Effects of Bacterial CLPB Protein Fragments on Food Intake and PYY Secretion.

ABSTRACT: CLPB (Caseinolytic peptidase B) protein is a conformational mimetic of α-MSH, an anorectic hormone. Previous in vivo studies have already shown the potential effect of CLPB protein on food intake and on the production of peptide YY (PYY) by injection of E. coli wild type (WT) or E. coli ΔClpB. However, until now, no study has shown its direct effect on food intake. Furthermore, this protein can fragment naturally. Therefore, the aim of this study was (i) to evaluate the in vitro effects of CLPB fragments on PYY production; and (ii) to test the in vivo effects of a CLPB fragment sharing molecular mimicry with α-MSH (CLPB25) compared to natural fragments of the CLPB protein (CLPB96). To do that, a primary culture of intestinal mucosal cells from male Sprague-Dawley rats was incubated with proteins extracted from E. coli WT and ΔCLPB after fragmentation with trypsin or after a heat treatment of the CLPB protein. PYY secretion was measured by ELISA. CLPB fragments were analyzed by Western Blot using anti-α-MSH antibodies. In vivo effects of the CLPB protein on food intake were evaluated by intraperitoneal injections in male C57Bl/6 and ob/ob mice using the BioDAQ® system. The natural CLPB96 fragmentation increased PYY production in vitro and significantly decreased cumulative food intake from 2 h in C57Bl/6 and ob/ob mice on the contrary to CLPB25. Therefore, the anorexigenic effect of CLPB is likely the consequence of enhanced PYY secretion.

Project description:ObjectiveIn the small intestine, the products of digestion of dietary triacylglycerol (TAG), fatty acids (FA) and monoacylglycerol, are taken up by absorptive cells, enterocytes, for systemic energy delivery. These digestion products can also bind receptors on endocrine cells to stimulate the release of hormones capable of influencing systemic energy metabolism. The initial phase of intestinal FA absorption involves the acylation of FAs to acyl-CoA by the acyl-CoA long chain synthetase (ACSL) enzymes. ACSL5 is abundantly expressed in the small intestinal epithelium where it is the major ACSL isoform, contributing approximately 80% of total ACSL activity. In mice with whole body deficiency of ACSL5, the rate of dietary fat absorption is reduced and energy expenditure is increased. However, the mechanisms by which intestinal ACSL5 contributes to intestinal FA metabolism, enteroendocrine signaling, and regulation of energy expenditure remain undefined. Here, we test the hypothesis that intestinal ACSL5 regulates energy metabolism by influencing dietary fat absorption and enteroendocrine signaling.MethodsTo explore the role of intestinal ACSL5 in energy balance and intestinal dietary fat absorption, a novel mouse model of intestine specific ACSL5 deficiency (ACSL5IKO) was generated by breeding ACSL5 floxed (ACSL5loxP/loxP) to mice harboring the tamoxifen inducible, villin-Cre recombinase. ACSL5IKO and control, ACSL5loxP/loxP mice were fed chow (low in fat) or a 60% high fat diet (HFD), and metabolic phenotyping was performed including, body weight, body composition, insulin and glucose tolerance tests, energy expenditure, physical activity, and food intake studies. Pair-feeding studies were performed to determine the role of food intake in regulating development of obesity. Studies of dietary fat absorption, fecal lipid excretion, intestinal mucosal FA content, and circulating levels of glucagon like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and peptide YY (PYY) in response to a TAG challenge were performed. Treatment with a GLP-1 receptor antagonist was performed to determine the contribution of GLP-1 to acute regulation of food intake.ResultsWe found that ACSL5IKO mice experienced rapid and sustained protection from body weight and fat mass accumulation during HFD feeding. While intestine specific deficiency of ACSL5 delayed gastric emptying and reduced dietary fat secretion, it did not result in increased excretion of dietary lipid in feces. Energy expenditure and physical activity were not increased in ACSL5IKO mice. Mice deficient in intestinal ACSL5 display significantly reduced energy intake during HFD, but not chow feeding. When HFD intake of control mice was matched to ACSL5IKO during pair-feeding studies, no differences in body weight or fat mass gain were observed between groups. Postprandial GLP-1 and PYY were significantly elevated in ACSL5IKO mice secondary to increased FA content in the distal small intestine. Blockade of GLP-1 signaling by administration of a long-acting GLP-1 receptor antagonist partially restored HFD intake of ACSL5IKO.ConclusionsThese data indicate that intestinal ACSL5 serves as a critical regulator of energy balance, protecting mice from diet-induced obesity exclusively by increasing satiety and reducing food intake during HFD feeding. The reduction in food intake observed in ACSL5IKO mice is driven, in part, by increased postprandial GLP-1 and PYY secretion. These effects are only observed during HFD feeding, suggesting that altered processing of dietary fat following intestinal ACSL5 ablation contributes to GLP-1 and PYY mediated increases in satiety.

Project description:Monoclonal antibodies, antibody fragments and fusion proteins derived thereof have revolutionized the practice of medicine. Major challenges faced by the biopharmaceutical industry are however high production costs, long processing times and low productivities associated with their production in mammalian cell lines. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a well-characterized eukaryotic cell factory possessing the capacity of post-translational modifications, has been industrially exploited as a secretion host for production of a range of products, including pharmaceuticals. However, due to the incompatible surface glycosylation, few antibody molecules have been functionally expressed in S. cerevisiae. Here, three non-glycosylated antibody fragments from human and the Camelidae family were chosen for expression in a S. cerevisiae strain (HA) previously evolved for high α-amylase secretion. These included the Fab fragment Ranibizumab (Ran), the scFv peptide Pexelizumab (Pex), and a nanobody consisting of a single V-type domain (Nan). Both secretion and biological activities of the antibody fragments were confirmed. In addition, the secretion level of each protein was compared in the wild type (LA) and two evolved strains (HA and MA) with different secretory capacities. We found that the secretion of Ran and Nan was positively correlated with the strains' secretory capacity, while Pex was most efficiently secreted in the parental strain. To investigate the mechanisms for different secretion abilities in these selected yeast strains for the different antibody fragments, RNA-seq analysis was performed. The results showed that several bioprocesses were significantly enriched for differentially expressed genes when comparing the enriched terms between HA.Nan vs. LA.Nan and HA.Pex vs. LA.Pex, including amino acid metabolism, protein synthesis, cell cycle and others, which indicates that there are unique physiological needs for each antibody fragment secretion.
