The effects of a novel oral nutritional supplement as compared to standard care on body composition, physical function and skeletal muscle mRNA expression in Dutch older adults with (or at risk of) undernutrition

ABSTRACT: In a randomized controlled trial, 82 older adults (>65y) with (or at risk of) undernutrition (n=82) were randomly allocated to 12 weeks of supplementation with a novel supplement (586 kcal, 22 g protein of which 50% whey and 50% casein, 206 mg ursolic acid, 7 g free BCAAs, 11 µg vitamin D) or standard care (600 kcal, 24g protein of which 100% casein, 4 µg vitamin D). Body weight increased significantly in the 12 weeks, both in the intervention group (+1.6 ± 0.2 kg, p<.0001) and in the standard care group (+1.8 ± 0.2 kg, p<.0001). Gait speed during 4m and 400m tests improved over time in the intervention group, whereas the standard care showed no improvements (time*treatment effects 400m: p=0.038 and 4m: p=0.048). Gene sets related to mitochondrial functioning were strongly upregulated in the participants receiving the intervention product. We showed that a novel oral nutritional supplement improves gait speed in older adults via improvements in mitochondrial functioning.

Project description:To profile the expression of circulating miRNAs in a mouse model of diet-induced obesity (DIO) with subsequent weight-reduction with low-fat diet (LFD), eighteen C57BL/6 male mice were grouped into three subgroups as: (1) Control: the mice fed with the standard AIN-76A (fat: 11.5 kcal%) diet for 12 wks; (2) DIO: the mice fed with 58 kcal% high-fat diet for 12 wks; (3) DIO+LFD: the mice fed with high-fat diet for 8 wks to induce obesity, then changed to 10.5 kcal% low-fat diet for subsequent 4 wks. C57BL/6 mice were purchased from BioLasco (Taipei, Taiwan). All housing conditions were maintained, and surgical procedures, including analgesia, were performed in an Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care International (AAALAC)-accredited SPF facility according to national and institutional guidelines. In this experiment, eighteen C57BL/6 wild type male mice were randomly grouped into three subgroups (n=6 in each group): (1) Control: the control mice were fed ad libitum a standard AIN-76A (fat: 11.5 kcal%) diet for 12 wks; (2) DIO: the mice were fed ad libitum a 58 kcal% HFD (D12331; Research Diets Inc., New Brunswick, NJ) for 12 wks to induce obesity; (3) DIO+LFD: the mice fed ad libitum a 58 kcal% HFD (D12331) for 8 wks to induce obesity, then continued the feeding of 10.5 kcal% LFD (D 12329; Research Diets Inc.) for additional 4 wks. Weight measurements were performed on a weekly basis to for these three groups of mice. Evaluation of blood glucose levels was performed at the beginning and in the end of the experiment to confirm that the HFD-fed mice developed an obese and insulin resistant phenotype. After the end of experiment at 12w, all mice were killed. The abdominal WAT of each mice was removed and weighted. Paraffin-embedded abdominal WAT was sectioned at 5 M-NM-<m and stained with hematoxylin and eosin to measure mean adipocyte area. A volume of 1 mL of whole blood was collected into a plain tube and allowed to clot for 1 hour. The sera samples were aliquoted after centrifugation at 3,000 M-CM-^W g for 10 minutes and stored at M-bM-^HM-^R80M-BM-0C until further analysis.

Project description:The prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MS) is rapidly increasing all over the world. Consequently, there is an urgent need for more effective intervention strategies. Both animal and human studies indicate that lipid oversupply to skeletal muscle can result in insulin resistance which is one of the charecteristices of the MS. C57BL/6J mice were fed a low fat (10 kcal%) palm oil diet or a high fat (45 kcal%; HF) palm oil diet for 3 or 28 days. By combining transcriptomics with protein and lipid analyses we aimed to better understand the molecular events underlying the early onset of the MS. Short-term HF-feeding led to altered expression levels of genes involved in a variety of biological processes including morphogenesis, energy metabolism, lipogenesis and immune function. Protein analysis showed increased levels of the myosin heavy chain, slow fiber type protein and the complexes II, III, IV and V of the oxidative phosphorylation. Furthermore, we observed that the main mitochondrial membrane phospholipids, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, contained more saturated fatty acids. Altogether, these results point to a morphological as well as a metabolic adaptation by promoting a more oxidative fiber type. We hypothesize that after this early adaptation, a continued transcriptional down-regulation of genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation will result in decreased oxidative capacity at a later stage. Together with increased saturation of phospholipids of the mitochondrial membrane this can result in decreased mitochondrial function which is a hallmark observed in insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Keywords: diet intervention and time course In the present study we investigated the short versus the long term effects of a high fat diet on the mouse muscle transcriptome by performing a genome-wide analysis of high fat diet-responsive genes. C57BL/6J mice were fed a low fat (LF) diet (10 kcal% palm oil) or a high fat (HF) diet (45 kcal% palm oil) for 3 or 28 days. Total RNA samples (n = 6 per diet per time point) were individually hybridised tot the Affymatrix mouse genome 430 2.0 array.
