A rapid microglial metabolic response controls metabolism and improves memory

ABSTRACT: Chronic high-fat feeding triggers widespread metabolic dysfunction including obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes. While these ultimate pathological states are relatively well understood, we have a limited understanding of how high-fat intake first triggers physiological changes. Here, we identify an acute microglial metabolic response that rapidly translates intake of high-fat diet (HFD) to a surprisingly beneficial effect on spatial and learning memory. Acute high-fat intake increases palmitate levels in cerebrospinal fluid and triggers a wave of microglial metabolic activation characterized by mitochondrial membrane activation, fission and metabolic skewing towards aerobic glycolysis. These effects are generalized, detectable in the hypothalamus, hippocampus, and cortex all within 1-3 days of HFD exposure. In vivo microglial ablation and conditional DRP1 deletion experiments show that the microglial metabolic response is necessary for the acute effects of HFD. 13C-tracing experiments reveal that in addition to processing via β-oxidation, microglia shunt a substantial fraction of palmitate towards anaplerosis and re-release of bioenergetic carbons into the extracellular milieu in the form of lactate, glutamate, succinate, and intriguingly, the neuro-protective metabolite itaconate. Together, these data identify microglial cells as a critical nutrient regulatory node in the brain, metabolizing away harmful fatty acids and liberating the same carbons instead as alternate bioenergetic and protective substrates. The data identify a surprisingly beneficial effect of short-term HFD on learning and memory.

Mouse adipose tissue under hypercaloric and isocaloric high-fat diet

Project description:The objective of the experiment was to dissect the effects of a high-fat diet on juvenile adipose tissue gene expression under conditions of excess calorie intake versus normal calorie intake in comparison to a standard low-fat diet. For this purpose juvenile mice were fed (A) a standard low-fat diet (CD), (B) a high-fat diet ad libitum (excess calorie intake) (HFD) and (C) a high-fat diet with calorie consumption restricted to the calorie consumption of the CD diet (R-HFD). RNA expression was profiled after 1 week of feeding in the periuterine fat depot.

High-fat diet fuels prostate cancer progression by rewiring the metabolome and amplifying the MYC program

Project description:Systemic metabolic alterations associated with increased consumption of saturated fat and obesity are linked with increased risk of prostate cancer progression and mortality but the molecular underpinnings of this association are poorly understood. Furthermore, the mechanisms by which metabolic rewiring alters the prostate cancer epigenome, the effector arm of intra- and extra-cellular signals, is equally nebulous. Here, we demonstrate, in a murine prostate cancer model, that high-fat diet (HFD) enhances the MYC transcriptional program through metabolic alterations that favour histone H4K20 hypomethylation at the promoter regions of MYC regulated genes, leading to a HFD-dependent phenotype characterized by increased cellular proliferation and tumour burden. Importantly, these results are recapitulated in prostate cancer patients, where increased saturated fat intake (SFI), but not monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fat intake, is also associated with an enhanced MYC transcriptional signature. Additionally, the SFI-induced MYC signature independently predicts prostate cancer progression and death. Finally, a dietary intervention consisting of switching from a high-fat to control diet, greatly attenuates the MYC transcriptional program. Our findings suggest that in primary prostate cancer, dietary saturated fat intake contributes to tumour progression by mimicking MYC over expression, setting the stage for therapeutic approaches involving changes to the diet.

KKTa_isolated glomeruli

Project description:High dietary fat intake is a major risk factor for the development of obesity, which is frequently associated with diabetes. To identify genes involved in diabetic nephropathy, GeneChip Expression Analysis was employed to survey the glomerular gene expression profile in diabetic KK/Ta mice fed with a high-fat diet (HFD). Isolated glomeruli from three 20-week-old KK/Ta mice fed with HFD (HFD group) or a normal fat diet (Chow group) were dissected. Total RNA was extracted and labeled for hybridization using the Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array. The gene expression profile was compared between the HFD and Chow groups using GeneSpring 7.3.1 software.

High-fat diet enhances food-seeking behavior via sensitizing hunger-sensing neurons in Drosophila II

Project description:The function of the central nervous system to regulate food intake can be disrupted by sustained metabolic challenges such as high-fat diet (HFD), which may contribute to the development of various metabolic disorders. In the present study, we found that HFD specifically enhanced food-seeking behavior in fruit flies without altering flies’ baseline metabolism and food consumption. Mechanistically, HFD increased the excitability of a small group of octopaminergic (OA) neurons to a hunger hormone named adipokinetic hormone (AKH), via increasing the accumulation of AKH receptor (AKHR) in these neurons. Upon HFD, excess dietary lipids are transported by a lipoprotein LTP to enter these OA+AKHR+ neurons via the cognate receptor LpR1, which in turn activated AMPK-TOR signaling and suppressed autophagy-dependent degradation of AKHR. Taken together, we uncovered a mechanism that linked HFD, AMPK-TOR signaling, neuronal autophagy, and food-seeking behavior, providing insight in the reshaping of neural circuitry under metabolic challenges and the progression of metabolic diseases.

Failure of diet-induced transcriptional adaptations in A30P alpha-synuclein transgenic mice

Project description:Nutritional influences have been discussed as potential modulators of Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathology. In animal models, a high fat diet (HFD) with greater intake of lipid-derived calories leads to accelerated disease onset and progression. The underlying molecular mechanisms of HFD-induced aggravated pathology, however, remain largely unclear. In this study, we aimed to further illuminate the effects of a fat-enriched diet in PD by examining the brainstem and hippocampal transcriptome of alpha synuclein transgenic mice exposed to a life-long HFD. Investigating individual transcript isoforms, differential gene expression, and co-expression clusters, we observed that transcriptional differences between wildtype and transgenic animals intensified in both regions under HFD. Both brainstem and hippocampus displayed strikingly similar transcriptomic perturbation patterns. Interestingly, expression differences resulted mainly from responses in wildtype animals to HFD, while these genes remained largely unchanged or were even slightly oppositely regulated by diet in transgenic animals. Genes and co-expressed gene groups exhibiting this dysregulation were linked to metabolic and mitochondrial pathways. Our findings propose failure of metabolic adaptions as potential explanation for accelerated disease unfolding under exposure to HFD. From the identified clusters of co-expressed genes, several candidates lend themselves to further functional investigations.

Transcriptomic profiles of white adipose tissue, brown adipose tissue and liver in rats fed either a high-fat diet or high-fat diet combined with ellagic acid treatment

Project description:In this study, we assessed the effect of acute oral administration of ellagic acid on metabolic parameters, oxidative stress and transcriptomic profiles in an inbred rodent model, carrying a variant of one of the metabolic syndrome-related genes, Zbtb16 (Zinc Finger And BTB Domain Containing 16). Over a period of three weeks, adult male rats of the SHR-Lx/k.o. strain were fed a high-fat diet accompanied with daily intragastric gavage of ellagic acid (50 mg/kg body weight; HFD-EA rats) or solvent only (HFD rats). At the end of the protocol, morphometric and metabolic parameters, including glucose tolerance test, serum lipid concentration and oxidative stress markers along with transcriptomic profile of liver, brown, and epididymal adipose tissues were assessed.

Diet-induced changes in tuft cell dynamics couple with type 2 immune response modulation and energy metabolism

Project description:Purpose: To examine the temporal changes in intestinal tuft cell number and activity in response to intake of a high fat diet and investigate the relation to whole-body energy metabolism and the immune phenotype of the small intestine and epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT). Methods: C57BL/6J mice were fed either a low fat reference diet (RFD, 10 % kcal fat) or a high fat diet (HFD, 60% kcal fat) for 9 or 22 weeks, followed by characterization of whole-body metabolic parameters, transcription profiles of sorted intestinal tuft cells, and immune phenotypes of tissues. Results: HFD feeding was associated with reductions in the overall number of small intestinal epithelial cells and tuft cells and reduced expression of the intestinal type 2 tuft cell markers Il25 and Tslp. Amongst >1,700 diet-regulated genes in tuft cells identified by RNA-seq, we observed an early association between body mass expansion and increased expression of Serpini1, which encodes the serine protease inhibitor neuroserpin. By contrast, tuft cell expression of genes encoding the GABA-receptors linked to reduced body mass gain. Although we observed a HFD-induced change in the eWAT inflammatory profile, the small intestinal lamina propria displayed a consistent non-inflammatory phenotype, and small intestinal tuft cell-derived transcripts were found to correlate with whole body metabolic features independently of intestinal immune cell involvement. Conclusion: Our These findings point to a role for small intestinal tuft cells in systems-wide metabolic regulation.

Comparative transcriptomic profiling of liver tissue from wild-type C57BL-6 mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) supplemented with the probiotic (P) Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765.

Project description:We used Affymetrix microarrays to investigate gene expression changes in the liver of wild-type C57BL-6 mice exposed to a high-fat diet that might have been caused by the oral consumption of the probiotic B. pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765. The aim of this work was to determine whether the daily intake (by oral gavage) of the probiotic (P) B. pseudocatenulatum for seven weeks exerted any modulatory effects, at the level of gene expression, in the liver of C57BL-6 male mice exposed to a high-fat diet (HFD). Male mice were randomly assigned to four experimental groups (n= 5 animals per group) as follows: (1) control group, fed a standard diet (SD); (2) obese group, fed a high-fat diet (HFD); (3) a group that received the SD and a daily dose of the probiotic (1M-CM-^W109 CFU B. pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765) (SD+P); and (d) an obese group that was fed the HFD and a daily dose of the probiotic (1M-CM-^W109 CFU B. pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765) (HFD+P). At the end of the experimental procedure total RNA was extracted from the liver to compare differential gene expression between the groups. Liver differential gene expression after 7 weeks of supplementation between: 1) the HFD group and the SD group (effects of the high-fat diet); 2) the HFD+P and the HFD (effects of the probiotic on the consumption of a high-fat diet) and 3) the SD+P group and the SD (direct effects of the probiotic on the liver of animals consuming a normal diet).
