RNA-seq of primary islets in HFD_DMSO，HFD_CGP and ND mice

ABSTRACT: We investigated the underlying molecular mechanism of CGP 57380's effects in type 2 diabetes by comparing gene expression of whole primary islets isolated from HFD_DMSO,HFD_CGP and ND mice by RNA sequencing.C57BL/6 mice were fed an HFD for 4 months and then oral gavage DMSO and CGP 57380 for about 1 month separately to studied gene-expression differences resulting in HFD-induced hyperinsulinemia and metabolic abnormities.At the same time ,explore the therapeutic effect of CGP 57380 on type 2 diabetes,and the changes in the signal pathways in it.Gene set-enrichment ananlysis was performed using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genomes algorithms and MSigDB software.The most enriched pathways were linked to pathyways associated with PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, pancreatic secretion and NF-kappa B signaling pathway.

Project description:The goals and objectives: To study Type 2 diabetes progression and the development of insulin resistance in two animal models with and without a high fat diet superimposed on these models. Background: Diabetes is a systemic metabolic imbalance involving multiple tissues/organs, and an early hallmark feature of this disease state is insulin resistance. Multifactorial interactions of genetics, prenatal environmental factors (fetal programming) and postnatal environmental factors (nutrition and activity) likely contribute to the diabetic phenotype.Animal models can serve as a valuable tool for studying diabetes disease progression and for identifying useful biomarkers of type 2 diabetes. Several inbred rodent models are available for diabetes related studies. The GK rat is an obvious choice among available inbred models as the genetic basis for this inheritable form of diabetes is polygenic (5), unlike most other inbred rodent models that exhibit single gene defects. Many of the characteristics of the GK rat mirror human diabetes (hyperglycemia, glucose intolerance, insulin resistance), although hyperlipidemia does not appear to be prominent in the GK rat. Due to its polygenic mode of inheritance and 100% penetrance, the GK rat may be a useful model for human diabetes. Induced animal models can also be useful in diabetes studies. One such model is metabolic syndrome resulting from experimentally induced fetal programming (produced by maternal malnutrition or by exposure to corticosteroids in the third trimester). Both in humans and animals, accumulating evidence suggests that alterations in the human fetal environment can result in permanent physiologic changes that manifest as increased incidence of adult onset pathology. Numerous epidemiological studies have forged a strong link between low birth weight and the development of metabolic syndrome in adulthood. From such observations has arisen the concept of âfetal programmingâ whereby exposure to some factor(s) during crucial stages in development can permanently alter or âresetâ physiologic/metabolic functions. In the rat, exposure to corticosteroids during a âwindowâ in third trimester gestation (CS programming) results in fetal growth retardation and insulin resistance in adult offspring. Genetic factors play a primarily role in the etiology of diabetes in the GK rat, whereas fetal environmental factors are causative in CS programming. (It should be noted that although altered fetal environmental effects, most likely stemming from maternal hyperglycemia, have been implicated to play some role in the decreased pancreatic B cell mass in GK rats, these effects occur earlier in gestation and therefore differ from programming by CS in late gestation.) A comparison of the development of insulin resistance in the GK rat with development in the CS programmed rat will provide insight into genetic and fetal environmental factors in disease development. Superimposing dietary alterations (i.e., high fat feeding) (11) on both animal models may aid in the dissection of multiple interacting factors (genetic, fetal environmental factors, postnatal environmental factors) on the development and progression of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Such studies may also aid in the identification of useful biomarkers for insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in humans. Proposed research: Experiments are designed to study disease progression and the development of insulin resistance in two animal models: the GK rat and the CS programmed rat, with and without a high fat diet superimposed on these models. Animals will be maintained in our facility from weaning (GK rats) or birth (CS programmed - WKY), and body weights taken weekly. Appropriate diets (normal or high fat) will be introduced at weaning. Groups of animals (N=6) will be sacrificed at 5 different ages: 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 weeks. Plasma samples will be analyzed for markers of hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, dyslipidimia, and for selected other hormonal factors which may contribute to disease etiology (adiponectin, leptin, corticosterone). At sacrifice, muscle is harvested, flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and warehoused in our tissue collection maintained at - 80 degrees C for this and possible future work. Study will initially focus on examination of selected molecular markers of insulin resistance at the mRNA level in rat liver (PEPCK, PDK4). Experiment Overall Design: The study contains: 50 liver samples from GK (GotoKakizake) rats and 51 liver sample from WKY (WistarKyoto) rats feeded with normal diet (ND) and high fat diet (HFD) and sacrificed at 5 different ages: 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 weeks. So, each time point contains 5 GK samples with ND, 5 GK samples with HFD, 5 WKY samples with ND and 5 WKY samples with HFD.
