Project description:The type and the amount of dietary fat have a significant influence on the metabolic pathways involved in the development of obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes type 2 and cardiovascular diseases. However, it is unknown to what extent this modulation is achieved through DNA methylation. We assessed the effects of cholesterol intake, the proportion of energy intake derived from fat, the ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) to saturated fatty acids (SFA), the ratio of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) to SFA, and the ratio of (MUFA+PUFA) to SFA on genome-wide DNA methylation patterns in normal-weight and obese children. We determined the genome-wide methylation profile in blood of 69 Greek preadolescents (~10 y old), as well as their dietary intake for two consecutive weekdays and one weekend day. The methylation levels of four sites and a CpG island were significantly correlated with total fat intake. The methylation levels of 13 islands and 16 sites were significantly correlated with PUFA/SFA; of 35 islands and 158 sites with MUFA/SFA; and of 50 islands and 130 sites with (MUFA+PUFA)/SFA. We found significant gene enrichment in 26 pathways for PUFA/SFA, including the leptin pathway, and a significant enrichment in three pathways for (MUFA+PUFA)/SFA. Our results suggest that the quality, and to a lesser extent the quantity of fat intake, influences DNA methylation, including genes involved in metabolism. Thus, specific changes in DNA methylation may play an important role in the mechanisms involved in the physiological responses to different types of dietary fat.

Project description:Prolonged intervention studies investigating molecular metabolism are necessary for a deeper understanding of dietary effects on health. Here we provide mechanistic information about metabolic adaptation to fat-rich diets. Healthy men ingested saturated (SFA) or poly unsaturated (PUFA) fat-rich diets for six weeks during weight maintenance. Hyperinsulinemic clamps combined with leg balance technique revealed unchanged peripheral insulin sensitivity, independent of fatty acid type. Both diets increased fat oxidation potential in muscle. Hepatic insulin clearance increased, while glucose production, de novo lipogenesis and plasma triacylglycerol decreased. High fat intake changed the plasma proteome in immune-supporting direction and the gut microbiome displayed changes at taxonomical and functional level with PUFA. In mice, eucaloric feeding of human PUFA and SFA diets lowered hepatic triacylglycerol content compared to low-fat fed control mice, and induced adaptations in the liver supportive of decreased gluconeogenesis and lipogenesis. Intake of fat-rich diets thus induces extensive metabolic adaptations enabling disposition of dietary fat without metabolic complications.

Project description:Dietary fat quality may influence skeletal muscle lipid handling and fat accumulation, thereby modulating insulin sensitivity. Objective: To examine acute effects of meals with various fatty acid (FA) compositions on skeletal muscle FA handling and postprandial insulin sensitivity in obese insulin resistant men. Design: In a single-blinded randomized crossover study, 10 insulin resistant men consumed three high-fat mixed-meals (2.6MJ). Meals were high in saturated FA (SFA), in monounsaturated FA (MUFA) or in polyunsaturated FA (PUFA). Fasting and postprandial skeletal muscle FA handling were examined by measuring arterio-venous concentration differences across forearm muscle. [2H2]-palmitate was infused intravenously to label endogenous triacylglycerol (TAG) and FFA in the circulation and [U-13C]-palmitate was added to the meal to label chylomicron-TAG. Skeletal muscle biopsies were taken to assess intramuscular lipid metabolism and gene expression. Results: Insulin and glucose responses (AUC) after SFA meal were significantly higher compared with PUFA meal (p=0.003 and 0.028, respectively). Uptake of TAG-derived FA was significantly lower in the early postprandial phase after PUFA meal as compared with other meals (AUC60-120, p<0.001). The PUFA meal induced less transcriptional downregulation of oxidative pathways compared with other meals. The fractional synthetic rate was higher in DAG and PL fraction after MUFA and PUFA meal. Conclusion: Intake of a PUFA meal reduced TAG-derived skeletal muscle FA uptake, which was accompanied by higher postprandial insulin sensitivity and a tendency towards a higher muscle lipid turnover. These data suggest that the effects of replacement of SFA by PUFA may contribute to less muscle lipid uptake and may be therefore protective against the development of insulin resistance.

Project description:Early perturbations in vascular health can be detected by imposing subjects to a high fat (HF) challenge and measure response capacity. Subtle responses can be determined by assessment of whole-genome transcriptional changes. We aimed to magnify differences in health by comparing gene-expression changes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) towards a high MUFA or SFA challenge between subjects with different cardiovascular disease risk profiles and to identify fatty-acid specific gene-expression pathways. METHODS AND RESULTS: In a cross-over study, 17 lean and 15 obese men (50-70y) received two 95g fat shakes, high in SFAs or MUFAs. PBMC gene-expression profiles were assessed fasted and 4h postprandially. Comparisons were made between groups and shakes. During fasting, 294 genes were significantly different expressed between lean and obese. The challenge increased differences to 607 genes after SFA and 2516 genes after MUFA. In both groups, SFA decreased expression of cholesterol biosynthesis and uptake genes and increased cholesterol efflux genes. MUFA increased inflammatory genes and PPAR? targets involved in ?-oxidation. CONCLUSION: Based upon gene-expression changes, we conclude that a HF challenge magnifies differences in health, especially after MUFA. Our findings also demonstrate how SFAs and MUFAs exert distinct effects on lipid handling pathways in immune cells. In a double-blind cross-over study, 17 lean and 15 obese men (aged 50-70y) received two high-fat milkshakes containing 95g fat, either high in saturated (SFA) or monounsaturated (MUFA) fatty acids. PBMC gene expression profiles were determined before and 4h after shake consumption.

Project description:Palm and coconut oils are linked to cardiovascular disease and diabetes because of their high saturated fatty acid (SFA) content but exactly how exogenous SFAs, but not unsaturated fatty acids (UFA), are toxic to cells remains unknown. In insulin-producing, β-cells of the Islets of Langerhans, loss of which exacerbates diabetes, we found that SFAs but not UFAs were toxic because they disable a highly conserved lipid droplet biogenesis machinery. We show that palmitate (a major SFA of these oils), but not palmitoleic or oleic, S-acylates the highly conserved ER-resident FITM2 protein, required for lipid coalescence and droplet budding from the ER. The S-acylation marks FITM2 for ubiquitination and proteosomal degradation, leaving SFAs within the ER instead safe sequestration within lipid droplets. ER-stress ensues with rapid induction of ER stress leading to β-cell apoptosis. Specific deletion of FITM2 in β-cells disrupts calcium signaling and key β-cell TFs and exacerbates high fat diet-induced ER stress and diabetes. Rescue by overexpression ameliorates ER-stress and β-cell apoptosis thus demonstrating an important link between lipid species and cell ability to sequester them away from the ER in the form of lipid droplets.

Project description:High MC-SFA intake resulted in a downregulation of gene expression of pathways related to complement system and inflammation, and an upregulation of gene expression of pathways related to citric acid cycle, electron transport chain and lipid metabolism in adipose tissue. Based on our results, we hypothesize that the beneficial effects of MC-SFAs on prevention of fat accumulation may be mediated by increases in gene expression related to energy metabolism in the adipose tissue. Additionally, decreases in inflammation-related gene expression in the adipose may potentially have beneficial effects in relation to cardiometabolic diseases.

Project description:We report a conserved transcriptomic signature of reduced fatty acid and lipid metabolism gene expression in human post-mortem ALS spinal cord and a Drosophila model of the most common genetic cause of FTD/ALS, a repeat expansion in C9orf72. To investigate lipid alterations, we performed lipidomics on C9FTD/ALS iPSC-neurons and post-mortem FTLD brain tissue. This revealed a common and specific reduction in phospholipid species containing polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). To determine whether this PUFA deficit contributes to neurodegeneration, we fed C9FTD/ALS flies PUFAs, which yielded a modest increase in survival. However, increasing PUFA levels specifically in neurons of the C9orf72 flies, by overexpressing fatty acid desaturase enzymes, led to a substantial extension of lifespan. Neuronal overexpression of fatty acid desaturases also suppressed stressor induced neuronal death in C9FTD/ALS patient iPSC-neurons. These data implicate neuronal fatty acid saturation in the pathogenesis of FTD/ALS and suggest that interventions to increase PUFA levels specifically within neurons will be beneficial.
