Diet1 functions in the FGF15/19 enterohepatic signaling axis to modulate bile acid and lipid levels.

ABSTRACT: We identified a mutation in the Diet1 gene in a mouse strain that is resistant to hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis. Diet1 encodes a 236 kD protein consisting of tandem low-density lipoprotein receptor and MAM (meprin-A5-protein tyrosine phosphatase mu) domains and is expressed in the enterocytes of the small intestine. Diet1-deficient mice exhibited an elevated bile acid pool size and impaired feedback regulation of hepatic Cyp7a1, which encodes the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid synthesis. In mouse intestine and in cultured human intestinal cells, Diet1 expression levels influenced the production of fibroblast growth factor 15/19 (FGF15/19), a hormone that signals from the intestine to liver to regulate Cyp7a1. Transgenic expression of Diet1, or adenoviral-mediated Fgf15 expression, restored normal Cyp7a1 regulation in Diet-1-deficient mice. Diet1 and FGF19 proteins exhibited overlapping subcellular localization in cultured intestinal cells. These results establish Diet1 as a control point in enterohepatic bile acid signaling and lipid homeostasis.

Project description:BackgroundThe utilization of mulberry branch fiber (MF), the largest by-product of the sericulture industry, is an important issue. Supplementation with MF as a dietary fiber for poultry may serve as a useful application. However, little is known about the effects of MF on liver lipid metabolism and egg yolk fatty acid composition of laying hens and their underlying mechanisms. In this study, we performed a multi-omics investigation to explore the variations in liver lipid metabolism, egg yolk fatty acid composition, gut microbiota, and the associations among them induced by dietary MF in laying hens.ResultsDietary MF had no harmful effects on the laying performance or egg quality in laying hens. The enzyme activities associated with lipid metabolism in the liver were altered by the addition of 5% MF, resulting in reduced liver fat accumulation. Furthermore, dietary 5% MF induced the variation in the fatty acid profiles of egg yolk, and increased the polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) content. We observed a significant reduction in the diversity of both gut bacteria and changes in their compositions after the addition of MF. Dietary MF significantly increased the abundance of genes involved in fatty acid biodegradation, and short-chain fatty acids biosynthesis in the gut microbiota of laying hens. The significant correlations were observed between the liver lipid metabolism enzyme activities of hepatic lipase, lipoprotein lipase, and total esterase with gut microbiota, including negative correlations with gut microbiota diversity, and multiple correlations with gut bacteria and viruses. Moreover, various correlations between the contents of PUFAs and monounsaturated fatty acids in egg yolk with the gut microbiota were obtained. Based on partial-least-squares path modeling integrated with the multi-omics datasets, we deduced the direct effects of liver enzyme activities and gut bacterial compositions on liver fat content and the roles of liver enzyme activities and gut bacterial diversity on egg yolk fatty acid composition.ConclusionsThe results indicate that dietary MF is beneficial to laying hens as it reduces the liver fat and improves egg yolk fatty acid composition through the enterohepatic axis.

Project description:Background and aimsBile acid malabsorption (BAM) is a debilitating disease characterized by loose stools and high stool frequency. The pathophysiology of BAM is not well-understood. We investigated postprandial enterohepatic and gluco-metabolic physiology, as well as gut microbiome composition and fecal bile acid content in patients with BAM.MethodsTwelve participants with selenium-75 homocholic acid taurine test-verified BAM and 12 healthy controls, individually matched on sex, age, and body mass index, were included. Each participant underwent 2 mixed meal tests (with and without administration of the bile acid sequestrant colesevelam) with blood sampling and evaluation of gallbladder motility; bile acid content and microbiota composition were evaluated in fecal specimens.ResultsPatients with BAM were characterized by increased bile acid synthesis as assessed by circulating 7-alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one, fecal bile acid content, and postprandial concentrations of glucose, insulin, C-peptide, and glucagon. The McAuley index of insulin sensitivity was lower in patients with BAM than that in healthy controls. In patients with BAM, colesevelam co-administered with the meal reduced postprandial concentrations of bile acids and fibroblast growth factor 19 and increased 7-alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one concentrations but did not affect postprandial glucagon-like peptide 1 responses or other gluco-metabolic parameters. Patients with BAM were characterized by a gut microbiome with low relative abundance of bifidobacteria and high relative abundance of Blautia, Streptococcus, Ruminococcus gnavus, and Akkermansia muciniphila.ConclusionPatients with BAM are characterized by an overproduction of bile acids, greater fecal bile acid content, and a gluco-metabolic profile indicative of a dysmetabolic prediabetic-like state, with changes in their gut microbiome composition potentially linking their enterohepatic pathophysiology and their dysmetabolic phenotype.
