Project description:There is increased interest in the potential protective role of dietary Ca in the development of metabolic disorders related to the metabolic syndrome. Ca-induced intestinal precipitation of fatty acids and bile acids as well as systemic metabolic effects of Ca on adipose tissue is proposed to play a causal role. In this experiment, we have studied all these aspects to validate the suggested protective effect of Ca supplementation, independent of other dietary changes, on the development of diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance. In our diet intervention study, C57BL/6J mice were fed high-fat diets differing in Ca concentrations (50 v. 150 mmol/kg). Faecal excretion analyses showed an elevated precipitation of intestinal fatty acids (2·3-fold; P < 0·01) and bile acids (2-fold; P < 0·01) on the high-Ca diet. However, this only led to a slight reduction in fat absorption (from 98 to 95 %; P < 0·01), mainly in the distal small intestine as indicated by gene expression changes. We found no effect on body-weight gain. Lipolysis and lipogenesis-related parameters in adipose tissue also showed no significant changes on the high-Ca diet, indicating no systemic effects of dietary Ca on adiposity. Furthermore, early gene expression changes of intestinal signaling molecules predicted no protective effect of dietary Ca on the development of insulin resistance, which was confirmed by equal values for insulin sensitivity on both diets. Taken together, our data do not support the proposed protective effect of dietary Ca on the development of obesity and/or insulin resistance, despite a significant increase in fecal excretion of fatty acids and bile acids. Keywords: Diet intervention study Nine-week-old mice were fed a high fat purified diet with a low calcium concentration of 50mmol/kg (LCa diet) or a high calcium concentration of 150mmol/kg (HCa diet) for 8 weeks. Body weight was recorded weekly and after 7 weeks of diet intervention an oral glucose tolerance test was performed. For microarray analysis, after 2 weeks of diet intervention, 6 mice per diet group were anaesthetized with a mixture of isofluorane (1.5%), nitrous oxide (70%) and oxygen (30%) and the small intestines were excised. Adhering fat and pancreatic tissue were carefully removed. The small intestines were divided in three equal parts along the proximal to distal axis (SI 1, SI 2 and SI 3) and microarray analysis was performed on pooled mucosal scrapings.

Project description:Despite the benefits associated with healthy diets, data on the mechanisms by which these benefits are promoted are scarce. Our aim was to explore the global transcriptomic response of biological pathways related to cardiovascular disease associated with traditional Mediterranean diet (TMD) intervention. The PREDIMED study is a large on-going, parallel, multicentre, randomised, controlled trial aimed at assessing the TMD effect on primary cardiovascular prevention. High cardiovascular risk participants were recruited and assigned to one of the following interventions: 1) TMD plus virgin olive oil (VOO); 2) TMD plus mixed nuts; or 3) low-fat diet (control group). In a sub sample of 30 volunteers of the PREDIMED- Barcelona Sur Centre, gene expression changes in peripheral mononuclear cells, after 3 months of intervention, were assessed by microarray analysis. A parallel study comparing three diet interventions: We analyzed 65 arrays which belonged to 34 patients, 31 microarrays at baseline (11 baseline group 1; 11 baseline group 2; 9 baseline group 3) and 34 microarrays after the 3 month intervention (11 for group 1; 11 for group 2; and 12 for group 3). The three interventions were: Group 1: 3-month Traditional Mediterranean Diet enriched with virgin olive oil; Group 2: 3-month Traditional Mediterranean Diet enriched with nuts; and Group 3: 3-month Low Fat Diet.

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.

Project description:Diet can regulate gene and microRNA (miRNA) expression and various biological processes in the gut. Dietary interventions have been proposed as therapeutic approaches for several diseases, including cancer. In a pilot study, we showed that a low-inflammatory Mediterranean diet reduced markers of local and systemic inflammation in patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP). We evaluated the changes induced by a low-inflammatory Mediterranean dietary intervention on fecal miRNome and intestinal tissue transcriptome in FAP subjects and assessed whether these changes could be associated with the beneficial effects observed in the pilot study. The diet modulated 41 fecal miRNAs, and this modulation remained for three months after the intervention. miR-5092-5p, miR-4527, and miR-3612-3p were positively correlated with adherence to the Mediterranean diet, while miR-6867-5p and miR-760-5p were negatively correlated with serum calprotectin levels. The altered miRNAs target genes mainly related to inflammatory pathways, DNA repair, metabolism, and cytoskeleton organization. Seventy genes were differentially expressed between adenoma and normal tissue. Most were different before the dietary intervention, but reached similar levels after the diet. Functional enrichment analysis identified the proinflammatory ERK1/2, cell cycle regulation and nutrient response pathways as commonly regulated by differentially expressed miRNAs and genes. These findings suggest that fecal miRNAs modulated by the diet reflect an epigenetic regulation occurring in tissues that seems to influence inflammatory pathways. miRNAs and genes with oncogenic and tumor suppressor functions are also regulated, highlighting the potential cancer-preventive effect of the low-inflammatory Mediterranean diet.

Dietary interventions have been proposed as therapeutic approaches for several diseases, including cancer. In a pilot study, we showed that a low-inflammatory Mediterranean diet reduced markers of local and systemic inflammation in 27 patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP). We evaluated the changes induced by a low-inflammatory Mediterranean dietary intervention on fecal miRNome and intestinal tissue transcriptome in FAP subjects and assessed whether these changes could be associated with the beneficial effects observed in the pilot study.

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease is the most prevalent liver disease and affects a quarter of the global population. Estrogens are associated to safeguard the liver from metabolic diseases. We fed male and female mice a control or high-fat diet for 13 weeks. Only male mice developed fatty livers. We injected a subset of male mice fed a high-fat diet with four different estrogen receptor (ER) agonists for the last three weeks of the high-fat diet, activating the nuclear ERalpha and ERbeta. Livers were collected and flash-frozen before RNA isolation, DNAse treatment, library preparation and sequencing on an Illumina NextSeq 500 instrument.

Project description:SCOPE: We investigated whether a novel dietary intervention consisting of an every-other-week calorie-restricted diet could prevent nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) development induced by a medium-fat (MF) diet. METHODS AND RESULTS: Nine-week-old male C57BL/6J mice received either a (i) control (C), (ii) 30E% calorie restricted (CR), (iii) MF (25E% fat), or (iv) intermittent (INT) diet, a diet alternating weekly between 40E% CR and an ad libitum MF diet until sacrifice at the age of 12 months. The metabolic, morphological, and molecular features of NAFLD were examined. The INT diet resulted in healthy metabolic and morphological features as displayed by the continuous CR diet: glucose tolerant, low hepatic triglyceride content, low plasma alanine aminotransferase. In contrast, the C- and MF-exposed mice with high body weight developed signs of NAFLD. However, the gene expression profiles of INT-exposed mice differed to those of CR-exposed mice and showed to be more similar with those of C- and MF-exposed mice with a comparable body weight. CONCLUSIONS: Our study reveals that the INT diet maintains metabolic health and reverses the adverse effects of the MF diet, thus effectively prevents the development of NAFLD in 12-month-old male C57BL/6J mice. Male C57Bl/6J mice were divided to 4 dietary intervention groups: Control (AIN-93W), 30% calorie restriction (CR; AIN-93W-CR), medium fat (MF; AIN-93W-MF; 25% energy from fat) and intermittent diet (INT; weekly alternating diet between AIN-93W-MF ad lib and 40% CR of AIN-93W). We performed various measurements on metabolic parameters and gene expression analysis on the liver. This entry represents the microarray data of the liver gene expression of each mouse.

Project description:Gene expression profiles from mouse intestinal scrapings fed with either a glucose (n=13), galactose (n=13), or lactose-containing diet (n=13) were prepared. The mice were fed the isocaloric intervention diets during the postweaning period (postnatal days PN21-PN42) and sacrificed at PN42 in the fed state. Differential gene expression analysis reveals a clear effect of galactose consumption on metabolic pathways, especially fatty acid metabolism.
