Project description:Pcyt2 defient mice has metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance. We used microarray to study the gene expression of these mice to understand the global program of gene expression underlying the metabolic syndrome, obesity and insulin resistance. 2 month-old Pcyt2 deficient mice and age matched control mice liver tissues were choosen for RNA extraction and gene expression using Affymetrix microarray.

Project description:Mice overexpressing reverse tetracycline-transactivator (rtTA) exhibited all four sequelae of metabolic syndrome (visceral obesity insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension), a pro-inflammatory state and marked hepatic steatosis. Gene expression profiling of the adipose tissue, muscle and liver revealed changes in gene expression of key factors involved in lipid metabolism, insulin resistance, and inflammation.

Project description:An 8-week high fat palm oil diet causes obesity and insulin resistance in C57BL/6J mice, but induces only small changes in the muscle transcriptome. Introduction: The metabolic syndrome (MS) is a cluster of metabolic abnormalities linked to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Two major characteristics of the MS are obesity and insulin resistance. In the present study we investigated the effect of obesity and insulin resistance on the mouse muscle transcriptome. Methods: C57BL/6J mice were fed a palm oil-based low fat diet (LFD) or high fat diet (HFD) for eight weeks. Microarray analysis was performed by using two complementary strategies: (1) 8-week HFD transcriptome versus 8-week LFD transcriptome and (2) transcriptome of mice sacrificed at the start of the intervention versus 8-week LFD transcriptome and 8-week HFD transcriptome, respectively. Results: HFD mice develop obesity and whole-body insulin resistance. Despite these metabolic disturbances we found that HFD induces relatively small changes in gene expression (< 1.3 fold). Only the up-regulation of FA oxidation and the down-regulation of the MAPK cascade were specific for the HFD intervention. Eight-weeks of aging induced more changed gene expression levels than the HFD, including genes involved in cell-cell interaction and development. Conclusion: Eight weeks of aging induce more pronounced changes in the muscle transcriptome than an HFD. Since only one strategy revealed the transcriptional down-regulation of the MAPK cascade, whereas both strategies showed the up-regulation of FA oxidation we suggest the use of complementary analysis strategies by the genome-wide search of gene expression changes induced by mild interventions, such as an HFD. Keywords: diet intervention and time course In this study, C57BL/6J mice were fed a high fat (HF) diet for 8 weeks to induce obesity and insulin resistance. Plasma levels of the adipokines leptin and adiponectin were measured. To investigate how these metabolic disturbances will influence the skeletal muscle transcriptome we performed whole-genome microarray analysis. Functional implications were assessed by analyses of predefined gene sets based on Gene Ontology, biochemical, metabolic and signaling pathways.

Project description:Metabolic reprogramming is a common feature in tumor progression and metastasis. Like proteins, lipids can transduce signals through lipid-protein interactions. During tumor initiation and metastasis, dysregulation of the Hippo pathway plays a critical role. Specifically, the inhibition of YAP1 phosphorylation leads to the relocation of YAP1 to the nucleus to activate transcription of genes involved in metastasis. Although recent studies reveal the involvement of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) synthesis enzyme phosphoethanolamine cytidylyltransferase 2 (PCYT2) in tumor chemoresistance, the impact of PCYT2 on tumor metastasis remains elusive. Here, we showed that PCYT2 was significantly downregulated in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) and acted as a tumor metastasis suppressor. Mechanistically, PCYT2 increased the interaction between PEBP1 and YAP1-phosphatase PPP2R1A, thus disrupting PPP2R1A-YAP1 association. As a result, phosphorylated-YAP1 levels were increased, leading to YAP1 degradation through the ubiquitin protease pathway. YAP1 reduction in the nucleus repressed the transcription of ZEB1 and Snail2, eventually resulting in metastasis suppression. Our work provides insight into the role of PE synthesis in regulating metastasis and presents PCYT2 as a potential therapeutic target for CRC.

Gene expression profiling of the adipose tissue, muscle and liver revealed changes in gene expression of key factors involved in lipid metabolism, insulin resistance, and inflammation. Liver, epididymal White Adipose Tissue, kidney cortex, kidney medulla and muscle from wild type (FVB mice, Taconic Farms) and rtTA overexpressing mice (line 6) were profiled in Merck/Agilent mouse 44k v1.0 arrays. For each tissue, a reference pool was used composed of total RNA from that tissue obtained from FVB mice. Channel 1 is the reference pool, channel 2 is the sample.

Project description:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a highly prevalent disorder, affecting one in eight women across the world. It is commonly accompanied by metabolic syndrome, including obesity, insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance and dyslipidemia. Activation of the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway is known to alleviate metabolic defects and counteract obesity. Hence, this study utilized a preclinical PCOS mouse model to investigate the effects of chemically induced HIF activation on the metabolic traits of the syndrome.

Project description:Obesity and its accompanying metabolic complications have risen to epidemic proportions over the past 30 years. Together, these diseases are creating economic and social burdens that are expected to increase. Although multifactorial in their etiology and polygenic, the development of diseases such as metabolic syndrome in humans (obesity, fatty liver, insulin resistance [IR] and dyslipidemia) is facilitated by access to cheap, calorically dense foods. Many animal models, particularly laboratory rats and mice, have been developed to identify the underlying mechanisms involved in risk factors associated with metabolic diseases, especially Type II diabetes (T2D) and IR. Genetic models and dietary manipulations have aided our understanding of these disorders; however, it is important to recognize that examples of reversible obesity and IR occur in nature. Importantly, these conditions in animals are not associated with the negative consequences observed in humans. These observations together suggest that metabolic controls are sufficiently flexible to avoid the highly deleterious, maladapted process in humans and serve as a survival mechanism in some animals. An example of this is obesity of almost unlimited proportions (i.e., >50% body fat) and insulin resistance present in hibernating bears. Both phenotypes are reversible naturally. Our studies using cultured bear fat cells collected during hibernation recapitulate the natural insulin resistance observed in vivo. In addition, proteins or peptides found in active season serum can reverse this insulin resistance of cells from hibernating bears, indicating that circulating factors also play an important role in the seasonal modulation of insulin sensitivity. Experimentally, we can reverse the insulin resistance temporarily during hibernation by simply feeding glucose for a few weeks; thus, an important control can be added to minimize influences of body fat content, season, and diet composition. Bears therefore offer a unique model in which whole animal and cell culture systems can be used in highly standardized, easily manipulated, and controlled experiments to explore the underlying basis for reversible IR. By revealing the mechanisms involved in this reversible physiology we can gain a broader understanding of metabolic controls and the regulation of energy balance. The Washington State University (WSU) Bear Research, Education and Conservation Center is the only facility of its kind in the world dedicated to basic nutrition and physiological research using captive bears. Based on this rationale, the main objective of the proposed studies is to reveal the underlying molecular changes occurring in bears during different states of insulin sensitivity by identifying the serum proteins/peptides associated with hibernation by comparing serum from active season and hibernating bears, as well as bears that have restoring insulin sensitivity during hibernation.
