Expression data from mouse intestine: BALB/c MTHFR+/+ on control diet vs BALB/c MTHFR+/- on folate deficient diet

ABSTRACT: Previous studies in our laboratory have shown that low folate diet (control diet with 2mg folate/kg, low folate diet with 0.3mg folate/kg) can induce intestinal tumors in BALB/c mice. We used microarrays to compare MTHFR+/+ BALB/c mice fed control diet and MTHFR+/- BALB/c mice fed low folate diet. After weaning, 4 BALB/c Mthfr +/+ mice were fed with a control diet (CD, 2mg folate/kg) and 4 BALB/c Mthfr +/- mice were fed a low folate diet (FD, 0.3mg folate/kg) for 1 year. Both diets contain succinylsulfanthiozole (1%) to prevent folate synthesis by intestine microbial biota.

An understanding of early genetic/epigenetic changes in colorectal cancer would aid in diagnosis and prognosis. To identify these changes in human preneoplastic tissue, we first studied our mouse model in which Mthfr⁺/⁻ BALB/c mice fed folate-deficient diets develop intestinal tumors in contrast to Mthfr⁺/⁺ BALB/c mice fed control diets. Transcriptome profiling was performed in normal intestine from mice with low or high tumor susceptibility. We identified 12 upregulated and 51 downregulated gen ...[more]

Expression data from mouse intestine: C57Bl/6 MTHFR+/- vs BALB/c MTHFR+/-

Project description:Previous studies in our laboratory have shown that low folate diet (control diet with 2mg folate/kg, low folate diet with 0.3mg folate/kg) can induce intestinal tumors in BALB/c mice. In addition, we reported that C57Bl/6J mice did not form tumors under the same conditions. We used microarrays to identify the genetic differences between BALB/c and C57Bl/6J mice that promote tumorigenesis in BALB/c mice. Two groups of mice will be used in the micro-array experiment. One group will consist of four BALB/c mice and the second group will consist of four C57Bl/6 mice. Both groups have mild MTHFR deficiency (Mthfr+/-) and will receive low folate diet (0.3 mg folate/kg) for one year. RNA samples will be extracted from duodenum, the first section of the small intestine where tumors were observed in BALB/c mice. Eight Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array Chips will be used in this experiment.

Transcription profiling of blood cells from rats fed a folate deficient diet vs fed a normal diet for 28 days

Project description:Wistar Kyoto, inbred male rats (M & B, Ry, Denmark) were randomized and fed a semisynthetic pellet diet deficient in folate (TD350, Harland, Madison, Wisconsin, USA) or an identical diet with a normal amount of folate (TD351, Harland). Special analyses were performed to establish the content of Methionine, Vitamin B12, Folate and Vitamin B6 in the two diets. The folate content was <0.06 mg/kg and 1.63 mg/Kg, respectively. Detailed specification of the diets has been published previously. Animals were housed in stainless steel cages with a bed of sawdust, two to a cage, and were allowed free access to food and drinking water. The room temperature was 23a C and the humidity was 45-55 %. Light cycles consisted of 12 h light/12 h darkness. The animals were weighed at randomization and subsequently every seven days. The animal experiments were carried out in accordance with the guidelines of the International Scientific Committee for Thrombosis and Hemostasis, and the Danish Ethical Committee for Animal Experimentation had approved the study protocol. This study consisted of twelve rats fed the folate deficient diet and twelve rats fed the normal diet for 28 days.

Sperm DNA methylation defects in a new mouse model of the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase 677C>T variant and correction with moderate dose folic acid supplementation.

Project description:5,10-Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is an enzyme that plays a key role in providing methyl groups for DNA methylation, including during spermatogenesis. A common genetic variant in humans (MTHFR 677C>T), results in reduced enzyme activity and has been linked to various disorders, including male infertility. A new animal model has been created by reproducing the human equivalent of the polymorphism in mice using CRISPR/Cas9. Biochemical parameters in the Mthfr 677TT mice recapitulate alterations found in MTHFR 677TT men. Our aims were to: 1) characterize the sperm DNA methylome of the Mthfr 677CC and TT mice on a control diet (2mg folic acid/kg diet) and 2) assess the effects of folic acid deficiency (0.3mg/kg diet) and supplementation (10 mg/kg diet) on the sperm DNA methylome. Body and reproductive organ weights, testicular sperm counts, and histology were examined. DNA methylation in sperm was assessed using bisulfite pyrosequencing, Illumina Mouse Methylation Array and whole genome bisulfite sequencing. Reproductive parameters and imprinted gene methylation were unaffected by genotype or diets. The largest effect was due to genotype, with sperm from 677TT mice showing more hypo- than hypermethylation. Folate-deficient diets resulted in sperm hyper- and hypomethylation in CC and TT mice. Folic acid supplementation caused mostly hypermethylation in sperm of males of both genotypes and was found to partially correct the DNA methylation alterations in sperm associated with the TT genotype. The new mouse model will be useful in understanding the role of MTHFR deficiency in male fertility and in designing folate supplementation regimens for the clinic.

Maternal folate depletion during early development and high fat feeding from weaning elicit similar changes in gene expression, but not in DNA methylation, in adult offspring (Gene expression data)

Project description:Scope: The âPredictive Adaptive Responseâ hypothesis suggests the in utero environment when mismatched with the post-natal environment can influence later life health. Underlying mechanisms are poorly understood, but may involve gene transcription changes, regulated via epigenetic mechanisms. Methods and Results: In a 2x2 factorial design, female C57Bl/6 mice were randomised to low or normal folate diets (0.4mg/ or 2mg folic acid/kg diet) prior to and during pregnancy and lactation with. At weaning, offspring were randomised to high or low fat diets at weaning. Genome-wide gene expression and promoter DNA methylation were measured using microarrays in adult male livers. Maternal folate depletion and high fat intake post-weaning influenced gene expression (1959 and 1612 genes respectively) and promoter DNA methylation (208 and 344 loci respectively) but changes in expression and methylation were poorly matched for both dietary interventions. Expression of 667 genes was altered in response to both maternal folate depletion and post-weaning high fat feeding. In addition, there was evidence that the combined dietary insult (i.e. maternal folate depletion followed by high fat post-weaning) exerted the largest expression change for most of these genes. Conclusion: Our observations align with, and provide evidence in support of a potential underlying mechanism for, the âPredictive Adaptive Responseâ hypothesis. Elucidation of these mechanisms may identify targets for interventions to mitigate effects of adverse nutrition exposures during early development on disease risk in later life.

Low paternal dietary folate alters the sperm epigenome and is associated with negative pregnancy outcomes

Project description:We hypothesized that the availability of folate, a soluble B vitamin, would alter the levels of DNA methylation in spermatogenesis with consequences for the sperm epigenome and pregnancy outcomes. We fed male mice with either a folate-deficient or a folate-sufficient diet throughout life. Males fed the folate-deficient diet had offspring with increased birth defects, which included craniofacial and musculoskeletal malformations. These phenotypes corresponded to developmental genes with altered methylation in sperm. To determine if there was transmission of epigenetic effects from sires to offspring, global gene expression levels were assessed in placenta from 18.5 dpc fetuses sired by either a folate-sufficient or folate-deficient male. Gene expression was measured in placenta of 18.5 dpc fetuses sired by either a folate sufficient male (n=4 placentas from different litters and different fathers) or a folate deficient (FD) male (n=4 placentas from different litters and different fathers).

Folate deficiency during early-mid pregnancy affects the skeletal muscle transcriptome of piglets from a reciprocal cross

Project description:The objective of this study is to determine the effect of maternal folate deficiency on the skeletal muscle transcriptome of piglets from a reciprocal cross, in which full-sibling Landrace (LR) and full-sibling Chinese local breed Laiwu (LW) pigs were used for reciprocal cross matings, and sows were fed either a folate deficient or a normal diet during early-mid gestation. In addition, the difference in the responsiveness of the piglets to folate deficiency during early-mid pregnancy between reciprocal cross groups was investigated.Longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle samples were collected from newborn piglets and a 4 x 44K Agilent porcine oligo microarray was used for transcriptome analysis of porcine LD muscle. The results showed that folate deficiency during early-mid pregnancy affected piglet body weight, LD muscle fiber number and content of intramuscular triglyceride.
