Resveratrol prevents diet-induced arterial degeneration and stiffening in nonhuman primates

ABSTRACT: Cardiovascular (CV) disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Western societies. Even after accounting for traditional CV risk factors (e.g. obesity, smoking and hypertension), the inflammation-driven thickening and stiffening of central arteries is a strong predictor of adverse outcomes. Arterial wall changes are universally associated with advancing age and show unparalleled worsening in metabolic syndrome. In mice, resveratrol ameliorates a high-fat diet induced arterial wall inflammation and slows age-associated physiologic deteriorations within the arterial wall. Here we tested resveratrol in adult male rhesus monkeys, an experimental model relevant to humans. A diet rich in fat and sucrose (HFS) led to an increase in body weight as well as thickening and stiffening of the aortic wall, marked by diffuse inflammation, fibrosis and fat infiltration. Dietary resveratrol supplementation prevented diet-induced structural and functional alterations within the aortic wall, and abrogated the deleterious vascular endothelial and smooth muscle responses. Integrative genomic and proteomic analyses of aortic tissues revealed molecular signatures consistent with improved vascular functions. Thus, resveratrol conferred protection against the initiation of diet-induced inflammatory events that progress to pathological thickening and stiffening of large arteries. Dietary resveratrol may therefore hold promise as a novel therapy to ameliorate metabolic stress-induced CV disease. After baseline assessment, four male rhesus monkeys remained on the healthy standard diet (SD), 10 male rhesus monkeys were begun on a high fat/high sucrose (HFS) diet and 10 male rhesus monkeys were begun on a high fat/high sucrose (HFS) diet plus Resveratrol, 80mg/day. After one year of dietary intervention, the amount of resveratrol was increased to 240mg/day for one additional year. Tissues were then harvested for the array experiments.

Central arterial wall stiffening, driven by a chronic inflammatory milieu, accompanies arterial diseases, the leading cause of cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality in Western society. An increase in central arterial wall stiffening, measured as an increase in aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV), is a major risk factor for clinical CV disease events. However, no specific therapies to reduce PWV are presently available. In rhesus monkeys, a 2 year diet high in fat and sucrose (HFS) increases n ...[more]

Project description:Obesity is associated with a chronic, low-grade, systemic inflammation that may contribute to the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Resveratrol, a natural compound with anti-inflammatory properties, is shown to improve glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in obese mice and humans. Here we tested the effect of a 2-year resveratrol administration on the pro-inflammatory profile and insulin resistance caused by a high-fat, high-sugar (HFS) diet in white adipose tissue (WAT) from rhesus monkeys. Eighty mg/day of resveratrol for 12-month followed by 480 mg/day for the second year decreased adipocyte size, increased sirtuin 1 expression, decreased NF-kB activation and improved insulin sensitivity in visceral but not subcutaneous WAT from HFS-fed animals. These effects were reproduced in 3T3-L1 adipocytes cultured in media supplemented with serum from monkeys fed HFS +/- resveratrol diets. In conclusion, chronic administration of resveratrol exerts beneficial metabolic and inflammatory adaptations in visceral WAT from diet-induced obese monkeys. Twenty-four adult (7-13 years old) male rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) were housed individually in standard nonhuman primate caging on a 12h light/12h dark cycle, room temperature (78 +/- 2 degrees F), and humidity at 60 +/- 20%. One pairing was maintained throughout the study; all other monkeys had extensive visual, auditory, and olfactory but limited tactile contact with monkeys housed in the same room. Monkeys received 2 meals per day at estimated ad libitum levels throughout the study. Water was always available ad libitum. Monkeys were monitored minimally 3 times daily by trained animal care staff. During baseline assessments, all monkeys were maintained on a commercially available closed formula monkey chow. After baseline assessment, four male rhesus monkeys remained on the healthy standard diet (SD), 10 male rhesus monkeys were begun on a high fat/high sucrose (HFS) diet and 10 male rhesus monkeys were begun on a high fat/high sucrose (HFS) diet plus Resveratrol, 80mg/day. After one year of dietary intervention, the amount of resveratrol was increased to 480mg/day for one additional year. Tissues were then harvested for the array experiments.
