Project description:The effect of folic acid (FA) on breast cancer (BC) risk is uncertain. We hypothesised that this uncertainty may be due, in part, to differential effects of FA between BC cells with different phenotype. To test this we investigated the effect of treatment with FA concentrations within the range of unmetabolised FA reported in humans on the expression of the transcriptomes of non-transformed (MCF10a) and cancerous (MCF7 and Hs578T) BC cells. Total RNA obtained from three breast cancer cell lines (MCF10a, MCF7, Hs578T) treated with 100nmoles/l folic acid untreated control cells. Six replicates per treatment group.

Project description:Folic acid is present in pre-natal vitamins, fortified cereal grains and multi-vitamin supplements. High intake of folic acid through these sources has resulted in populations with increased levels of serum folate and unmetabolized folic acid. Although the benefits of folic acid in the prevention of neural tube defects are undeniable, the impact of long-term consumption of folic acid on the prostate is not fully understood. In this study, we used a rodent model to test whether dietary folic acid (FA) supplementation changes prostate homeostasis and response to androgen deprivation. Although intact prostate weights do not differ between diet groups, we made the surprising observation that dietary folic acid supplementation confers partial resistance to castration-mediated prostate involution. More specifically, male mice that were fed a folic acid supplemented diet and then castrated had greater prostate wet weights, greater prostatic luminal epithelial cell heights, and more abundant RNAs encoding prostate secretory proteins compared to mice that were fed a control diet and castrated. We used RNA-seq to identify signaling pathways enriched in the castrated prostates from folic acid supplemented diet fed mice compared to control mice. We observed differential expression of genes involved in several metabolic pathways in the FA supplemented mice. Together, our results show that dietary FA supplementation can impact metabolism in the prostate and attenuate the prostate’s response to androgen deprivation. This has important implications for androgen deprivation therapies used in the treatment of prostate disease, as consumption of high levels of folic acid could reduce the efficacy of these treatments.

Project description:Maternal vitamins and micronutrients during gestational periods have profound impact on the developmemt of newborns as well as influence susceptibility to chronic conditions. Folic acid is indicated to women during pregnancies to prevent occurrence of neural tube defects in infants. Recently, evidence is emerging of the epigenetic effects of folic acid. Since epigenetic changes are crucial in developing fetus, we investigated the effect of maternal higher folic acid supplementation on the gene expression in offspring brains to identify if brain development may be affected. Our results revealed that maternal exposure of higher dose FA diet during gestation dysregulates expression of several genes in the cerebellum of both male and female pups. Dysregulated genes included several transcriptional factors, imprinted genes, neurodevelopmental genes and genes associated with autism spectrum disorder. Adult, 8- to 10-week-old C57BL/6J mice were used in all the experiments and handled according to the protocol reviewed and approved by the Institute for Basic Research Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. One week prior to mating and throughout the pregnancy two groups of female mice were fed with custom AIN-93G amino acidM-bM-^@M-^Sbased diet (Research Diet, Inc. New-Brunswick, NJ), which contained folic acid (FA) at 2mg/kg and 20 mg/kg diet. At postnatal day one (P1), from FA at 2 mg/kg group: male pupsM-bM-^@M-^Y n=3 and female pupsM-bM-^@M-^Y n=3 were sacrificed by cervical dislocation and cerebellum tissues were collected. From FA at 20 mg/kg group: male pupsM-bM-^@M-^Y n=6 and female pups n=6 were similarly processed. All tissues were snapped frozen and stored at -80M-BM-0C until downstream analysis was performed.

Project description:Folic acid deficiency is common worldwide and is linked to intestinal flora imbalance. The intestinal microbial utilization of folic acid based on model animals faces the challenges of repeatability and individual variability. In this study, we built an in vitro fecal slurry culture model deficient in folic acid. We examined the effects of supplementation with different forms of folic acid (5-methyltetrahydrofolate and non-reduced folic acid) on the modulation of intestinal flora. 16S rDNA gene sequencing showed alpha diversity increased after folic acid supplementation compared to fermentation samples with folic acid deficiency. In the non-reduced folic acid (FA) group, the relative abundance of the Firmicutes phylum dropped to 56.7%, whereas in the 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF) supplementation group, it grew to 64.9%. Lactobacillus genera became more prevalent, reaching 22.8% and 30.8%, respectively. Additionally, Bifidobacterium and Pedioccus, two common probiotic bacteria, were in higher abundance. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) analysis showed that supplementation with folic acid (non-reduced folic acid, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate) decreased acetic acid and increased the fermentation yield of isobutyric acid. The in vitro fecal slurry culture model developed in this study can be utilized as a human folic acid deficiency model for studying intestinal microbiota and demonstrated that both 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and non-reduced folic acid have effects on the regulation of intestinal microecology.

Project description:Doxorubicin (DOXO), a chemotherapeutic drug, is cardiotoxic. We hypothesized that folic acid is an effective therapeutic agent in a mouse model of DOXO-induced cardiotoxicity. We performed genome-wide expression profiling to identify the underlying mechanisms. Male C57Bl6 2-mo old mice received DOXO (1x20 mg/kg, ip) or saline (sham). FA (10 mg/d) or placebo (plac) was administered 7d before DOXO administration until the end of the experiment (10d).

Project description:Studies have indicated that altered maternal micronutrients and vitamins influence the development and susceptibility of newborns to chronic diseases. Among these, folic acid (FA) plays a key role in the synthesis and repair of DNA, along with maintenance of epigenetic DNA methylation. Deficiency of FA has been associated with the pathogenesis of neural tube defects. Since FA can modulate DNA methylation and affect gene expression, we investigated the effect of gestational FA supplementation on the expression of genes in the offspring brain. Our results suggest that a maternal ten-fold increase in FA supplementation alters the expression and dysregulates a number of genes in the offspring brain, including many involved in development. While a number of genes that were dysregulated were common to both male and female pups, there were sex differences in gene expression changes.
