Gene expression changes in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells after 3 diet interventions, TMD enriched with olive oil, TMD enriched with nuts and Low fat diet.

ABSTRACT: Despite the benefits associated with healthy diets, data on the mechanisms by which these benefits are promoted are scarce. Our aim was to explore the global transcriptomic response of biological pathways related to cardiovascular disease associated with traditional Mediterranean diet (TMD) intervention. The PREDIMED study is a large on-going, parallel, multicentre, randomised, controlled trial aimed at assessing the TMD effect on primary cardiovascular prevention. High cardiovascular risk participants were recruited and assigned to one of the following interventions: 1) TMD plus virgin olive oil (VOO); 2) TMD plus mixed nuts; or 3) low-fat diet (control group). In a sub sample of 30 volunteers of the PREDIMED- Barcelona Sur Centre, gene expression changes in peripheral mononuclear cells, after 3 months of intervention, were assessed by microarray analysis.

Project description:Background Many environmental and lifestyle factors have been implicated in the decline of sperm quality, with diet being one of the most plausible factors identified in recent years. Moreover, several studies have reported a close association between the alteration of specific sperm DNA methylation signatures and semen quality. Objectives To evaluate the effect of tree nuts consumption on sperm DNA methylation patterns in healthy individuals reporting eating a Western‐style diet. Material and Methods This is a post‐hoc analysis conducted in a subset of participants (healthy, non‐smoking, and young) from the FERTINUTS 14‐wk randomized‐controlled, parallel‐trial, recruited between December 2015 and February 2017. The participants included in the current study (n=72) were randomly selected in a proportion 2:1 from the original FERTINUTS trial between the 98 participants that completed the entire dietary intervention (nut group, n=48; control group, n=24). Sperm DNA methylation patterns were examined at baseline and after 14 weeks in 48 individuals consuming 60 g/d of mixed nuts (nuts group) and in 24 individuals following the usual Western‐style diet avoiding consumption of nuts (control group). Results Over the course of the trial, no significant changes in global methylation were observed between groups. However, in the nuts group, we identified 36 genomic regions that were significantly differentially methylated between the baseline and the end of the trial and 97.2% of the regions displayed hypermethylation. We identified no such change in the control group over the same period of time. We also utilized the recently developed germ line age calculator to determine if nut consumption resulted in alterations to the epigenetic age of cells and no significant differences were found. Discussion and Conclusion Adding nuts to a regular Western‐style diet subtly impacts sperm DNA methylation in specific regions, demonstrating that there are some sperm epigenome regions that could respond to diet.
