentially regulated with stress hypersensitivity. Males showed less proteomic variation with stress hypersensitivity; however, these changes were associated with pathway enrichment. In the heart, stress-sensitive males had significant enrichment of pathways related to mitochondrial ATP synthesis, suggesting that increased cardio-metabolic capacity is associated with stress hypersensitivity in male <em>mdx</em> mice. In both sexes, stress hypersensitivity was associated with greater expression of beta-actin-like protein 2, indicative of altered cytoskeletal organisation. Despite identifying proteomic signatures associated with stress hypersensitivity, these did not correlate with differences in the serum metabolome acutely after a stressor.
