Enterocyte Superoxide Dismutase 2 Deletion Drives Hyperinsulinemia and Obesity

ABSTRACT: Compelling evidence support an involvement of oxidative stress and intestinal inflammation as early events in the predisposition and development of obesity and its related comorbidities. Here we show that deficiency of the major mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) in the gastrointestinal tract drives spontaneous obesity. Intestinal epithelium-specific Sod2 ablation in mice induced adiposity, inflammation and insulin resistance via phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activation and increased synthesis of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid arachidonic acid. Remarkably, this obese and hyperinsulinemic phenotype was rescued when fed an essential fatty acid deficient diet, which abrogates de novo biosynthesis of arachidonic acid. Data from clinical samples revealed that the negative correlation between intestinal SOD2 mRNA levels and obesity features, such as body mass index and omega-6/omega-3 fatty acid ratio, appears to be conserved between mice and humans. Collectively, our findings suggest a role of intestinal SOD2 levels, PLA2 activity and arachidonic acid in obesity presenting new potential targets of therapeutic interest in the context of this metabolic disorder.

Expresion data for LNA, GLA and DGLA treated C. elegans

Project description:Bioactive compounds, including some fatty acids (FAs), can induce beneficial effects on body fat-content and metabolism. In this work, we have used C. elegans as a model to examine the effects of several FAs on body fat accumulation. Both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids induced a reduction of fat content in C. elegans, with linoleic, gamma-linolenic and dihomo-gamma-linolenic acids being the most effective ones. These three FAs are sequential metabolites in PUFA synthesis pathway and the effects seem to be primarily due to dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid, being independent of transformation into omega-3 or arachidonic acid. Gene expression analyses show that peroxisomal beta oxidation is the main mechanism involved in this fat-loss. All these results point out the importance of further analysis of the activity of these omega-6 FAs, due to their potential application in obesity and related diseases. In order to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the fat loss induced by the omega-6 FAs LNA, GLA and DGLA, we analyzed the whole-transcriptome expression profiling in response to LNA, GLA and DGLA treatments in wild-type worms using Affymetrix C. elegans expression arrays.

Omega-6 and omega-3 oxylipins are implicated in soybean oil-induced obesity

Project description:Soybean oil consumption is increasing worldwide and parallels the obesity epidemic in the U.S. Rich in unsaturated fats, especially linoleic acid, soybean oil is assumed to be healthy, and yet it induces obesity, diabetes, insulin resistance and fatty liver in mice. The genetically modified soybean oil Plenish came on the U.S. market in 2014: it is low in linoleic acid and similar to olive oil in fatty acid composition. Here we show that Plenish induces less obesity than conventional soybean oil: metabolomics, proteomics and a transgenic mouse model implicate oxylipin metabolites of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids (linoleic and α-linolenic acid, respectively), which are generated by target genes of nuclear receptor HNF4α. While Plenish induces less insulin resistance than conventional soybean oil, it results in hepatomegaly and liver dysfunction as does olive oil. Altering the fatty acid profile of soybeans could help reduce obesity but may also cause liver complications.

Transcription profiling of human prostate cancer cells with arachidonic acid reveals induction of 11 genes that are regulated by NFkappaB

Project description:Essential fatty acids (FA) are not only energy-rich molecules; they are also an important component of the membrane bilayer and recently have been implicated in induction of fatty acid synthase (FAS) and other genes. Using gene chip analysis, we have found that arachidonic acid (AA), an omega-6 fatty acid, induced 11 genes that are regulated by NFkappaB. We verified gene induction by omega-6 fatty acids including COX2, IKBA, NFKB, GMCSF, IL1B, CXCL1, TNFA, IL6, LTA, IL8, PPARG, and ICAM1 using qRTPCR. PGE2 synthesis was increased within 5min of addition of AA. Analysis of upstream signal transduction showed that within 5min of FA addition, phophatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) was significantly activated followed by activation of Akt at 30min. ERK1 and 2, p38, and SAPK/JNK were not phosphorylated after omega-6 FA addition. Thirty minutes after FA addition, we found a significant 3-fold increase in translocation of NFkappaB transcription factor to the nucleus. Addition of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) caused a decrease in cox-2 protein synthesis, PGE2 synthesis as well as inhibition of PI3K activation. We have previously shown that AA induced proliferation is also blocked (P<0.001) by PI3K inhibitor LY294002. LY294002 also significantly inhibited the AA induced gene expression of COX2, IL1B, GMCSF, and ICAM1. Taken together, the data suggests that AA via conversion to PGE2 plays an important role in stimulation of growth related genes and proliferation via PI3K signaling and NFkappaB translocation to the nucleus.

Next Generation Sequencing Analysis of Pparafl/fl and PparaΔIE intestinal transcriptomes

Project description:Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common chronic diseases globally and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis is its progressive stage with limited therapeutic options. Here a role for intestinal peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα)-fatty acid binding protein 1 (FABP1) in obesity-associated metabolic syndrome, fatty liver and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis via modulating dietary fat absorption was uncovered. Intestinal PPARα is highly activated accompanied by marked upregulation of FABP1 by high-fat diet (HFD) in mice and obese humans. Intestine-specific PPARα or FABP1 disruption in mice decreases HFD-induced obesity, fatty liver and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and intestinal PPARα disruption fails to further decrease obesity and NASH. Chemical PPARα antagonism improves metabolic disorders depending on the presence of intestinal PPARα or FABP1. Translationally, GW6471 decreases human PPARα-driven intestinal fatty acid uptake and therapeutically improves obesity in PPARA-humanized, but not Ppara-null, mice. These results suggest that intestinal PPARα-FABP1 axis could be a therapeutic target for NASH.

Effect of group X phospholipase A2 deletion in dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis modeled colon

Project description:Within the secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) family, group X sPLA2 (sPLA2-X) has the highest capacity to hydrolyze cellular membranes and has long been thought to promote inflammation by releasing arachidonic acid (AA), a precursor of pro-inflammatory eicosanoids. Unexpectedly, we found that transgenic mice globally overexpressing human sPLA2-X (PLA2G10-Tg) displayed striking immunosuppressive and lean phenotypes with lymphopenia and increased M2-like macrophages, accompanied by marked elevation of free omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and their metabolites. Studies using Pla2g10-deficient mice revealed that endogenous sPLA2-X, which is highly expressed in the colon epithelium and spermatozoa, mobilized omega-3 PUFAs or their metabolites to protect against dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis and to promote fertilization, respectively. In colitis, sPLA2-X deficiency increased colorectal expression of Th17 cytokines, and omega-3 PUFAs attenuated their production by lamina propria cells partly through the fatty acid receptor GPR120. In comparison, cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2alpha) protects from colitis by mobilizing omega-6 AA metabolites including prostaglandin E2. Thus, our results underscore a previously unrecognized role of sPLA2-X as an omega-3 PUFA mobilizer in vivo, segregated mobilization of omega-3 and omega-6 PUFA metabolites by sPLA2-X and cPLA2alpha, respectively, in protection against colitis, and the novel role of a particular sPLA2-X-driven PUFA in fertilization.

SO018 liver gene expression

Project description:Identification of the effect of transgenerationnal supplementation with omega 3 fatty acids on the resistance to a diet induced obesity challenge Although several lines of evidence suggested that omega 3 fatty acids (FA) may protect from obesity and its related disorders by modulation of the metabolism of insulin-responsive organs, the long term effect remains unknown. Preservation of the liver metabolic homeostasis could be a key mediator of omega 3 FA effects. The impact of transgenerational intake of long chain omega 3 PUFA on hepatic adaptations during a nutritional challenge was investigated in young C57Bl6J male mice.
