The impact of aging on beta-cell functionality and structural integrity under metabolic stress conditions in diabetes-prone and diabetes-resistant mice [ob].

ABSTRACT: Young and aged, diabetes-prone (NZO/HIBomDife) as well as diabetes-resistant (B6.V-Lep ob/ob) mice exhibited different islet functions and phenotypes in response to a carbohydrate-rich diet (CRD) subsequent to a high-fat, carbohydrate-free diet (HFD). To unravel the molecular basis underlying these alterations, a microarray-based transcriptome analysis of isolated pancreatic islets before and after 2 days of CRD feeding was performed. A high number of differentially expressed genes associated with redox homeostasis, in particular Thioredoxin-interacting protein (Txnip), as well as genes involved in cell cycle entry and cell proliferation, such as cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases and Mki67 were identified and associated with these changes. In addition, aged NZO/HIBomDife and age-matched, B6.V-Lep ob/ob mice revealed a high overlap of regulated genes, also linked to cell cycle progression under the same dietary regimen.

Project description:Although mitochondrial dysfunctions are implicated in the pathogenesis of obesity, the molecular mechanisms underlying obesity-related metabolic abnormalities are still not well established. To acquire a comprehensive picture of mitochondrial molecular changes within metabolically active tissues, we focused on hepatic and muscle whole cellular transcriptome and mitochondrial proteome alterations in 16 and 48 weeks old high fat diet (HFD)-feed wild type C57BL/6J and hyperphagic, genetically modified mice with leptin dysfunction (ob/ob and db/db). On transcriptome level, the most discriminative hepatic alterations distinguished between genetically modified and wild type mice, and between overnight fasted and non-fasted mice, while the muscle transcriptional alterations related mainly to the fasting state. The fractions of uniquely different proteins were consistently higher in hyperphagic than in HFD-fed mice and in fasted than non-fasted mice . The liver samples revealed overall higher number of differentially expressed RNAs and proteins than muscle samples. Differentially expressed genes and proteins in the liver, but not in the muscle, could be assigned to several Gene Ontology terms, including oxidation-reduction and several metabolic processes. Thus, altered expression of genes and proteins accompanied the state of obesity and was quantitatively different in the liver and muscle. Our parallel microarray- and quantitative mitochondrial mass spectrometry-based study performed on hepatic and muscle samples identified a higher number of differentially expressed proteins than any other studies investigating obesity-related proteomes. However, even with our integrated transcriptomic and proteomic approach still many details and dynamics of a chain of metabolic events leading to obesity-related mitochondrial dysfunctions remain unresolved . 48 samples each of liver and muscle (total samples: 96). Samples splitted equally according to 3 criterions: age (24 young/24 old), fasting status (24 fasted/24 non fasted), and strain+diet (12 each: B6.V-Lep ob/J+D12450B, B6.BKS(D)-Lep rdb/J+D12450B, C57BL/6J+D12450B, C57BL/6J+D12492). Overall 3 replicates for each strain+diet/age/fasting_status combination. Low fat diet = D12450B; high fat diet = D12492.

Project description:Gallstone disease is a major contributor to health care costs in the United States. Approximately 12 % of the U.S. population has gallstones. As a result, more than 700,000 cholecystectomies are performed in this country each year. Many of these patients are obese and have a positive family history; but surprisingly, little is known about the link between obesity, genetics and gallstone formation. Obese individuals have been shown to have supersaturated bile, larger gallbladder fasting volumes and impaired gallbladder emptying. We have recently demonstrated that leptin plays a role in gallbladder motility. In an effort to understand the genetic basis for these observations, we tested the hypothesis that leptin would alter gallbladder gene expression. Methods: Affymetrix oligonucleotide microarrays 430 2.0 were used to compare gallbladder gene expression profiles from 12 week old control saline-treated leptin-deficient (Lep ob) and from leptin-treated Lep ob female mice. Analyses were performed on pooled RNA (n=4) from the gallbladders of 12 saline-treated Lep ob mice and from 12 Lep ob mice which were administered daily IP 5 ug/g of recombinant murine leptin for 4 weeks. Resulting data were analyzed utilizing Gene Chip Operating Software or MAS 5.0. Results: Of the genes analyzed 314 were upregulated and 108 were downregulated by leptin administration. Numerous genes related to gallstone pathogenesis, gallbladder absorption/secretion, inflammatory cytokines, and insulin resistance were altered by leptin. Experiment Overall Design: Female B6.V-lepob obese mice (n=24) aged 7 weeks were obtained from The Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME). Upon arrival, mice were placed on a standard chow diet and were allowed to acclimate for 1 week before starting the experiment. For leptin treatments, mice received daily intraperitoneal injections of either recombinant mouse leptin (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) (n=12) at a dose of 5 µg/g body weight or with saline as a control (n=12) for 4 weeks. At 12 weeks of age, mice were fasted overnight with free access to water. The following morning the mice underwent cholecystectomy. Three gallbladders were pooled to create 4 pools in each treatment and total RNA was isolated. Affymetrix murine 430 2.0 arrays were utilized to examine altered gallbladder gene expression as a result of leptin administration. The resulting data was analyzed utlizing Gene Chip Operating Software or MAS 5.0.

Yandell, and Alan D. Attie*,Â§ ; Departments of * Biochemistry, and Statistics and Horticulture, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, 53706; and Affymetrix, Inc., Santa Clara, CA 95051 ; Communicated by Neal L. First, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, July 13, 2000 (received for review April 3, 2000) ; Obesity is strongly correlated with type 2 diabetes mellitus, a common disorder of glucose and lipid metabolism. Although adipocytes are critical in obesity, their role in diabetes has only recently been appreciated. We conducted studies by using DNA microarrays to identify differences in gene expression in adipose tissue from lean, obese, and obese-diabetic mice. The expression level of over 11,000 transcripts was analyzed, and 214 transcripts showed significant differences between lean and obese mice. Surprisingly, the expression of genes normally associated with adipocyte differentiation were down-regulated in obesity. Not all obese individuals will become diabetic; many remain normoglycemic despite profound obesity. Understanding the transition to obesity with concomitant diabetes will provide important clues to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. Therefore, we examined the levels of gene expression in adipose tissue from five groups of obese mice with varying degrees of hyperglycemia, and we identified 88 genes whose expression strongly correlated with diabetes severity. This group included many genes that are known to be involved in signal transduction and energy metabolism as well as genes not previously examined in the context of diabetes. Our data show that a decrease in expression of genes normally involved in adipogenesis is associated with obesity, and we further identify genes important for subsequent development of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Experiment Overall Design: For obesity study, lean samples include C57BL/6J lean, (C57BL/6J X BTBR) F1 and BTBR lean, obese sampples incluse C57BL/6J-ob/ob, (C57BL/6J X BTBR) F2-ob/ob and BTBR-ob/ob. All samples are subjected to Mu11K A and B arrays. Experiment Overall Design: For diabetes study, B6-ob/ob, (C57BL/6J X BTBR) F2-ob/ob low glucose, (C57BL/6J X BTBR) F2-ob/ob medium glucose, (C57BL/6J X BTBR) F2-ob/ob high glucose, and BTBR-ob/ob samples were analyzed for genes whose expression levels changes correlated with the plasma glucose levels in these mice. All samples are subjected to Mu11K A and B arrays.
