Project description:Fat intake is an important determinant in the development of obesity. The small intestine is the principal site of digestion and absorption of nutrients, and these short-term circulating nutrients and hormones as well as neural signals derived from the peripheral tissues in responses to a meal act at multiple central nervous system sites where food intake is controlled. In order to identify the HF-specific peripheral signals that can be therapeutic targets of obesity, we investigated transcriptomic changes in the duodenum mucosa after a HF or LF meal ingestion.

Project description:The TGFβ cytokine family member, GDF15, reduces food intake and body weight and represents a potential treatment for obesity. Because the brain stem-restricted expression pattern of its receptor, GDNF Family Receptor α–like (GFRAL), presents an exciting opportunity to understand mechanisms of action for area postrema neurons in food intake, we generated GfralCre and conditional GfralCreERT mice to visualize and manipulate GFRAL neurons. We found infection or pathophysiologic states (rather than meal ingestion) stimulate GFRAL neurons. TRAP-Seq analysis of GFRAL neurons revealed their expression of a wide range of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides. Artificially activating GfralCre-expressing neurons inhibited feeding, decreased gastric emptying, and promoted a conditioned taste aversion (CTA). GFRAL neurons most strongly innervate the parabrachial nucleus (PBN), where they target CGRP-expressing (CGRPPBN) neurons. Silencing CGRPPBN neurons abrogated the aversive and anorexic effects of GDF-15. These findings suggest that GFRAL neurons link non-meal-associated, pathophysiologic signals to suppress nutrient uptake and absorption.

Project description:Mosquitoes are the most notorious hematophagous insects and due to their blood feeding behavior and genetic compatibility, numerous mosquito species are highly efficient vectors for certain human pathogenic parasites and viruses. The mosquito midgut is the principal organ of blood meal digestion and nutrient absorption. It is also the initial site of infection with blood meal acquired parasites and viruses. We conducted an analysis based on single-nucleus RNA sequencing(snRNA-Seq) to assess the cellular diversity of the midgut and how individual cells respond to blood meal ingestion to facilitate its digestion.

Project description:Soybean and fish contains various active components that were reported to prevent cardiovasucular diseases. Epidemiological studies indicated that Asian eating patterns, consisting of daily seafood and/or soy consumption, confer protection against cardiovascular diseases. In this context, we expected that simultaneous intake of soybean and fish may be greatly beneficial in a manner different from the ingestion of the individual food. To understand the detailed mechanism for modulating the lipid metabolism by co-ingestion of a soy food (tofu) and fish oil, we investigated the global changes in hepatic mRNA expression in rats by using a microarray analysis. Generally, ingestion of tofu contributed to prevent the mRNA expressions involved in hepatic lipogenesis, whereas fish oil facilitated the mRNA expressions related to the degradation of hepatic fatty acids. In terms of mRNA expression, the interaction of two dietary factors was limited. The expression data was normalized and summarized by using SuperNORM data service (Skylight Biotech Inc.). Significance of expressional change among groups was tested by 2-way ANOVA on the normalized CEL data, which was deposited in a tab-separated ASCII text format. Principal components were identified on the summarized gene data.

Significance of expressional change among groups was tested by 2-way ANOVA on the normalized CEL data, which was deposited in a tab-separated ASCII text format. Principal components were identified on the summarized gene data. Rats were divided into four groups each with similar average body weights and assigned experimental diets for 21 days as follows: casein and soybean oil diet (CS); casein and fish oil diet (CF); tofu and soybean oil diet (TS); tofu and fish oil diet (TF). Total protein and fat content of each diet was 200 and 150 g/kg, respectively. Soybean oil diets (CS and TS) contain 150 g/kg diet of soybean-derived fat (i.e. soybean oil and freeze-dried tofu), and 50 g/kg of fish oil was replaced with the same amount of soybean-derived fat for fish oil diets (CF and TF). Animals were allowed free access to food and water.

Project description:Calorie restriction (CR) is one of the most robust means to improve health and survival in model organisms. CR imposes a metabolic program that leads to increased stress resistance and delayed onset of chronic diseases, including cancer. In rodents, CR induces the upregulation of two NADH-dehydrogenases, namely NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (Nqo1) and cytochrome b5 reductase 3 (Cyb5r3), which provide electrons for energy metabolism. It has been proposed that this upregulation may be responsible for some of the beneficial effects of CR, and defects in their activity are linked to aging and several age-associated diseases. However, it is unclear whether changes in metabolic homeostasis solely through up-regulation of these NADH-dehydrogenases have a positive impact on health and survival. We generated a mouse that overexpresses both metabolic enzymes leading to phenotypes that resemble aspects of CR including a modest increase in lifespan, greater physical performance, a decrease in chronic inflammation, and importantly, protection against carcinogenesis, one of the main hallmarks of CR. Furthermore, these animals showed an enhancement of metabolic flexibility and a significant upregulation of the NAD+/sirtuin pathway. The results highlight the importance of these NAD+ producers for the promotion of health and extended lifespan.

Project description:Bacillus cereus is the second leading cause of collective food poisoning in France. B. cereus is also associated with severe clinical infections leading to patient death in 10% of the cases. The emergence of B. cereus as a foodborne and opportunistic pathogen has intensified the need to distinguish strains of public health concern. In this work, by performing a screen on a large collection of B. cereus strains of varying pathogenic potential, we identified genetic determinants capable of discriminating B. cereus strains inducing negative clinical outcomes. The combination of 4 biomarkers is sufficient to accurately discern clinical strains from harmless strains. Three of the biomarkers are located on the chromosome, with a fourth one identifying a plasmid carried by most pathogenic strains. A 50 kbp region of this plasmid promotes the virulence potential of these strains and could thus be defined as a new pathogenicity island of B. cereus. These new findings help in the understanding of B. cereus pathogenic potential and complexity and may provide tools for a better assessment of the risks associated with B. cereus contamination to improve patient health and food safety.

Project description:Female mosquitoes require a blood meal for oogenesis, and thereby receive a substantial iron load in the forms of holo-transferrin and hemoglobin. Our previous data showed that during digestion of a blood meal, the gut iron concentration decreases 10-fold, while that of the ovaries doubles from ingestion to 72 hours post feeding. Approximately 72 hours post feeding, eggs are laid with ~125 ng Fe each. We are interested in the effects of the blood meal on the expression of iron related proteins detected in the ovaries during time post feeding before eggs are laid. We have used shotgun proteomic analysis to identify proteins in the developing ovaries of Aedes aegypti; this information provides further insight into the effect of a blood meal on mosquito oogenesis.

Project description:There is few data about effects of temporal segmentation of meal composition on the metabolic response in humans. The meal-induced hormonal secretion in humans strongly depends on the meal composition and on the day time and may be involved in the circadian entrainment of metabolic gene expression. Our study investigated effects of two different diurnal patterns of meal composition (carbohydrate-rich meals in the morning and fat-rich meals in the evening or vice versa) on the gene expression in human subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT).

Project description:We have previously showed that whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) causes a greater increase in muscle protein synthesis than an identical composition of amino acids mixture does. The present study was conducted to investigate a comparative effect of WPH on gene expression. Male Sprague-Dawley rats subjected to a 2-h swimming exercise were administered either a carbohydrate-amino acid diet or a carbohydrate-WPH diet immediately after exercise. One hour after exercise, epitrochlearis muscle mRNA was sampled and subjected to DNA microarray analysis. As a result, ingestion of WPH altered 189 genes in considering the false discovery rate. Among the upregulated genes, 8 Gene Ontology (GO) terms were enriched, which included key elements in muscle repair after exercise such as Cd24, Ccl2, Ccl7 and Cxcl1. On the other hand, 9 GO terms were enriched in the gene sets downregulated by ingestion of WPH and these GO terms fell into 2 clusters, 'regulation of ATPase activity' and 'immune response'. Furthermore, we found that WPH activate the 2 upstream proteins, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1a (HIF-1a), which may act as key factors for regulation of gene expression. These results suggest that ingestion of WPH, compared to an identical composition of amino acid mixture, induces greater changes in the after-exercise gene expression profile via activation of the proteins, ERK1/2 and HIF-1a. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (5-week-old) with body weights of approximately 150 g each (CLEA Japan, Inc., Tokyo, Japan) were used in this study. Rats were maintained at 23 +/- 2C, with lights on from 8:00 to 20:00 and off from 20:00 to 8:00. Rats had free access to food (protein 23.6%, fat 5.3%, carbohydrate 54.4%, ash 6.1%, fiber 2.9%, moisture 7.7%, MF, Oriental Yeast Co., Ltd., Osaka, Japan) and water. After 2- or 3-day acclimation, the rats were pre-trained to swimming exercise for 3 days. One day before the experiment, they were fed 5 g of a restricted diet (MF, Oriental Yeast Co., Ltd., Osaka, Japan). On the day of the experiment, rats swam for 2 hours, with 4 rats swimming simultaneously in a barrel filled with water to a depth of 50 cm, allowing an average surface area of 400 cm2 for each animal. The water temperature was maintained at a constant of 35C. Immediately following exercise, rats were given one of two isoenergetic test solutions by gavage. These solutions contained 44 kJ in a four-test dose that represented about 15% of daily energy needs and included either a mixed meal containing carbohydrate and amino acid mixture (AAM) or a mixed meal containing carbohydrate and whey protein hydrolysate (WPH; Meiji Co., Ltd., Japan). This study was approved by the Animal Committee of Food Science Research Lab., Meiji Co., Ltd., with the animals receiving care according to the guidelines laid down by this committee.
