Effect of milk fat globules on growth and metabolism in rats fed an unbalanced diet

ABSTRACT: We assessed the effects of supplementing milk fat globules (MFG) on the growth and development of the skeleton in rats fed a Western unbalanced diet (UBD). The UBD is high in sugar and fat, low in protein, fiber, and micronutrients, and negatively impacts health. The MFG—a complex structure secreted in milk—has a unique proteome and lipidome, and differs significantly from isolated dietary ingredients. Rats consuming the UBD exhibited growth retardation and disrupted bone structural and mechanical parameters; these were improved by supplementation with small MFG. The addition of small MFG increased the efficiency of protein utilization for growth, and improved trabecular and cortical bone parameters. Furthermore, consumption of UBD led to a decreased concentration of saturated fatty acids and increased levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), particularly omega-6 PUFA, in the serum, liver, and adipose tissue. The addition of small MFG restored PUFA concentration and the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 PUFA in bone marrow and adipose tissue. Finally, large but not small MFG supplementation affected the cecal microbiome in rats. Overall, our results suggest that natural structure MFG supplementation can improve metabolism and bone development in rats fed an UBD, with the effects depending on MFG size, whereas the detrimental effects of an UBD on the microbiome were not mitigated by MFG supplementation.

Genomic characterization of normal and aberrant human milk production [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Breastfeeding is vital for reducing morbidity and mortality, yet exclusive breastfeeding rates are low, with insufficient milk supply being a major weaning factor whose molecular causes remain largely unknown. In this study, we collected fresh milk samples from 30 lactating individuals, classified as low, normal, or high milk producers at multiple postpartum stages, and conducted extensive genomic and microbiome analysis. Using bulk RNA sequencing on human milk fat globules (MFG), milk cells, and breast tissue, we found that MFG-derived RNA closely resembles RNA from milk luminal cells. Furthermore, bulk and single-cell RNA-seq revealed changes in the transcriptome and cellular content linked to milk production. We identified specific genes and cell-type proportions differing in low and high milk production. Infant microbiome diversity was affected by feeding type, but not by maternal milk supply. This study provides a comprehensive human milk transcriptomic catalog, identifies genes associated with milk production, and highlights MFG as a useful biomarker for milk transcriptome analysis.

RNA-seq of human adipose tissue following n-3 PUFA supplementation and evoked endotoxemia

Project description:Dietary consumption of long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) may protect against cardiometabolic disease through modulation of systemic and adipose inflammation. However, it is often difficult to detect the subtle effects of n-3 PUFA on inflammatory biomarkers in traditional intervention studies. We aimed to identify novel n-3 PUFA modulated gene expression using unbiased adipose transcriptomics during evoked endotoxemia in a clinical trial of n-3 PUFA supplementation. We analyzed adipose gene expression using RNA sequencing in the fenofibrate and omega-3 fatty acid modulation of endotoxemia (FFAME) trial of healthy individuals at three timepoints: before and after n-3 PUFA supplementation (n=8; 3600mg/day EPA/DHA) for 6weeks compared with placebo (n=6), as well as during a subsequent evoked inflammatory challenge (lipopolysaccharide 0.6ng/kg i.v.). As expected, supplementation with n-3 PUFA vs. placebo alone had only modest effects on adipose tissue gene expression. In contrast, the transcriptomic response to evoked endotoxemia was significantly modified by n-3 PUFA supplementation, with several genes demonstrating significant n-3 PUFA gene-nutrient interactions. These data highlight potential mechanisms whereby n-3 PUFA consumption may enhance the immune response to an inflammatory challenge.

Expression data from hypothalamus of rats fed omega-3 or omega-6 essential fats

Project description:Omega-3 (n-3) and omega-6 (n-6) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) have important signalling roles in the hypothalamus, a region of the brain that regulates whole-body energy homeostasis. While evidence suggests that high PUFA intake can impact hypothalamic activity, the underlying molecular mechanisms regulated by essential dietary PUFA (i.e., linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid) remain poorly described in this brain region. To differentiate the roles of essential dietary PUFA on hypothalamic function, we fed male rats high-fat diets (35% kcal/d) containing either safflower (linoleic acid) or flaxseed (alpha-linolenic acid) oil for 2 months. Control rats were fed a low-fat (16% kcal/d) diet containing soybean oil. Hypothalmic gene expression was investigated by microrray.

Expression data from tibialis anterior muscle of rats fed different fatty acid enriched diets

Project description:Omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) have important signalling roles in the body. The goal of this study was to investigate the impact of linoleic acid (LA, omega-6) and alpha-linolenic (ALA, omega-3) on global skeletal muscle gene expression. We were also interested to study the impact of these fatty acids on myokine expression. To differentiate the roles of essential dietary PUFA on skeletal muscle function, we fed male rats a control diet (AIN-93G) or diets containing 10% safflower oil or flaxseed oil. Skeletal muscle gene expression was investigated by microrray.

SO018 liver gene expression

Project description:Identification of the effect of transgenerationnal supplementation with omega 3 fatty acids on the resistance to a diet induced obesity challenge Although several lines of evidence suggested that omega 3 fatty acids (FA) may protect from obesity and its related disorders by modulation of the metabolism of insulin-responsive organs, the long term effect remains unknown. Preservation of the liver metabolic homeostasis could be a key mediator of omega 3 FA effects. The impact of transgenerational intake of long chain omega 3 PUFA on hepatic adaptations during a nutritional challenge was investigated in young C57Bl6J male mice.

Differential effects of krill oil and fish oil on the hepatic transcriptome in mice

Project description:Dietary supplementation with ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs), specifically the fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6 ω-3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5 ω-3), is known to have beneficial health effects including improvements in glucose and lipid homeostasis and modulation of inflammation. To evaluate the efficacy of two different sources of ω-3 PUFAs, we performed gene expression profiling in the liver of mice fed diets supplemented with either fish oil or krill oil. We found that ω-3 PUFA supplements derived from a phospholipid krill fraction (krill oil) downregulated the activity of pathways involved in hepatic glucose production as well as lipid and cholesterol synthesis. The data also suggested that krill oil-supplementation increases the activity of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Surprisingly, an equimolar dose of EPA and DHA derived from fish oil modulated fewer pathways than a krill oil-supplemented diet and did not modulate key metabolic pathways regulated by krill oil, including glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism and the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Moreover, fish oil upregulated the cholesterol synthesis pathway, which was the opposite effect of krill supplementation. Neither diet elicited changes in plasma levels of lipids, glucose or insulin, probably because the mice used in this study were young and were fed a low fat diet. Further studies of krill oil supplementation using animal models of metabolic disorders and/or diets with a higher level of fat may be required to observe these effects.

Fatty acid synthesis suppresses dietary polyunsaturated fatty acid use

Project description:Metabolic diseases are closely linked to aberrant synthesis of endogenous fatty acids in the liver, called de novo lipogenesis (DNL), which is mediated by the enzyme fatty acid synthase (FASN). The composition of complex lipids consists of saturated or monosaturated fatty acids, which can be endogenously produced, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which are strictly dietary. Compositional differences between individuals are insufficiently understood and may influence the onset and progression of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Here we show that DNL critically determines the use of dietary PUFA. A patient with a hypofunctional heterozygous de novo Arg2177Cys variant in FASN exhibited an elevated composition of PUFA, which was phenocopied by pharmacological inhibition of FASN with TVB-2640 in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). In mice, the incorporation rate of supplemented omega-3 PUFA during an obesogenic diet was increased by genetic or pharmacologic reduction of DNL. Mechanistically, we show that the FASN variant exhibited a cysteine-dependent, non-enzymatic acetylation of FASN, which resulted in hyperubiquitinylation and decreased protein stability. Our study further reveals that PUFA storage is an active, enzymatic process controlled by FASN, diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) and MFSD2A, a membrane-transport protein, and that combining FASN inhibition and PUFA supplementation exerts additive beneficial metabolic effects. These findings provide evidence that the success of PUFA supplementation may depend on the rate of endogenous DNL and that combined PUFA supplementation and FASN inhibition may be a promising approach targeting metabolic disease.

Modulation of rat serum microRNA expression by omega-3 and omega-6 PUFA diet

Project description:To better understand the mechanisms of miRNAs in PUFA-modulated cellular pathways, we compared physical signs and immune statuses of PUFA-treated rats. The results indicated that omega-3 PUFAs decreased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, and tumor necrosis factor-a, at the same time, increased proportion of CD8+ suppressor T cells and regulatory T cells in rats. The changes of these biological parameters showed that the PUFA diet-induced autoimmune (AI)-prone and AI-averse rat models were successfully established. As following steps, differentially expressed miRNAs were filtered in peripheral serum by microarray assay and validated in PBMC, liver, visceral fat, and pituitary gland by stem-loop real-time quantitative-PCR (RT-qPCR). Biological databases and computational algorithms were used to classify the potential target genes of these PUFA-induced differentially expressed miRNAs.
