Reduction of intestinal RIPK1 ameliorates HFD-induced metabolic disorders in female mice.

ABSTRACT: In modern society, excessive nutrient intake from food is a major factor contributing to the development of a series of metabolic disorders and cardiovascular diseases. Further investigation of the mechanisms underlying nutrient absorption in the intestine will help to better understand and develop preventive or therapeutic strategies. In this study, using receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (Ripk1) intestine-specific heterozygous knockout mice (Ripk1 ^IEC+/-) and high-fat diet (HFD)-feeding mouse model, we report that HFD-induced shift in the transcriptional profile of the ileum toward that of the jejunum, characterized by increased expression of jejunal feature genes in the ileum, are attenuated in Ripk1 ^IEC+/- female mice, but not in males.
