Growth of Bifidobacterium species is inhibited by free fatty acids and bile salts but not by glycerides.

ABSTRACT: High-fat diets have been associated with lower gut and fecal abundances of genus Bifidobacterium. Here, we investigated whether commonly consumed dietary free fatty acids have any detrimental effect on the growth of B. adolescentis, B. bifidum, and B. longum. We found that the presence of free fatty acids in the medium inhibits the growth of Bifidobacterium species to a varying degree, with capric (C10:0), oleic (C18:1), and linoleic (C18:2) acids displaying the largest effect. In comparison, free fatty acids did not affect the growth of Escherichia coli. When fats were added as a mixture of mono- and diacylglycerols, the inhibitory effect on Bifidobacterium growth was abolished.

Zebrafish olfactory receptors ORAs differentially detect bile acids and bile salts.

Project description:The fish olfactory receptor ORA family is orthologous to the mammalian vomeronasal receptors type 1. It consists of six highly conserved chemosensory receptors expected to be essential for survival and communication. We deorphanized the zebrafish ORA family in a heterologous cell system. The six receptors responded specifically to lithocholic acid (LCA) and closely related C24 5β-bile acids/salts. LCA attracted zebrafish as strongly as food in behavioral tests, whereas the less potent cholanic acid elicited weaker attraction, consistent with the in vitro results. The ORA-ligand recognition patterns were probed with site-directed mutagenesis guided by in silico modeling. We revealed the receptors' structure-function relationship underlying their specificity and selectivity for these compounds. Bile acids/salts are putative fish semiochemicals or pheromones sensed by the olfactory system with high specificity. This work identified their receptors and provided the basis for probing the roles of ORAs and bile acids/salts in fish chemosensation.

Global transcriptional responses to a long-term treatment of bile salts in Bifidobacterium longum BBMN68

Project description:Purpose：Bifidobacteria are common inhabitants of the human gastrointestinal tract. In order to colonize in the gut, it is important to adapt to the physiological concentrations of bile salts. The global response to bile in B. longum BBMN68, isolated from a healthy centenarian in the Bama County of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in China, has been investigated through RNA-seq transcriptomics sequencing in our previous work. However, a long-term bile salts treatment is more suitable to simulate the human gastrointestinal tract environment. The goals of this study are to invstigated the global response to a long-term treatment of bile salts in B. longum BBMN68. Methods: Samples from BBMN68 cultured with or without 0.75 g liter-1 ox-bile for 24 hours were sequenced on an Illumina Hiseq platform. Three independent biological replicates were produced including 6 samples in total. Results: Raw data were firstly processed through in-house perl scripts to generate clean data, and then clean date were mapped to the reference genome, getting about 11-13 million total mapped reads per sample.

Re-evaluation of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acids (E 471) as food additives.

Project description:The EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food (ANS) provides a scientific opinion re-evaluating the safety of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acids (E 471) when used as a food additive. The Panel considered that it is very likely that hydrolysis of mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acids by lipases in the gastrointestinal tract would occur, resulting in the release of glycerol and fatty acids. Glycerol (E 422) and fatty acids (E 570) have been re-evaluated and the Panel concluded that there was no safety concern regarding their use as food additives. Toxicological studies with mono- and di-glycerides rich in unsaturated fatty acids were considered for the re-evaluation of E 471. No evidence for adverse effects was reported in short-term, subchronic studies, chronic, reproductive and developmental toxicity studies. Neither carcinogenic potential nor a promotion effect in initiation/promotion was reported. The available studies did not raise any concern with regard to genotoxicity. The refined estimates were based on 31 out of 84 food categories in which E 471 is authorised. The Panel noted that the contribution of E 471 represented at the mean only 0.8-3.5% of the recommended daily fat intake. Based on the approach described in the conceptual framework for the risk assessment of certain food additives re-evaluated under Commission Regulation (EU) No 257/2010 and taking into account the considerations mentioned above, the Panel concluded that there was no need for a numerical acceptable daily intake (ADI) and that the food additive mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acids (E 471) was of no safety concern at the reported uses and use levels. The Panel recommended some modifications of the EU specifications for E 471.

Stimulation of motilin secretion by bile, free fatty acids, and acidification in human duodenal organoids.

Project description:ObjectiveMotilin is a proximal small intestinal hormone with roles in gastrointestinal motility, gallbladder emptying, and hunger initiation. In vivo motilin release is stimulated by fats, bile, and duodenal acidification but the underlying molecular mechanisms of motilin secretion remain poorly understood. This study aimed to establish the key signaling pathways involved in the regulation of secretion from human motilin-expressing M-cells.MethodsHuman duodenal organoids were CRISPR-Cas9 modified to express the fluorescent protein Venus or the Ca2+ sensor GCaMP7s under control of the endogenous motilin promoter. This enabled the identification and purification of M-cells for bulk RNA sequencing, peptidomics, calcium imaging, and electrophysiology. Motilin secretion from 2D organoid-derived cultures was measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), in parallel with other gut hormones.ResultsHuman duodenal M-cells synthesize active forms of motilin and acyl-ghrelin in organoid culture, and also co-express cholecystokinin (CCK). Activation of the bile acid receptor GPBAR1 stimulated a 3.4-fold increase in motilin secretion and increased action potential firing. Agonists of the long-chain fatty acid receptor FFA1 and monoacylglycerol receptor GPR119 stimulated secretion by 2.4-fold and 1.5-fold, respectively. Acidification (pH 5.0) was a potent stimulus of M-cell calcium elevation and electrical activity, an effect attributable to acid-sensing ion channels, and a modest inducer of motilin release.ConclusionsThis study presents the first in-depth transcriptomic and functional characterization of human duodenal motilin-expressing cells. We identify several receptors important for the postprandial and interdigestive regulation of motilin release.

Re-evaluation of sodium, potassium and calcium salts of fatty acids (E 470a) and magnesium salts of fatty acids (E 470b) as food additives.

Project description:The EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food (ANS) provides a scientific opinion re-evaluating the safety of sodium, potassium and calcium salts of fatty acids (E 470a) and magnesium salts of fatty acids (E 470b) when used as food additives. In 1991, the Scientific Committee on Food (SCF) established a group acceptable daily intake (ADI) 'not specified' for the fatty acids (myristic-, stearic-, palmitic- and oleic acid) and their salts. The sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium salts of fatty acids are expected to dissociate in the gastrointestinal tract to fatty acid carboxylates and their corresponding cations. There were no data on subchronic toxicity, chronic toxicity, reproductive and developmental toxicity of the salts of fatty acids. There was no concern for mutagenicity of calcium caprylate, potassium oleate and magnesium stearate. From a carcinogenicity study with sodium oleate, a no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) could not be identified but the substance was considered not to present a carcinogenic potential. Palmitic- and stearic acid which are the main fatty acids in E 470a and E 470b were already considered of no safety concern in the re-evaluation of the food additive E 570. The fatty acid moieties of E 470a and E 470b contributed maximally for 5% to the overall intake of saturated fatty acids from all dietary sources. Overall, the Panel concluded that there was no need for a numerical ADI and that the food additives sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium salts of fatty acids (E 470a and E 470b) were of no safety concern at the reported uses and use levels.

Bile salts of germ-free domestic fowl and pigs.

Project description:1. The bile of germ-free domestic fowl contains taurine conjugates of 3alpha,7alpha-dihydroxy-5beta-cholan-24-oic acid (chenodeoxycholic acid), 3alpha,7alpha,12alpha-trihydroxy-5beta-cholan-24-oic acid (cholic acid) and its 5alpha-epimer (allocholic acid): that of germ-free pigs contains glycine and taurine conjugates of chenodeoxycholic acid, 3alpha,6alpha-dihydroxy-5beta-cholan-24-oic acid (hyodeoxycholic acid), 3alpha,6alpha,7alpha-trihydroxy-5beta-cholan-24-oic acid (hyocholic acid) and (probably) cholic acid. Keto acids were not found. 2. Allocholic acid and hyodeoxycholic acid are thus proved to be primary bile acids in intact animals. 3. The evolutionary and biochemical implications of these findings are briefly considered.

Fatty acid synthesis is inhibited by inefficient utilization of unusual fatty acids for glycerolipid assembly.

Project description:Degradation of unusual fatty acids through β-oxidation within transgenic plants has long been hypothesized as a major factor limiting the production of industrially useful unusual fatty acids in seed oils. Arabidopsis seeds expressing the castor fatty acid hydroxylase accumulate hydroxylated fatty acids up to 17% of total fatty acids in seed triacylglycerols; however, total seed oil is also reduced up to 50%. Investigations into the cause of the reduced oil phenotype through in vivo [(14)C]acetate and [(3)H]2O metabolic labeling of developing seeds surprisingly revealed that the rate of de novo fatty acid synthesis within the transgenic seeds was approximately half that of control seeds. RNAseq analysis indicated no changes in expression of fatty acid synthesis genes in hydroxylase-expressing plants. However, differential [(14)C]acetate and [(14)C]malonate metabolic labeling of hydroxylase-expressing seeds indicated the in vivo acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity was reduced to approximately half that of control seeds. Therefore, the reduction of oil content in the transgenic seeds is consistent with reduced de novo fatty acid synthesis in the plastid rather than fatty acid degradation. Intriguingly, the coexpression of triacylglycerol synthesis isozymes from castor along with the fatty acid hydroxylase alleviated the reduced acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity, restored the rate of fatty acid synthesis, and the accumulation of seed oil was substantially recovered. Together these results suggest a previously unidentified mechanism that detects inefficient utilization of unusual fatty acids within the endoplasmic reticulum and activates an endogenous pathway for posttranslational reduction of fatty acid synthesis within the plastid.

Specific bile acids inhibit hepatic fatty acid uptake in mice.

Project description:UnlabelledBile acids are known to play important roles as detergents in the absorption of hydrophobic nutrients and as signaling molecules in the regulation of metabolism. We tested the novel hypothesis that naturally occurring bile acids interfere with protein-mediated hepatic long chain free fatty acid (LCFA) uptake. To this end, stable cell lines expressing fatty acid transporters as well as primary hepatocytes from mouse and human livers were incubated with primary and secondary bile acids to determine their effects on LCFA uptake rates. We identified ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and deoxycholic acid (DCA) as the two most potent inhibitors of the liver-specific fatty acid transport protein 5 (FATP5). Both UDCA and DCA were able to inhibit LCFA uptake by primary hepatocytes in a FATP5-dependent manner. Subsequently, mice were treated with these secondary bile acids in vivo to assess their ability to inhibit diet-induced hepatic triglyceride accumulation. Administration of DCA in vivo via injection or as part of a high-fat diet significantly inhibited hepatic fatty acid uptake and reduced liver triglycerides by more than 50%.ConclusionThe data demonstrate a novel role for specific bile acids, and the secondary bile acid DCA in particular, in the regulation of hepatic LCFA uptake. The results illuminate a previously unappreciated means by which specific bile acids, such as UDCA and DCA, can impact hepatic triglyceride metabolism and may lead to novel approaches to combat obesity-associated fatty liver disease.
