Project description:Using heterogeneous stock (HS) rats, we have identified a region on rat chromosome 1 that maps multiple diabetic traits. We sought to use global expression analysis to determine if genes within this region are differentially expressed between HS rats with normal glucose tolerance and those with glucose intolerance HS rats were euthanized at 17 weeks of age and liver was immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. RNA was extracted from liver of 23 HS rats with glucose intolerance and 23 HS rats with normal glucose. The Affymetrix 230_2 array was used to probe transcript abundance levels.

Project description:Metabolic syndrome is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation which plays an important role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance. Salsalate is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that reduces levels of inflammatory mediators. In the current study, we tested the effects of salsalate on inflammation, oxidative stress and metabolic disturbances in an animal model of inflammation and metabolic syndrome, using spontaneously hypertensive rats that transgenically express human C-reactive protein (SHR-CRP). We treated 15-month-old male transgenic SHR-CRP rats with salsalate (200 mg/kg/day) mixed as part of a standard diet for 4 weeks. A corresponding untreated control group of male transgenic SHR-CRP rats were fed a standard diet without salsalate. In a similar fashion, we studied a group of nontransgenic SHR treated with salsalate and an untreated group of nontransgenic SHR controls. Parameters of inflammation and glucose and lipid metabolism were measured using standard methods. Statistical significance was evaluated by two-way ANOVA. In the SHR-CRP transgenic strain, we found that salsalate treatment decreased circulating levels of inflammatory markers TNFï¡ and MCP-1 and levels of human CRP as well as reduced levels of lipopreroxidation products in the liver and kidney cortex. Lipidomics analysis of eicosanoids confirmed anti-inflammatory effects of salsalate. Reduced inflammation and oxidative stress were associated with increased sensitivity of skeletal muscles to insulin action and greater tolerance to glucose and with reduced glucose oxidation and incorporation in brown adipose tissue (BAT). In SHR controls with no CRP-induced inflammation, salsalate treatment was associated with reduced body weight, lower levels of serum free fatty acids, total and HDL cholesterol and increased palmitate oxidation and incorporation in BAT. Salsalate regulated lipid metabolism by affecting expression of genes from PPAR signaling pathways and inflammation by affecting expression from MAPK signaling and NOD-like receptor signaling pathways. In summary, in the presence of high levels of human CRP, salsalate reduced inflammation which was associated with reduced oxidative stress and amelioration of insulin resistance in skeletal muscle and glucose intolerance while in non-transgenic SHR rats, salsalate ameliorated dyslipidemia and activated BAT. Thus it is possible that amelioration of insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in SHR-CRP rats treated with salsalate is due to reduced inflammation while amelioration of dyslipidemia in SHR rats treated with salsalate is due to activation of BAT. These findings suggest that salsalate has metabolic effects beyond suppressing inflammation.

Project description:We aimed to address the challenge of accommodating an increasing demand for aged laboratory animals in the context of rising elderly population and research on aging-related diseases. We developed a cost-effective environmental enrichment method and assessed its impact on metabolic changes in Sprague Dawley rats' livers as a proof-of-concept organ. Twenty-four male rats were divided into four groups, with two kept in standard cages and two in modified rabbit cages. Half of each type of cage group received additional enrichment through weekly playtime in a larger cage. Over six months, the rats' weight gain was consistent across all groups, and corticosterone levels did not significantly differ. However, the control group had significantly lower DHEA and Testosterone levels at the study's end. Rats in enriched environments exhibited less distress during inspections and were more resistant to accepting treats. Animals accustomed to playpen time left their cages more easily. Overall, the study demonstrated that refining husbandry for aging rats is both simple and cost-effective, without detrimental effects on stress levels, development, or liver metabolism.

Project description:Gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM) will bring health issues for offspring. The offspring of diabetic mothers often reveal high birth weight and are prone to have obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia. It was implied that the phenotype of offspring might be influenced by intrauterine environment and planned in utero already in addition to the genetic influences.M-bM-^@M-^XProgrammingM-bM-^@M-^Y refers to the process whereby a stimulus at a critical window of development has long-term effects. A large body of studies investigated the adverse intrauterine environment was correlated with poor fetal growth and increased risk of Type 2 diabetes in the adulthood. Epigenetic mechanism has been proposed to involve in the link between environmental and nutritional factors and gene expression regulation. DNA methylation is one of the major epigenetic modifications. We hypothesized that DNA methylation changes could participate in the gene expression related to glucose intolerance in the offspring. Furthermore, DNA methylation might also determine the transgenerational disease transmission. comparison of intrauterine hyperglycemia exposed rats vs. control rats for genome-wide DNA methylation changes

Project description:Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is a potent hepatocarcinogen and peroxisome proliferator (PP) in rodents. Humans are not susceptible to peroxisome proliferation and are thought to be refractory to carcinogenesis by PFOA and other PPs. However, previous studies with rainbow trout have shown that they are also insensitive to peroxisome proliferation by the PP, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), but are still susceptible to enhanced hepatocarcinogenesis after chronic exposure. In this study, we determined whether PFOA is also a tumor promotor in trout and then examined hepatic gene expression profiles to further investigate possible mechanisms of action. Trout were initiated as fry to the hepatocarcinogen, aflatoxin B1, and then fed 200-1800 ppm PFOA in the diet for 30 weeks. Two structurally diverse PPs, clofibrate (CLOF) and DHEA, were included for comparison. Hepatic gene expression profiles were subsequently examined in animals exposed to similar doses of PFOA, DHEA and CLOF along with 5 ppm 17β-estradiol (E2; a known tumor promotor) in the diet. PFOA (1800 ppm) and DHEA treatments resulted in enhanced liver tumor incidence and multiplicity while CLOF showed no effect. Carcinogenesis seemed independent of peroxisome proliferation as no induction of peroxisomal β-oxidation and catalase activity were observed. Alternately, plasma VTG was elevated in fish fed PFOA and DHEA suggesting that estrogenic mechanisms may play a role. Both tumor promotors, PFOA and DHEA, resulted in strong correlation of transcriptional profiles with E2 by Pearson correlation (R=0.81 and 0.78, respectively). In comparison, CLOF regulated no genes in common with E2. Overall, these data suggest that the tumor promoting activities of DHEA and PFOA in trout are independent of peroxisome proliferation and may involve estrogenic mechanisms. Juvenile trout, 12-18 months old, were fed experimental diets containing 500 or 1800 ppm PFOA, 1800 ppm CLOF, 750 ppm DHEA, 5 ppm E2 or 0.15 % dimethyl sulfoxide vehicle control for 14 days. Liver samples were collected for microarray analysis. Hybridizations were performed using standard reference design with dye-swapping. For each sample, equal amounts of RNA (µg) were pooled from five fish per tank for every treatment (n=3 biological replicates per treatment). cDNA from two of the three biological replicates was dye-swapped and hybridized to two slides as technical replicates (5 arrays per treatment).
