Epigenetic and metabolomic data from type 2 diabetes adolescents

ABSTRACT: Objective: Rates of type 2 diabetes (T2D) among adolescents are on the rise. Epigenetic changes could be associated with the metabolic alterations in adolescents with T2D. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional integrated analysis of DNA methylation data from peripheral blood mononuclear cells with serum metabolomic data from First Nation adolescents with T2D and controls participating in the Improving Renal Complications in Adolescents with type 2 diabetes through REsearch (iCARE) cohort study, to explore the molecular changes in adolescents with T2D. Results: Our analysis showed that 43 serum metabolites and 36 differentially methylated regions (DMR) were associated with T2D. Several DMRs were located near the transcriptional start site of genes with established roles in metabolic disease and associated with altered serum metabolites (e.g. glucose, leucine, and gamma-glutamylisoleucine). These included the free fatty acid receptor-1 (FFAR1), upstream transcription factor-2 (USF2), and tumor necrosis factor-related protein-9 (C1QTNF9), among others. Conclusions: We identified DMRs and metabolites that merit further investigation to determine their significance in controlling gene expression and metabolism which could define T2D risk in adolescents.

Plasma metabolites of lipid metabolism associate with diabetic polyneuropathy in a cohort with screen-tested type 2 diabetes: ADDITION-Denmark

Project description:The global rise in type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with a concomitant increase in diabetic complications. Diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN), the most frequent T2D complication, is characterized by sensory peripheral nerve damage. Although managing glucose effectively slows DPN progression in type 1 diabetes patients, it has limited efficacy in neuropathic T2D patients. The metabolic syndrome (MetS) recently emerged as a major risk factor for DPN; however, the metabolites associated with MetS that correlate with DPN are unknown. We conducted a global plasma metabolomics analysis from a cohort of patients enrolled in the Anglo-Danish-Dutch study of Intensive Treatment of Diabetes in Primary Care (ADDITION), including healthy control subjects, T2D patients, and T2D DPN patients. We identified 15 total plasma metabolites that were altered in T2D DPN patients, including lipids, amino acids, and energy-related metabolites. We evaluated the correlation between these metabolites and all lipid species to identify major changes in both plasma free fatty acids and complex lipids in T2D DPN patients, and found significant alterations in the abundance of long-chain saturated fatty acids, acylcarnitines, and sphingolipids. Our study suggests that DPN in T2D is associated with novel alterations in plasma metabolites related to lipid metabolism.

RNA-seq from the liver and ileum of mice on ND, WD, and WD with either Lactobacillus gasseri or Lactobacillus johnsonii

Project description:Type 2 diabetes (T2D), the most common form of diabetes, is one of the leading causes of death in the USA. Diet, genetics, environment, and the gut microbes are important factors causing T2D. However, the exactmechanisms by which these factors induce the disease are still unclear. Western diet-induced obesity mimicked the conditions of metabolic syndrome and T2D in mice. Concurrent changes in the bacterial abundance and composition in ileum and stool of mice indicated that the metabolic alterations are associated with microbes.Using a transkingdom network and causal inference analysis, we identified candidate microbes that can potentially mediate changes in metabolic health. In line with our predictions, supplementing mice with the beneficial microbial candidates ameliorated diet induced diabetes in mice. Transcriptomic studies showed that these microbes improved metabolic parameters by regulating mitochondrial processes in the liver. Using systems biology network analyses, followed by experimental validation, we identified key microbes and pathways regulating glucose metabolism. This research aims to uncover the mechanisms of microbiota dependent glucose metabolism to advance treatment of T2D.

Increased SRF Transcriptional Activity is a Novel Signature of Insulin Resistance in Humans and Mice

Project description:Insulin resistance in skeletal muscle is a key phenotype associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and is even present in offspring of diabetic parents. However, molecular mediators of insulin resistance remain unclear. We find that the top-ranking gene set in expression analysis of muscle from humans with T2D and normoglycemic insulin resistant subjects with parental family history (FH+) of T2D is increased expression of actin cytoskeleton genes regulated by serum response factor (SRF) and its coactivator MKL1. Furthermore, the SRF activator STARS is upregulated in FH+ and T2D and inversely correlated with insulin sensitivity. These patterns are recapitulated in insulin resistant mice, and linked to alterations in two other regulators of this pathway: reduced G-actin and increased nuclear localization of MKL1. Both genetic and pharmacologic manipulation of STARS/MKL1/SRF pathway significantly alter insulin action: 1) Overexpression of MKL1 or reduction in G-actin decreased insulin-stimulated Akt phosphorylation; 2) reduced STARS expression increased insulin signalling and glucose uptake, and 3) SRF inhibition by CCG-1423 reduced nuclear MKL1, improved glucose uptake, and improved glucose tolerance in insulin resistant mice in vivo. Thus, SRF pathway alterations are a signature of insulin resistance which may also contribute to T2D pathogenesis and be a novel therapeutic target. Skeletal muscle samples were obtained from 10 subjects with type 2 diabetes, 25 subjects with a family history of type 2 diabetes (one or both parents), and 15 subjects with no family history of type 2 diabetes. In this analysis RNA was isolated for cRNA preparation and hybridized to Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays.

Multi-omic brain and behavioral correlates of cell-free fetal DNA methylation in macaque maternal obesity models

Project description:Maternal obesity during pregnancy is associated with neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) risk. We utilized integrative multi-omics to examine maternal obesity effects on offspring neurodevelopment in rhesus macaques by comparison to lean controls and two interventions. Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) from longitudinal maternal blood-derived cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) significantly overlapped with DMRs from infant brain. The DMRs were enriched for neurodevelopmental functions, methylation-sensitive developmental transcription factor motifs, and human NDD DMRs identified from brain and placenta. Brain and cffDNA methylation levels from a large region overlapping mir-663 correlated with maternal obesity, metabolic and immune markers, and infant behavior. A DUX4 hippocampal co-methylation network correlated with maternal obesity, infant behavior, infant hippocampal lipidomic and metabolomic profiles, and maternal blood measurements of DUX4 cffDNA methylation, cytokines, and metabolites. We conclude that in this model, maternal obesity was associated with changes in the infant brain and behavior, and these differences were detectable in pregnancy through integrative analyses of cffDNA methylation with immune and metabolic factors.

Changes in CIDEA expression associate with adipocytes size and functionality in adolescent obese girls

Project description:About 20% of youth are obese with higher risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes (T2D). We have recently reported that in obese adolescents altered pattern of fat distribution is associated with insulin resistance and T2D. In particular, the high ratio of visceral AT depot (VAT) to abdominal subcutaneous AT depot (SAT) (high VAT/(VAT+SAT)) was associated with a metabolically unhealthy phenotype with high risk for insulin resistance and T2D. CIDEA (Cell death inducing DNA fragmentation factor-alpha-like A) is a member of CIDE family and it is not only involved in the promotion of cell death and DNA fragmentation but it also plays critical roles in the lipid droplets formation and growth. Here we demonstrated in abdominal SAT from adolescent obese girls with high VAT/(VAT+SAT) a significant reduction of CIDEA expression associated with an increase in fasting insulin, serum FFA and consequent insulin resistance. We also demonstrated a direct correlation between CIDEA expression and fraction of large cells and an inverse correlation with small adipocytes number and pre-adipocytes proliferation. After gaining weight, we observed an increase in adipocytes cell diameter but a decrease in CIDEA expression, and the transcriptomic analysis showed a gene profile linked to adipocyte dysfunction. Together, these data suggested that in subjects with high VAT/(VAT+SAT) decreased CIDEA expression is associated with an increase in adipocyte cell sizing and consecutive insulin resistance.

Intra- and inter-individual metabolic profiling highlights carnitine and lysophosphatidylcholine pathways as key molecular defects in type-2 diabetes

Project description:In this study we explored a unique cohort of 43 samples to build a map of metabolites varying in T2D across five different tissues (subcutaneous adipose tissue, liver, pancreatic islets, skeletal muscle and blood serum). The samples originate from the Excellence in Diabetes biobank (EXODIAB) in Sweden. To our knowledge, this is the first attempt to create a map of metabolites across various metabolic-relevant tissues for the same cohort of individuals. In total we identified 286 unique metabolites, 32% of which were significantly altered between non-diabetes and T2D. We found evidence that amino acids (AAs) and bile acids are elevated for specific tissues in T2D and significantly associated to the percentage of glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). We showed that carnitines and lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs) are the most significantly altered metabolites in muscle, liver and serum in T2D. Finally, we attempted to explore the progression to overt T2D and suggest potential biomarkers in the early development of T2D, i.e. from non-diabetes to pre-diabetes to T2D.

RNA-sequencing of healthy human skeletal myocytes

Project description:Skeletal myocytes are metabolically active and susceptible to insulin resistance, thus implicated in type 2 diabetes (T2D). This complex disease involves systemic metabolic changes and their elucidation at the systems level requires genome-wide data and biological networks. Genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) provide a network-context to integrate high-throughput data. We generated myocyte-specific RNA-seq data and investigated their correlation with proteome data. These data were then used to reconstruct a comprehensive myocyte GEM. Next, we performed a meta-analysis of six studies comparing muscle transcription in T2D versus healthy subjects. Transcriptional changes were mapped on the myocyte GEM, revealing extensive transcriptional regulation in T2D, particularly around pyruvate oxidation, branched-chain amino acid catabolism, and tetrahydrofolate metabolism, connected through the down-regulated dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase. Strikingly, the gene signature underlying this metabolic regulation successfully classifies the disease state of individual samples, suggesting that regulation of these pathways is a ubiquitous feature of myocytes in response to T2D. Isolated skeletal muscle precursor cells from six normal glucose tolerant and non-obese males and females were differentiated in vitro. RNA from fully differentiated myotubes was sequenced using RNA-seq.

Hepatic T-cell senescence is implicated in the progression of fatty liver disease in patients with type 2 diabetes

Project description:Immunosenescence and exhaustion are involved in the development and progression of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic liver diseases, including fatty liver, fibrosis, and cirrhosis, in humans. However, the relationships of the senescence and exhaustion of T cells with insulin resistance-associated liver diseases remain incompletely understood. To better define the relationship of T2D with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, 59 patients with T2D were studied.

A Broad Network of Dysregulated Protein Phosphorylation Underlies Muscle Insulin Resistance in Type 2 Diabetes

Project description:Skeletal muscle insulin resistance is the earliest defect in type 2 diabetes (T2D), preceding and predicting disease development. Whether this represents the underlying primary defect in T2D or effects of changes in hormones or circulating metabolites is unknown. To address this question, we have developed a “disease-in-a-dish” model by differentiating iPS cells from T2D patients and controls into myoblasts (iMyo) and studied their function in vitro. We find that T2D iMyos exhibit multiple defects mirroring human disease including altered insulin signaling through the IRS/AKT pathway, decreased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, and reduced mitochondrial oxidation. In addition, using global phosphoproteomics we find that T2D alters phosphorylation of a large network of targets of mTOR, S6K, PKC and other kinases including proteins involved in regulation of Rho-GTPases, mRNA splicing/processing, vesicular trafficking, gene transcription and chromatin remodeling. This cell-autonomous dysregulated phosphorylation network reveals a new dimension in the mechanism underlying insulin resistance in T2D.
