Project description:Helianthus tuberosus L., known as the Jerusalem Artichoke, is a hexaploid plant species, adapted to low nutrient soils, that accumulates high levels of inulin in its tubers. Inulin is a fructose-based polysaccharide used either as dietary fiber or for the production of bioethanol. Key enzymes involved in inulin biosynthesis are well known. However, the gene networks underpinning tuber development and inulin accumulation in H. tuberous remain elusive. To fill this gap, we selected 6,365 ESTs from a H. tuberosus library to set up a microarray platform and record their expression across three tuber developmental stages, when rhizomes start enlarging (T0), at maximum tuber elongation rate (T3) and at tuber physiological maturity (Tm), in “VR” and “K8-HS142”clones. The former was selected as an early tuberizing, the latter as a late-tuberizing clone. We quantified inulin and starch levels, and q-RT PCR confirmed the expression of key genes accounting for inulin biosynthesis. The microarray analysis revealed that the differences in morphological and physiological traits between tubers of the two clones are genetically determined since T0 and that is relatively low the number of differentially expressed ESTs across the stages shared between the clones (93). The expression of ESTs for sucrose:sucrose 1-fructosyltransferase (1-SST) and fructan:fructan 1-fructosyltransferase (1-FFT), the two critical genes for fructans polymerization, resulted to be temporarily synchronized and mirror the progress of inulin accumulation and stretching. The expression of ESTs for starch biosynthesis was insignificant throughout the developmental stages of the clones in line with the negligible level of starch into their mature tubers, where inulin was the dominant polysaccharide. Overall, our study disclosed candidate genes underpinning the development and storage of carbohydrates in the tubers of two H. tuberosus clones. A model according to which the steady state levels of 1-SST and 1-FFT transcripts are developmentally controlled and might represent a limiting factor for inulin accumulation has been provided. Our finding may have significant repercussions for breeding clones with improved levels of inulin for food and chemical industry.

Project description:Diets rich in carbohydrates not only lead to obesity but also contribute to the liver metabolic diseases. Starch is the major energy source of the daily diet. However, little is known about the metabolic changes due to the intake of different dietary starches. Our aim was to assess the overall metabolic changes at the transcriptome level. Animal model was used, and a total of 16 weaned pigs were randomly allotted to two experimental diets containing either of cassava starch (CS) or maize starch (MS) during 21 days. At the end of the trial, liver tissues were sampled and used for analysis of digestive enzymes, metabolites and transcriptomes. The growth performance was not affected by dietary starch sources. However, CS-feeding significantly increased the serum insulin and cholesterol concentrations (P<0.05). The liver triglyceride and cholesterol content were both elevated by CS-feeding (P<0.05). Microarray analysis led to the identification of 648 genes differentially expressed in liver (P<0.05). The CS-feeding activated the transcription of lipogenic genes such as HMGR and FASN, but decreased the expression of lipolytic genes such as ACOX1, PPARA and FBP. The microarray results correlated well with the measurements of several key enzymes involved in hepatic lipid metabolisms. These results suggested that dietary starch source alters hepatic transcriptome in weaned pigs. The slowly digestible starch (i.e. MS) seemed to be more healthful for mammals as the dietary energy supplier by transcriptional down-regulation of lipogenesis and steroidogenesis.

Project description:Consumption of diets rich in fibers has been associated with several beneficial effects on gastrointestinal health. However, detailed studies on the molecular effects of fibers in colon are limited. In this study we investigated and compared the influence of five different fibers on the mucosal transcriptome, and luminal microbiota and SCFA concentrations in murine colon. Mice were fed diets enriched with fibers that differed in carbohydrate composition, namely inulin (IN), oligofructose (FOS), arabinoxylan (AX), guar gum (GG), resistant starch (RS) or a control diet (corn starch) for 10 days. Gene expression profiling revealed the regulation of specific, but also overlapping sets of epithelial genes by each fiber, which on a functional level were mainly linked to cell cycle and various metabolic pathways including fatty acid oxidation, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and electron transport chain. In addition, the transcription factor PPAR was predicted to be a prominent upstream regulator of these processes. Microbiota profiles were distinct per dietary fiber, but the fibers IN, FOS, AX and GG induced a common change in microbial groups. All dietary fibers, except resistant starch, increased SCFA concentrations but to a different extent. Multivariate data integration revealed strong correlations between the expression of genes involved in energy metabolism and the relative abundance of bacteria belonging to the group of Clostridium cluster XIVa, that are known butyrate producers. These findings illustrate the potential of multivariate data analysis to unravel simple relationships in complex systems. Keywords: Expression profiling by array Mice received a control diet, or a diet supplemented with 10% dietary fibers for 10 days. After an overnight fast colon was removed, epithelial cells were scraped off, and subjected to gene expression profiling.

Project description:The starch, acting as the major energy-producing component of the daily diet, is the main carbohydrate in mammal nutrition. However, the nutritional value of starch can vary widely depending upon its source and site of digestion. The distinct physiological responses were previously observed both in human and other mammals, but still little is known about the underlying mechanisms regarding the metabolic shifts due to the intake of various dietary starches. Here, we assessed the overall metabolic changes in weaned pigs induced by different dietary starch sources at the transcriptome level. Sixteen weaned pigs (DurocÃLandraceÃYorkshire) were selected and randomly allotted to diets containing either wheat (WH) or cassava (CA) starch as the energy source (n=8). We measured serum metabolites and hormones and generated transcriptional profiles of liver. 648 genes in liver were differentially expressed in response to dietary starch sources. Pathway analysis indicated that dietary starch sources altered both carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in liver. In contrast, CA may be more healthful as dietary energy source than WH by down-regulating lipogenesis and steroidogenesis in liver. Sixteen weaned pigs (DurocÃLandraceÃYorkshire) with an average initial body weight of 7.37±0.25 kg were selected and randomly allotted to two dietary treatments (either wheat or cassava starch as the energy source) for 21 d. At the end of the trial, the liver tissue were collected for transcriptome analysis using Agilent porcine microarrays.

Project description:<p><strong>INTRODUCTION:</strong> Feed optimization is a key step to the environmental and economic sustainability of aquaculture, especially for carnivorous species. Plant-derived ingredients can contribute to reduce costs and nitrogenous effluents while sparing wild fish stocks. However, the metabolic use of carbohydrates from vegetable sources by carnivorous fish is still not completely understood.</p><p><strong>OBJECTIVES:</strong> We aimed to study the effects of diets with carbohydrates of different digestibilities, gelatinized starch (DS) and raw starch (RS), in the muscle metabolome of European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax).</p><p><strong>METHODS:</strong> We followed an NMR-metabolomics approach, using two sample preparation procedures, the intact muscle (HRMAS) and the aqueous muscle extracts (1H NMR), to compare the variations in muscle metabolome between the two diets.</p><p><strong>RESULTS:</strong> In muscle, multivariate analysis revealed similar metabolome shifts for DS and RS diets, when compared with the control diet. HRMAS of intact muscle, which included both hydrophobic and hydrophilic metabolites, showed increased lipid in DS-fed fish by univariate analysis. Regardless of the nature of the starch, increased glycine and phenylalanine, and decreased proline were observed when compared to the Ctr diet. Combined univariate analysis of intact muscle and aqueous extracts indicated specific diet related changes in lipid and amino acid metabolism, consistent with increased dietary carbohydrate supplementation.</p><p><strong>CONCLUSIONS:</strong> Due to differential sample processing, outputs differ in detail but provide complementary information. After tracing nutritional alterations by profiling fillet components, DS seems to be the most promising alternative to fishmeal-based diets in aquaculture. This approach should be reproducible for other farmed fish species and provide valuable information on nutritional and organoleptic properties of the final product. </p>

Project description:Roseburia inulinivorans is a recently identified motile representative of the Firmicutes that contributes to butyrate formation from a variety of dietary polysaccharide substrates in the human large intestine. Microarray analysis was used here to investigate substrate-driven gene expression changes in R. inulinivorans A2-194. A cluster of fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS)/inulin utilisation genes induced during growth on inulin included one encoding a b-fructofuranosidase protein that was prominent in the proteome of inulin-grown cells. This cluster also included a 6-phosphofructokinase and an ABC transport system, while a distinct inulin-induced 1-phosphofructokinase was linked to a fructose-specific phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS II transport enzyme). Real-time PCR analysis demonstrated that the b-fructofuranosidase and adjacent ABC transport protein showed greatest induction during growth on inulin, whereas the 1-phosphofructokinase enzyme and linked PTS II transport system were most strongly up-regulated during growth on fructose, indicating that these two clusters play distinct roles in the utilization of inulin. The R. inulinivorans B-fructofuranosidase was over-expressed in E. coli and shown to hydrolyse fructans ranging from inulin down to sucrose, with greatest activity on fructo-oligosacharides. Genes induced on starch included the major extra-cellular a-amylase and two distinct a-glucanotransferases together with a gene encoding a flagellin protein. The latter response may be concerned with improving bacterial access to insoluble starch particles. RNA was purified from mid-exponential phase (OD650 = 0.4) cultures of R. inulinivorans grown on basal YCFA supplemented with a single substrate of either starch or inulin using the RNeasy RNA purification kit (Qiagen), and the mRNA component enriched using the MICROBExpress system (Ambion). The purified RNA (1 ug) was labelled by reverse transcription (Amersham), employing random nonamer extension incorporating either dCTP-Cy3 or dCTP-Cy5 dyes. In order to ensure reproducibility, and to obtain statistically significant results, the dye labelling was swapped for a second hybridisation. RNA purified from a separate biological replicate was labelled and hybridised twice in the same way.

Project description:A common-garden experiment was carried out to compare two genetically distinct strains of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fed diets formulated with either high (CHO) or low (NoCHO) carbohydrate (starch). Twenty salmon from either a commercial farmed strain or a land-locked population were placed in two tanks (10 fish of each population in each tank) and fed either CHO or NoCHO feeds for 32 days. At the end of the experimental period fish were fasted for 8 h, euthanized and samples of blood and liver collected. Both diet and population had an effect on circulating glucose levels with land-locked salmon showing hypoglycaemia and dietary starch increasing this parameter. In contrast, land-locked salmon showed increased plasma triacylglycerol levels regardless of dietary treatment. This enhanced ability to metabolise dietary starch in land-locked compared to farmed salmon stock was also reflected at a molecular (gene) level as most of the metabolic pathways evaluated in the present study were mainly affected by the factor population rather than by diet. In particular, lower expression of genes for mitochondrial metabolism in land-locked salmon reflects drastic differences in energy metabolism between the populations. The liver transcriptome analysis highlighted some new gene candidates such as elovl6 to evaluate in future studies assessing the capacity of salmonids to cope with feeds containing higher levels of dietary starch.
