Project description:Long-term recurrent stress is a common cause of neuropsychiatric disorders. Animal models are widely used to study the pathogenesis of stress-related psychiatric disorders. The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is emerging as a powerful tool to study chronic stress and its mechanisms. Here, we developed a prolonged 11-week chronic unpredictable stress (PCUS) model in zebrafish to more fully mimic chronic stress in human populations. We also examined behavioral and neurochemical alterations in zebrafish, and attempted to modulate these states by 3-week treatment with an antidepressant fluoxetine, a neuroprotective omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), a pro-inflammatory endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and their combinations. Overall, PCUS induced severe anxiety and elevated norepinephrine levels, whereas fluoxetine (alone or combined with other agents) corrected most of these behavioral deficits. While EPA and LPS alone had little effects on the zebrafish PCUS-induced anxiety behavior, both fluoxetine (alone or in combination) and EPA restored norepinephrine levels, whereas LPS + EPA increased dopamine levels. As these data support the validity of PCUS as an effective tool to study stress-related pathologies in zebrafish, further research is needed into the ability of various conventional and novel treatments to modulate behavioral and neurochemical biomarkers of chronic stress in this model organism.

Project description:Metabolically healthy skeletal muscle is characterized by the ability to switch easily between glucose and fat oxidation, whereas loss of this ability seems to be related to insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to investigate whether different fatty acids (FAs) and the LXR ligand T0901317 affected metabolic switching in human skeletal muscle cells (myotubes). Pretreatment of myotubes with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) increased suppressibility, the ability of glucose to suppress FA oxidation, and metabolic flexibility, the ability to increase FA oxidation when changing from “fed” to “fasted” state. Adaptability, the capacity to increase FA oxidation with increasing FA availability, was increased after pretreatment with EPA, linoleic acid (LA) and palmitic acid (PA). T0901317 counteracted the effect of EPA on suppressibility and adaptability, but did not affect these parameters alone. EPA itself accumulated less, however, EPA, LA, OA and T0901317 increased the number of lipid droplets (LDs) in myotubes, whereas LD size and mitochondria amount were independent of pretreatment. Microarray analysis showed that EPA regulated more genes than the other FAs. Some pathways involved in carbohydrate metabolism were induced only by EPA. The present study suggests a possible favorable effect of EPA on skeletal muscle metabolic switching and glucose utilization. Keywords: Analysis of target gene regulation by using microarrays. Primary human myotubes, derived from 3 healthy, female donors, were preincubated with different fatty acids (oleic acid [OA], palmitic acid [PA], eicosapentaenoic acid [EPA] or linoleic acid [LA], each at 100 µM) or bovine serum albumin [BSA] (40 µM) for 24 h.

Project description:The goal of this subproject is to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) expressed in visceral (VIS) adipose tissue (gonadal fat from male C57BL/6 mice) and regulated by eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). This will provide insight into microRNAs regulated by EPA and their potential role in obesity-associated inflammation. We performed small RNA-sequencing of white (VIS) adipose tissue from high-fat diet (45% kcal from fat) supplemented with EPA (45% Kcal from fat, 6.75% EPA). Using the Gunaratne Next-Generation pipeline (published in Creighton et al. 2009), miRNA expression profiles were identified. Counts of each unique read were normalized to total usable reads, and had 40 counts added. We mapped about 13.8 million sequence reads per sample to the Mus musculus genome (build mm 10). We are specifically interested in those miRNAs expressed in VIS fat from EPA-fed mice compared to HF-fed mice.

Project description:Age-related sarcopenia is associated with a variety of changes in skeletal muscle. These changes are interrelated with each other and associated with systemic metabolism, the details of which, however, are largely unknown. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is a promising nutrient against sarcopenia and has multifaceted effects on systemic metabolism. Although several human studies have suggested that EPA supplementation protects against sarcopenia, the causal relationship of EPA supplementation and an increase of muscle strength has poor evidence in vivo. We demonstrated that aging skeletal muscle in male mice shows lower grip strength and fiber type changes, both of which can be inhibited by EPA supplementation irrespective of muscle mass alteration. We hypothesized that the aging process in skeletal muscle can be intervened by the administration of EPA, via transcriptomic changes in skeletal muscle. This analysis revealed fast-to-slow fiber type transition in aging muscle, which was partially inhibited by EPA.

Project description:Dietary n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids can reduce inflammation via a range of mechanisms. This study tested the effect of dietary eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on intestinal inflammation using interleukin-10 gene-deficient (Il10-/-) mice. Methods: At 35 days of age, 12 weaned Il10-/- and 12 C57 mice were randomly assigned to one of two modified AIN-76A diets, supplemented with 3.7% purified ethyl esters of either EPA (n-3) or oleic acid (OA, control). To identify genes relevant to colon inflammation, transcription profiling (microarrays and qRT-PCR) and bioinformatic analyses were used. Results: In this study, dietary EPA reversed the decrease in colon fatty acid β-oxidation gene expression observed in OA-fed Il10-/- compared to C57 mice. Il10-/- mice fed the OA diet showed decreased expression of antioxidant enzyme genes, as well as those involved in detoxification of xenobiotics, compared to C57 mice on the same diet. In contrast, dietary EPA increased the expression of these genes in Il10-/- mice. Conclusions: These data indicate that dietary EPA induced endogenous lipid oxidation which might have a potential anti-inflammatory effect on colon tissue. This is supported by the activation of the Ppara gene that regulates the expression of pro-inflammatory and immunomodulatory genes and proteins. Experiment Overall Design: The diet abbreviations EPA, OA, AA and CO used in the sample records Experiment Overall Design: refer to the following : Experiment Overall Design: CO : AIN-76A (control) Experiment Overall Design: OA : AIN-76A (fat-free) + 1% corn oil + 3.7% oleic acid Experiment Overall Design: EPA : AIN-76A (fat-free) + 1% corn oil + 3.7% eicosapentaenoic acid Experiment Overall Design: AA : AIN-76A (fat-free) + 1% corn oil + 3.7% arachidonic acid Experiment Overall Design: Corn oil was supplemented with purified linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid to meet the nutritional requirements of mice for these essential fatty acids.

Project description:Despite the recognized protective effects of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in cardiovascular diseases, and the demonstration of the control of gene expression by polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), the effects of these n-3 fatty acids on the whole genoma has never been investigated in cardiac cells. Using rat arrays, the effects of Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation on the global gene expression profile were evaluated in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Experiment Overall Design: Primary cardiomyocyte cultures were obtained from the ventricles of newborn Wistar rats and grown in HAM F10 plus 10% fetal calf serum and 10% horse serum medium (controls), or in the same medium supplemented with 60 ïM Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Media were changed every 48 hrs; cells were grown until complete confluence, then they were scraped off in ice cold PBS, and RNA isolation, labeling of complementary RNA (cRNA), hybridization to Agilent 22K-gene arrays (Rat oligo array G4130A) and assessment of expression ratios were performed. About one million cells treated with RNAlater were homogenized and total RNA was extracted by column technology (Rneasy Protect mini kit) and analyzed on both a spectrophotometer and Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA). Only samples with 28S/18S ratio of >2.0 and no evidence of ribosomal peak degradation were included. The cRNA was generated by in vitro transcription with the use of T7 RNA polymerase (Low RNA input fluorescent linear amplification kit) and labeled with Cy3-CTP or Cy5-CTP. Direct comparisons were performed between n-3 PUFAs supplemented cells versus unsupplemented ones (controls); each analysis was replicated swapping the labeling with the two cyanine dyes.
