Project description:The aim of the study was to investigate the role of vitamin D on adipocyte development. To this end, rat dams (Sprague-Dawley rats ) were fed diets with 0 or 1,000 IU vitamin D3 per kg diet 5 weeks prior to conception until the end of lactation. By using high-density DNA microarrays, we analyzed the gene-expression profile of mesenterial adipose tissue of both groups of newborn rats.

Project description:Vitamin D is an important calcium-regulating hormone with diverse functions in numerous tissues including the brain. Increasing evidence suggests that vitamin D may play a role in maintaining cognitive function and that vitamin D deficiency may accelerate age-related cognitive decline. Using aging rodents, we attempted to model the range of human serum vitamin D levels, from deficient to sufficient, to test whether vitamin D could preserve or improve cognitive function with aging. For 5-6 months, middle-aged F344 rats were fed diets containing low, medium (typical amount) or high vitamin D3 (100, 1000 or 10,000 IU/kg diet, respectively) and then hippocampal-dependent learning and memory were tested in the Morris water maze. Rats on high vitamin D achieved the highest blood levels (in the sufficient range) and significantly outperformed low and medium groups on maze reversal, a particularly challenging task that detects more subtle changes in memory. In addition to calcium-related processes, hippocampal gene expression microarrays identified pathways pertaining to synaptic transmission, cell communication and G-protein function as being up-regulated with high vitamin D. Basal synaptic transmission also was enhanced corroborating observed effects on gene expression and learning and memory. Our studies demonstrate a causal relationship between vitamin D status and cognitive function and suggest that vitamin D-mediated changes in hippocampal gene expression may improve the likelihood of successful brain aging.

Project description:The main object of this study was to evaluate the impact of different levels of vitamin A (VA) and arachidonic acid (ARA) in relation to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on mineralization and gene expression in Atlantic cod larvae (Gadus morhua). A two-way factorial design was used to identify possible interactions between the nutrients. First-feeding larvae were fed enriched rotifers from start-feeding until 29 days post hatch (dph). Larvae in four tanks were fed one of the following diets: control (EPA/ARA ratio: 15.8, 0.9 µg VA g-1 wet wt.), control+VA (EPA/ARA ratio: 15.8, 7.8 µg VA g-1 wet wt.), High ARA (EPA/ARA ratio: 0.9, 1.5 µg VA g-1 wet wt.) or High ARA +VA (EPA/ARA ratio: 0.9, 12.0 µg VA g-1 wet wt.). There was no difference in survival (33-40%) between the groups. Larvae fed High ARA+VA were shorter at 29 dph. The larvae fed High ARA+VA had significantly less mineralized bones, showing significant interaction effects between VA and ARA. Although transcriptomic analysis using a custom-made microarray did not reveal any interaction effects, it was found that high ARA diets altered the transcription of more genes than control +VA diets. Furthermore, blgap1 , blgap2 and col10a1 were all down-regulated in larvae fed High ARA-diets and to a lesser extent by Control +VA diet. Lower expression in the High ARA+VA diets compared to ARA and VA diets indicated an additive effect on mineralization. In conclusion, this study showed that the dietary increase in ARA and VA altered the skeletal metabolism during larval A. cod development, most likely through signaling pathways specific for each nutrient rather than an interaction. The present study also demonstrates that VA could affect the larval response to ARA, even within the accepted non-toxic/non-deficient range.

Project description:Background The composition of intramuscular fat depends on genetic and environmental factors, including the diet. In pigs, we identified a haplotype of three SNP mutations in the steaoryl-coA desaturase (SCD) gene promoter associated with higher content of monounsaturated fatty acids in intramuscular fat. The second of these three SNPs (rs80912566, C>T) affected a putative retinol response element in the SCD promoter. The effect of dietary vitamin A restriction over intramuscular fat content is controversial in pigs as it seems to depend on the genetic line and the duration of the restriction. This study aims to investigate changes in the muscle transcriptome in SCD rs80912566_TT and CC pigs fed with and without vitamin A supplement during the fattening period. Results Vitamin A did not affect carcass fattening traits and fatty acid composition in muscle, but we observed an interaction between vitamin A and SCD genotype on the desaturation of muscle fatty acids. The diet without vitamin A supplement tended to enlarge the compositional differences between genotypes. The interaction between diet and genotype was also evident at the transcriptome level, the highest number of differentially expressed genes were detected between SCD rs80912566_TT pigs fed with the two diets. Conclusions Restricting dietary vitamin A during the fattening period did not improve intramuscular fat content despite relevant changes in muscle gene expression, both in coding and non-coding genes. Despite this, there was a significant interaction between the SCD genotype and the dietary vitamin A, which affected the quality of the meat through a change in the saturation index of intramuscular fat and activated general pathways of retinol response in a SCD genotype-dependant manner.

Project description:Osteoclast differentiation and activation requires the presence of osteoblast-derived factors such as Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL). RANKL is influenced by osteotropic hormones such as calcitriol 1,25(OH)2D3 (vitamin D).The aim of this study is to evaluate the combined effect of vitamin D and M-CSF on murine bone marrow and on murine spleen cell, to define when the inhibitory effect of vitamin D plus M-CSF is maximum and what are the mechanisms involved in this inhibition. When murine bone marrow cells were cultured with 10-8 M vitamin D and 60 ng/ml M-CSF, there was a significant decrease in osteoclasts formation (3.13±3.44),compared to bone marrow cells cultured with vitamin D alone (80.86 ±45.02; p<0.05). Even when the amount of M-CSF added to the bone marrow cell culture was 1 ng/ml there was a 40% decrease in osteoclasts formation. Since bone marrow contains also stromal cells, we eliminate their influence by culturing murine spleen cells with 10-8 M vitamin D, 60 ng/ml M-CSF and RANKL 20 ng/ml. There was a significant decrease in osteoclasts formation (41±14.14) compared to spleen cells cultured with M-CSF and RANKL (215.67±46.44); p<0.05). These data lead to hypothesize that vitamin D and M-CSF together exert an inhibitory effect on osteoclast differentiation and development. To define the cellular mechanism involved in this inhibition we analyzed gene array data of bone marrow cells cultured with vitamin D and compare them with the cells cultured with vitamin D and M-CSF. Activation Toll like receptors after addition of vitamin D plus M-CSF to bone marrow cells appears to be involved in the inhibition of osteoclast differentiation. Keywords: parallel sample
