RNA expression in fly thoraxes of 4 WT, 4 dCanA1 and 4 dCanA-14F calcineurin mutant fly lines

ABSTRACT: Canonical protein phosphatase 3 (Ppp3) / calcineurin signaling is central to numerous physiological processes. Here we provide evidence that calcineurin plays a pivotal role in controlling systemic energy and body weight homeostasis. Knockdown of calcineurin in Drosophila melanogaster led to a decrease in body weight, and energy stores, and increased energy expenditure. D. melanogaster piggyBac transposon insertion mutants (Thibault et al., 2004) (PBac{WH}CanA1[f01787] (Calcineurin A1) and PBac{WH}CanA-14F[f02374] (CanA at 14-F)) and the isogenic wildtype w1118 strain (BL-6326) were ordered from Exelixis Drosophila Stock Collection at Harvard Medical School.

RNA was isolated from the thorax of 50 flies per sample. Whole genome tiling gene arrays were utilized to reveal distinctly deregulated gene patterns that appeared in both mutants (n=4, respectively) as compared to the WT controls (n=4).

Comparative trancriptome analysis of weaned pigs in response to different dietary starch sources

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 7.37Â±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.

Deletion of the Mammalian INDY Homologue in Mice Mimics Aspects of Dietary Restriction and Protects Against Diet and Age-Induced Adiposity and Insulin Resistance

Project description:Reduction in expression of the INDY gene in Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans prolongs life span, and in D. melanogaster augments mitochondrial biogenesis in a manner akin to caloric restriction. However, the cellular mechanism by which INDY does this is unknown. In order to examine the effect that INDY might have on energy metabolism and insulin sensitivity in mammals we created the first knock out mouse model of the mammalian INDY homologue SLC13A5. Here, we show that deletion of the mammalian homologue of INDY, SLC13A5 (mINDY) in mice (mINDY-/- mice) have increased mitochondrial biogenesis, hepatic lipid oxidation, and energy expenditure, but decreased hepatic de novo lipogenesis. Loss of mIndy activates hepatic AMPK, which induces PGC-1?, inhibits ACC-2, and reduces SREBP-1c levels. In contrast to wild- type mice, mINDY-/- mice have reduced body weight and are protected from insulin resistance that evolves with high-fat feeding and aging. These studies demonstrate that mIndy functions as a novel regulator of mammalian energy metabolism and suggest that mIndy might be a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes.

The fruit fly acetyltransferase chameau promotes starvation resilience at the expense of longevity

Project description:Proteins involved in cellular metabolism and molecular regulation can extend lifespan in various organisms in the laboratory. However, any improvement in aging would only provide an evolutionary benefit if the organisms were able to survive under non-ideal conditions. We have previously shown that Drosophila melanogaster carrying a loss of function allele of the acetyltransferase chameau (chm) has an increased healthy life span when fed ad libitum. Here, we show that loss of chm and a reduction of its activity result in a substantial reduction of weight and a decrease in starvation resistance. This phenotype is caused by a failure to properly regulate the genes and proteins required for energy storage and expenditure. The previously observed increase in survival time thus comes with the inability to prepare for and cope with nutrient stress. As the ability survive in environments with restricted food availability is likely a stronger evolutionary driver than the ability to live a long life, chm is still present in the organism’s genome despite its apparent negative effect on lifespan.
