Fucoidan alleviates high-fat diet-induced dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis in ApoEshl mice deficient in apolipoprotein E expression

ABSTRACT: Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweeds, possesses many biological activities including anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities. We aimed to investigate the protective effects of fucoidan on dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice (ApoEshl mice) and to elucidate its molecular targets in the liver by using a transcriptomic approach. For 12 weeks, ApoEshl mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) supplemented with either 1% or 5% fucoidan. Fucoidan supplementation significantly reduced tissue weight (liver and white adipose tissue), blood lipid, total-cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), non-high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (Non-HDL-C), and glucose levels in HFD-fed ApoEshl mice but increased plasma lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity and HDL-C levels. Fucoidan also reduced hepatic steatosis levels (liver size, TC and TG levels, and lipid peroxidation) and increased white adipose tissue LPL activity. DNA microarray analysis and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction demonstrated differential expression of genes encoding proteins involved in lipid metabolism, energy homeostasis, and insulin sensitivity, by activating Ppara and inactivating Srebf1. Fucoidan supplementation markedly reduced the thickness of the lipid-rich plaque, lipid peroxidation, and foaming macrophage accumulation in the aorta in HFD-fed ApoEshl mice. Thus, fucoidan supplementation appears to have anti-dyslipidemic and anti-atherosclerotic effects by inducing LPL activity and inhibiting the effects of inflammation and oxidative stress in HFD-fed ApoEshl mice.

Pro-inflammatory remodeling of high density lipoprotein (HDL) precedes development of dyslipidemia and hepatic steatosis upon exposure to four weeks of high fat diet

Project description:Long-term high fat feeding leads to hepatic steatosis, dyslipidemia, and a pro-inflammatory state. In a previous study, we observed this dysregulated metabolic phenotype when C57BL/6 mice were fed a high fat diet (HFD) for sixteen weeks. Additionally, a five-fold increase in liver gene expression of serum amyloid A-1 (SAA-1), an acute phase response protein that associates with high density lipoprotein (HDL), was observed. Inflammation induced changes composition may alter HDL functions, including anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and reverse cholesterol transport properties. Diet-induced onset and progression of HDL dysfunction is poorly understood. To examine the relationship between high fat diet and HDL dysfunction, we performed a short-term diet study. Four-week high fat feeding caused an increase in total plasma cholesterol compared with mice fed normal control diet (ND). No change in plasma triglycerides or development of hepatic steatosis was observed. These mice did however show evidence for increase in acute phase reactants, with a 3.25-fold increase in SAA-1 expression in liver. Heavy water labelling was used to determine the turnover rates of proteins associated with HDL. High fat diet resulted in increased fractional catabolic rate (HFD vs ND) of several acute phase response proteins involved ininnate immunity , including – Complement C3 (7.06 ± 0.99 vs 5.20 ± 0.56 %/h, p < 0.005), complement factor B (6.17 ± 0.59 vs 5.09 ± 0.87 %/h, p < 0.05), complement Factor H (4.16 ± 0.41 vs 3.56 ± 0.36 %/h, p < 0.05), and Complement factor I (3.50 ± 0.26 vs 2.75 ± 0.14 %/h, p < 0.005). Our findings suggest that early immune response-induced inflammatory remodeling of HDL precedes the diet-induced steatosis and dyslipidemia. Early HDL dysfunction reflected on impaired reverse cholesterol transport likely results in increase in plasma cholesterol in the absence of other lipid abnormalities.

Evaluation of the physiological property of D-allulose on obesity and its comorbidities in diet-induced obese mice based on mRNA-seq analysis

Project description:ackground/Objectives: The aim of the current study was to elucidate the effects of long-term supplementation with D-allulose on obesity and associated comorbidities by analyzing transcriptional and metabolic responses. Subjects/Methods: C57BL/6J mice were divided into three groups and fed a normal diet, high-fat diet (HFD), or high-fat + 5% (w/w) D-allulose diet for 16 weeks. Results: Body weight and body fat mass were significantly decreased in HFD-fed with D-allulose supplemented mice and their levels were similar to that of the normal diet. Also, major symptoms of obesity, such as high plasma lipid profiles and cytokine levels, were attenuated by D-allulose supplementation. D-allulose supplement induced the alteration of mRNA expression in epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT) and hepatic tissue. D-allulose normalized mRNA expression related lipid metabolism in eWAT and hepatic tissue. In Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway mapper analyses, D-allulose supplementation were down regulated the “cytokine-cytokinereceptor interaction”, “chemokinesignaling pathway”, “MAPK signaling pathway”and“toll-like receptor signaling pathway” in eWAT and hepatic tissue.

Folic acid supplementation alters the DNA methylation profile and improves insulin resistance in high-fat-diet-fed mice

Project description:Folic acid (FA) supplementation may protect from obesity and insulin resistance, the effects and mechanism of FA on chronic high-fat-diet-induced obesity-related metabolic disorders are not well elucidated. We adopted a genome-wide approach to directly examine whether FA supplementation affects the DNA methylation profile of mouse adipose tissue and identify the functional consequences of these changes. Mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD), normal diet (ND) or an HFD supplemented with folic acid (20 μg/ml in drinking water) for 10 weeks, epididymal fat was harvested, and genome-wide DNA methylation analyses were performed using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeDIP-seq). Mice exposed to the HFD expanded their adipose mass, which was accompanied by a significant increase in circulating glucose and insulin levels. FA supplementation reduced the fat mass and serum glucose levels and improved insulin resistance in HFD-fed mice. MeDIP-seq revealed distribution of differentially methylated regions (DMRs) throughout the adipocyte genome, with more hypermethylated regions in HFD mice. Methylome profiling identified DMRs associated with 3787 annotated genes from HFD mice in response to FA supplementation. Pathway analyses showed novel DNA methylation changes in adipose genes associated with insulin secretion, pancreatic secretion and type 2 diabetes. The differential DNA methylation corresponded to changes in the adipose tissue gene expression of Adcy3 and Rapgef4 in mice exposed to a diet containing FA. FA supplementation improved insulin resistance, decreased the fat mass, and induced DNA methylation and gene expression changes in genes associated with obesity and insulin secretion in obese mice fed a HFD.

Anti-obesity effect of radix Angelica sinensis and candidate causative genes in transcriptome analyses of adipose tissues in high-fat diet-induced mice

Project description:We have previously reported that radix Angelica sinensis (RAS) suppressed body weight and altered FTO expression in mice with high fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity. In the present study we performed RNA sequencing-mediated transcriptome analysis to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-obesogenic effects of RAS in mice. The results revealed that 36 differentially-expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between the RAS supplementation group (DH) and control group (HC). These 36 DEGs were clustered into 297 functional gene ontology (GO) categories, among which several GO annotations and signaling pathways were associated with lipid homeostasis. Six out of the 36 DEGs were identified to be involved in lipid metabolism, with the APOA2 gene a potential anti-obesogenic influence. The expression pattern revealed by RNA-Seq was identical to the results of quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Therefore, RAS supplementation in HFD-induced obese mice was associated with an anti-obesogenic global transcriptomic response. This study provides insight into potential applications of RAS in obesity therapy.

Proteomics reveals PFOS-induced alteration of lipid utilization and xenobiotic metabolism in a model of PFOS-augmented diet-induced fatty liver

Project description:Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) is a persistent, bio-accumulative pollutant that has been used for the last 60+ years in numerous industrial and commercial applications. In mice, PFOS administration is known to induce hepatomegaly and hepatic steatosis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate potential PFOS and diet interactions and explore the mechanism of PFOS induced liver lipid accumulation. Prior to PFOS administration, mice were fed either a standard chow diet (SD) or 60% kCal high fat diet (HFD) for 4 weeks to establish significant body weight increase. After 4 weeks of diet acclimation, the treatment groups received 0.0003% PFOS in diet for an additional 10 weeks. In addition, a subset of the mice fed HFD were switched to a SD (H-SD) to mimic weight-loss induced improvement of hepatic steatosis. A total of six treatment groups: i) SD, ii) HSD, iii) HFD (H), iv) SD +PFOS(SDP), v) H-SD +PFOS (HSDP), and vi) HFD +PFOS (HP) were included. PFOS and lipid concentrations were measured in both serum and liver. Relative liver mRNA expression was determined by targeted bead array and proteins were quantified using untargeted mass spectrometry. PFOS exposure increased liver weight, and in the HFD increased liver triglycerides and liver cholesterol content. Gene and protein expression in the liver demonstrated that PFOS exposure induced lipid utilization and xenobiotic metabolism pathways, and in a HFD, induced lipid synthesis. The data suggests that PFOS exposure acts on lipid utilization genes and exacerbates hepatic steatosis in mice fed a HFD.

Diminazene aceturate (DIZE) stabilizes atherosclerotic plaques and attenuates hepatic steatosis in apolipoprotein E knockout mice by influencing macrophages polarization and taurine biosynthesis

Project description:Atherosclerosis and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the Western countries. NAFLD is an important independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) with its two main opposing effectors: angiotensin II (Ang II) and Ang-(1-7) is widely recognized as a major regulator of cardiovascular function and body metabolic processes. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) by breaking-down Ang II forms Ang-(1-7) and thus favors Ang-(1-7) actions. Therefore, the aim of our study was to comprehensively evaluate the influence of prolonged treatment with ACE2 activator – diminazene aceturate (DIZE) on the development of atherosclerotic lesions and hepatic steatosis in apoE-/- mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD). We have shown that DIZE at a dose of 30 mg/kg/day given orally for 16 weeks was able to stabilize atherosclerotic lesions and attenuate hepatic steatosis in apoE-/- mice fed an HFD. Such effects were associated with decreased total macrophages content and increased α-smooth muscle actin levels in atherosclerotic plaques. Moreover, DIZE changed polarization of macrophages towards increased amount of anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages in atherosclerotic lesions. Interestingly, the anti-steatotic action of DIZE in the liver was related to the elevated HDL in the plasma, decreased triglycerides levels and increased biosynthesis and concentration of taurine in liver of apoE-/- mice. However, the exact molecular mechanisms of both the anti-atherosclerotic and anti-steatotic actions of DIZE require further investigations.

The ER-Associated Degradation Adapter Protein Sel1L Regulates Triglyceride Metabolism via Lipoprotein Lipase

Project description:Sel1L is an adaptor protein for the E3 ligase Hrd1 in the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD), but its physiological role in a cell-type-specific manner remains unclear. Here we show that mice with adipocyte-specific Sel1L deficiency are resistant to diet-induced obesity and exhibit postprandial hypertriglyceridemia. Mechanistically, our data demonstrate a critical requirement of Sel1L for the secretion of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), independently of its role in Hrd1-mediated ERAD and ER homeostasis. Further biochemical analyses revealed that Sel1L physically interacts and stabilizes the LPL maturation complex consisted of LPL and lipase-maturation factor 1 (LMF1). In the absence of Sel1L, LPL is retained in the ER and prone to the formation of protein aggregates, which are degraded by autophagy-mediated degradation. The Sel1L-mediated control of LPL secretion is seen in other LPL-expressing cell types as well such as cardiac muscle and macrophages. Thus, our study reports a novel role of Sel1L in LPL secretion and systemic lipid metabolism. Sel1Lflox/flox mice were crossed with adiponectin promoter driven Cre mice to create adipose tissue-specific Sel1L-/- mice. Male wildtype C57Bl/6 mice and adipose tissue-specific Sel1l-/- mice were fed a high fat diet (Research Diets D12492) for 5 weeks. Adipose tissue was excised and used for microarray analysis.

RNA-seq analysis of diet-driven obesity and anti-obesity effects of Quercetin glucoside or Epigallocatechin gallate in Drosophila adults.

Project description:The High Fat Diet (HFD)-feeding significantly stimulated fat accumulation in Drosophila adults. Simultaneous feeding of known anti-obesity drugs that having the effect on rat and mouse, Quercetin Glycosides (QG) and Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) also suppressed fat accumulation in Drosophila at an equivalent concentration. Therefore, we have established a convenient model system to study on diet-induced fat accumulation and to evaluate effects of anti-obesity drugs using Drosophila. To understand overview of alterations of gene expression due to diet-induced fat accumulation and its suppression by the known anti-obesity drugs, we performed the RNA seq analyses. Consequently, mRNA levels of several genes involved in lipid metabolism, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis and anti-oxidative stress have changed in adults fed the HFD. Moreover, the levels altered in those fed on HFD supplemented with QG or EGCG. Our qRT-PCR further confirmed the RNA-seq data suggesting that expression of five genes essential for lipid metabolism was changed in HFD-fed animals and further altered in the animals treated with anti-obesity drugs. Among them, the most remarkable alteration was observed in dHSL gene encoding a lipase involved in lipid-storage after HFD feeding and the HFD supplemented with QG or EGCG. These changes are consistent with HFD-induced fat accumulation as well as the anti-obesity effects of those two drugs in mammals, suggesting that these genes play an important role in the anti-obesity effects of the drugs. These are the first evidences that whole profiles of altered gene expression under a condition of a diet-induced obesity and its suppression by anti-obesity drugs in Drosophila.

Gene expression data of livers from C57BL/6 fed a normal diet or high-fat-diet

Project description:Obesity is tightly associated with an increased risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the molecular mechanisms of obesity-induced fatty liver remain largely unknown.In order to identify genes that are potentially involved in dysfunctional hepatic lipid homeostasis in obesity, we performed a clustering analysis of Affymetrix arrays,which revealed that a number of mRNAs were dys-regulated in the livers of mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD), compared with mice fed a normal chow diet (ND). To identify genes that are potentially involved in dysfunctional hepatic lipid homeostasis in obesity, male C57BL/6 mice aged 8 weeks were fed a normal diet (ND) or high-fat-diet (HFD) containing 60 Kcal% of fat for 12 weeks. Then mice were sacrificed and total RNAs were isoloated from hepatic tissues. Affymetrix array hybridisation and scanning were performed using Mouse Genome 430 2.0 chips.Total RNA samples obtained from six mice per group (ND and HFD) and pooled by each of the two were used for microarray analysis.
