Project description:It is clearly established that the maternal diet during pregnancy can induce physiological and metabolic adaptations in the developing fetus which determine its susceptibility later in life to develop diabetes, obesity... The molecular and genomic mechanisms underlying the programming of the metabolic syndrome remain largely unknown but may involve resetting of epigenetic marks and fetal gene expression. We analyzed the profile of the liver transcriptome in 21-day-old rats born to mothers fed with a standard diet or a diet lacking methyl donor nutrients (Vitamin B12 and folates) during gestation and lactation. From a total of 44,000 probes for 26,456 genes, we found two gene clusters whose expression levels had statistically significant differences between control and deficient rats: 3,269 up-regulated and 2,841 down-regulated genes. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that these genes are mainly involved in glucose and lipid metabolism, nervous system, coagulation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and mitochondrial function. Modifications of gene expression in rat liver were measured in 21-day-old rats born to mothers fed with a standard diet or a diet lacking methyl donor nutrients (Vitamin B12 and folates). Eight independent experiments were performed (4 Controls versus 4 Methyl Donor Deficiency - MDD).

Project description:The metabolic pathways that underlie the association between folate deficiency and increased risk for colorectal cancer (CRC) remain unclear. We have studied the effect of C1THF synthase (encoded by the Mthfd1 gene) and dietary folate and choline on intestinal tumor development in Apcmin/+ mice and azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon cancer in mice. Mthfd1 deficiency did not alter tumor number or load in Apcmin/+ mice, but did result in a decreased incidence of colon tumors. Conversely, Mthfd1 deficiency increased tumor number 3.5-fold and tumor load 2-fold in AOM-treated mice. Here we tested colons isolated from wildtype and Mthfd1-deficient animals for alterations in gene expression. Keywords: genetic modification RNA was isolated from proximal colons of MTHFD heterozygous and wild-type mice raised on a control diet. Three colon samples were isolated from each genotype to provide biological replication.

Project description:DNA methylation profiles of the livers of 1 day old rats from mothers fed with three different diets during gestation. The first animal group was fed with a normal diet (c=control); second group received much less protein than normal and slighlty more carbs (p=low protein, or programmed); third group diet was same as low protein but with extra folic acid (f=low protein+folate). All diets were matched for energy. Genomic DNA from rat livers was subjected to selection according to the methyl-CpG binding domain-based (MBD) protein protocol (DNA pooled from 6 individuals per group) and the resulting fragments sequenced in high throughput. Methylated DNA was captured with MethylCap kit (Diagenode). Approximately 10 ng of captured DNA was used for library preparation (ChIP-seq DNA sample Prep Kit, Illumina).

Project description:Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major health problem and a leading cause of chronic liver disease in the United States and developed countries. In humans, genetic factors greatly influence individual susceptibility to NAFLD. The goals of this study were to compare the magnitude of interindividual differences in the severity of liver injury induced by methyl-donor deficiency among individual inbred strains of mice and to investigate the underlying mechanisms associated with the variability. Feeding mice a choline- and folate-deficient diet for 12 wk caused liver injury similar to NAFLD. The magnitude of liver injury varied among the strains, with the order of sensitivity being A/J M-bM-^IM-^H C57BL/6J M-bM-^IM-^H C3H/HeJ < 129S1/SvImJ M-bM-^IM-^H CAST/EiJ < PWK/PhJ < WSB/EiJ. The interstrain variability in severity of NAFLD liver damage was associated with dysregulation of genes involved in lipid metabolism, primarily with a down-regulation of the peroxisome proliferator receptor M-NM-1 (PPARM-NM-1)-regulated lipid catabolic pathway genes. Markers of oxidative stress and oxidative stress-induced DNA damage were also elevated in the livers but were not correlated with severity of liver damage. These findings suggest that the PPARM-NM-1-regulated metabolism network is one of the key mechanisms determining interstrain susceptibility and severity of NAFLD in mice. Male A/J, C3H/HeJ and WSB/EiJ inbred mice were maintained on either control or choline- and folate-deficient (CFD) diets for 12 weeks. Gene expression profiles in the livers from control mice and mice fed a CFD-diet were investigated.

Project description:Test compound one, 5,6-benzoflavone (BNF), was known to act through both the Ah receptor and Nrf2 receptor pathways, while test compounds two and three, 3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (D3T) and 4-methyl-5-pyrazinyl-3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (OLT), were known to act through the Nrf2 receptor pathway. Furthermore, D3T is known to be more potent and efficacious than OLT for Nrf2 activation. OLT has been shown to exhibit 20-50% of the efficacy of D3T for inhibition of alfatoxin-induced heptic foci. Nonetheless, because OLT is an approved drug, it is currently being evaluated in human phase II intervention trials of biomarkers of alfatoxin-related hepatocellular carcinoma. More recently, BNF was shown to be an effective chemopreventive agent in the rat mammary carcinogen model, inhibiting 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene DNA adduct formation in liver and mammary cells by 96 and 83% respectively. We used microarrays to study the structure activities that lie within the test compounds. Experiment Overall Design: Twenty female Sprague Dawley rats, were randomly divided into 4 groups of 5 each. Each group of rats were fed with Harlan Teklad Rodent diet, 4% mash diet (Control) or the same formulation containing either, 5,6-benzoflavone (BNF, 1650 mg/kg diet), 3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (D3T, 600 mg/kg diet), or 4-methyl-5-pyrazinyl-3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione (OLT, 500 mg/kg diet), for 24 days. The rats were sacrificed with carbon dioxide. The livers were harvested within 3 min, rapidly frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at -80oC until they were processed

Project description:The genomic analysis of liver from mice fed with standard or methyl and choline deficient (MCD) diet and treated with dual agonist of GLP1R/GCGR during two weeks before 70% partial hepatectomy (PH) and after 2 weeks PH resulted in a set of genes regulated by diet and other set regulated differentially by treatment in MCD treated animals. These genes are apparently responsible for the reversion and prevention of NAS and improvement in hepatic regeneration induced by drug treatment All microarray analyses were performed with RNA samples obtained from four independent liver from animals with different diet and drug treatmens.

Project description:Iron is an essential nutritional element; its deficiency in the body causes nutritional problems and a decrease in iron storage that can lead to anemia. The liver not only stores iron but is an important metabolic target as well. Dietary iron deficiency is associated with changes in the metabolism of nutrients such as lipids. However, to the best of our knowledge, a global analysis detailing the consequences of iron deficiency in the body has not yet been reported. We performed a comprehensive transcriptome analysis using DNA microarray technology to reveal the effects of iron deficiency on hepatic gene expression. Four-week-old rats were fed an iron-deficient diet or a control diet for 16 days. On day 17, the rats were sacrificed under anesthesia, and their livers were dissected for DNA microarray analysis. We identified 600 up-regulated and 500 down-regulated probe sets to characterize the iron-deficient diet group. The up-regulated probe sets contained genes for enzymes that are involved in cholesterol, amino acid, and glucose metabolisms, as well as in apoptosis. The down-regulated probe sets included genes for enzymes associated with lipid metabolism. Additionally, the 16-day iron-deficient diet induced anemia. Our gene expression analysis revealed that, as a result, cholesterol biosynthesis, gluconeogenesis, and apoptosis due to endoplasmic reticulum stress were accelerated, while fatty acid biosynthesis was suppressed by dietary iron deficiency. Our analysis also showed that cholesterol metabolism, including bile acid biosynthesis, was accelerated in the initial stages of cholesterol accumulation. Experiment Overall Design: Male 3-week-old Sprague Dawley rats were purchased from Charles River Japan (Kanagawa, Japan) and housed in a room conditioned at 24 ± 1°C and 40 ± 5% humidity with a 12-h light-dark cycle (lights on at 08:00). The rats were given a control diet and water for 24 h ad libitum. Diets for rats were obtained from Research Diets, Inc. (New Brunswick, NJ, USA). The composition of the control diet was based on the AIN93G diet , except that cellulose was replaced by Avicel, since cellulose is an ingredient of variable iron content. The iron-deficient diet was prepared by removal of iron (ferric citrate) from the control diet. At day 8, rats were divided into two groups comprising animals of similar body weights. One group (n = 6) was fed the control diet and the other group (n = 7) was fed the iron-deficient diet (iron-deficient diet group). After iron-deficient diet feeding was started, blood hemoglobin levels were measured every two days. Blood samples for hemoglobin measurements were collected from the tail vein, and hemoglobin levels were measured by using the Wako Hemoglobin B test (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Osaka, Japan). On day 12 of the iron-deficient diet treatment, diets were removed at 17:00, and feeding was conducted between 09:00 and 17:00 for another 4 days. This protocol was intended to synchronize the ratsâ feeding behavior. On day 17 of the iron-deficient diet treatment, rats were fed for 1.5 h prior to sacrifice under anesthesia. Livers were then excised and subsequently immersed in RNAlater (Applied Biosystems Japan, Tokyo, Japan). Blood hemoglobin level of rats fed an iron-deficient diet decreased significantly over the course of the feeding. On day 17, the hemoglobin level in the iron-deficient diet group was 42% of that of the control diet group (P < 0.01).
