Functional and morphological renal changes in a Göttingen Minipig model of obesity-related and diabetic nephropathy

ABSTRACT: Male Göttingen Minipigs were divided into 4 groups: SD (standard diet, n=8), FFC (FFC diet, n=16), FFC-DIA (FFC diet + diabetes, n=14), FFC-DIA+S (FFC diet with extra salt + diabetes, n=14). Blood and urine biomarkers, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), blood pressure and resistive index (RI) were evaluated after 6-7 months (T1) and 12-13 months (T2). Histology, electron microscopy and gene expression (excluding FFC-DIA+S) were evaluated at T2. Göttingen Minipigs fed FFC diet displayed some of the characteristic features of human ORG. Presence of diabetes on top of FFC diet, lead to changes resembling the early phases of human DN.

Project description:The Göttingen Minipig is gaining ground as nonrodent species in safety testing of drugs for pediatric indications. Due to developmental changes in pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD), physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models are built to better predict drug exposure in children and to aid species selection for nonclinical safety studies. These PBPK models require high quality physiological and PK/PD data such as protein abundance of drug metabolizing enzymes. These data are available for man and rat, but scarce for the Göttingen Minipig. The aim of this study was to assess hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) protein abundance in the developing Göttingen Minipig by using mass spectrometry. In addition, sex-related differences in CYP protein abundance and correlation of CYP enzyme activity with CYP protein abundance were assessed. The following age groups were included: gestational day (GD) 84 - 86 (n = 8), GD 108 (n = 6), postnatal day (PND) 1 (n = 8), PND 3 (n = 8), PND 7 (n = 8), PND 28 (n = 8) and adult (n = 8). Liver microsomes were extracted and protein abundance was compared to that in adult animals. Next, the CYP protein abundance was correlated to CYP enzyme activity in the same biological samples. In general, CYP protein abundance gradually increased during development. However, we observed a stable protein expression over time for CYP4A24 and CYP20A1 and for CYP51A1, a high protein expression during the fetal stages was followed by a decrease during the first month of life and an increase towards adulthood. Sex-related differences were observed for CYP4V2_2a and CYP20A1 at PND 1 with highest expression in females for both isoforms. In the adult samples, sex-related differences were detected for CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP2A19, CYP2E1_2, CYP3A22, CYP4V2_2a and CYP4V2_2b with higher values in female compared to male Göttingen Minipigs. The correlation analysis between CYP protein abundance and CYP enzyme activity showed that CYP3A22 protein abundance correlated clearly with the metabolism of midazolam at PND 7. These data are remarkably comparable to human data and provide a valuable step forward in the construction of a neonatal and juvenile Göttingen Minipig PBPK model.

Project description:The underlying mechanism of how the atopic lipids in skeletal muscle affect muscle growth remains elusive. Here we chose miniature Bama swine as our model to mimick human obesity and co-associated metabolic disorders by long time diet induction and study how the atopic fat accumulation in skeletal muscle influence muscle function. After 23 months high-fat high-sucrose diet (HFHSD) fed, the model minipig model of obesity accompanied with metabolic disorders like human, and they had increased body weight and extensive lipids deposition in adipose tissues (AT) and non-AT, especially in skeletal muscle. Further more, the mass of skeletal reduced greatly and the small area (0-2000μm2) muscle reduced after diet induced. The average fiber area of Gastroc reduced 25.2%, but no significant changes appeared in the other skeletal muscles. Antioxidant capacity of skeletal muscle also reduced. Microarray profiles showed genes related to fat deposition promotion (Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ, CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α and apolipoprotein E), muscle growth inhibition (myostatin and p21) up regulated, and some other muscle cell differentiation related genes (myoD) down regulated. Meanwhile, adipokines like adiponectin and 11b-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11βHSD1) which partake in the crosstalk between AT and skeletal muscles rose up. We draw a clear potential crosstalk pathway that, increased 11βHSD1 secreted by excess AT will promote the expression of the major inhibitor MSTN by activating corticosterone to cortisol, leading to the growth inhibition of skeletal muscle. Overall, this research announces how obesity affects skeletal muscle growth in a crosstalk sight. Male and female Bama minipigs, aged 6 months at the start of the study, were divided into the following two groups for 23 months of treatment. Bama minipigon control (CD group, N=3) were fed standard pig chow. The experimental group (N=6) were fed high-fat high-sucrose diet (53% basal diet, 37% sucrose, 10% lard, HFHSD).
