Project description:The Mixed Meal Model is a physiology based mathematical model describing the post-meal interplay between glucose, insulin, triglycerides and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA).The Mixed Meal Model can be fit to meal response data by estimating nine model parameters from measured plasma glucose, insulin, triglyceride, and NEFA trajectories. These estimated model parameters have been shown to capture features of insulin resistance, beta-cell functionality, and liver fat accumulation from the meal response data.

Project description:Maternal obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are associated with adverse intrauterine environments that are high in circulating nutrients. These adverse environments facilitate impairments in placental mitochondrial function and nutrient processing that ultimately leads to an increased risk of the exposed offspring developing non-communicable cardiometabolic health disorders (e.g. obesity, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome). Analysis of fasting serum lipid levels in the third trimester has highlighted that Palmitate (PA) and oleate (OA) are the most abundance non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) in circulation. More importantly, these important NEFAs are elevated in both obese and GDM pregnancies. As PA and OA are the most abundant NEFAs in the typical “Westernized Diet” they elevated levels in obese and GDM pregnancies may highlight increased maternal consumption of these fats and could be a link between poor diet and abberant placental function. However, the independent and combined impacts of dietary PA and OA on mitochondrial function and nutrient processing in placental trophoblast cells remains poorly defined. Thus, in this study we sought to utilize a multi-omics approach (combining transcriptomics with untargeted metabolomics and lipidomics) to elucidate the underlying impacts of elevated NEFA levels on BeWo placental trophoblast cells. We highlighted a significant enrichment in the Wikipathways Fatty Acid Biosynthesis Pathway in BeWo cytotrophoblast cells treated with a combination of PA and OA (P/O; 50 µM each). Further, we identified differential expression of genes involved in lipid processing (e.g. ACADVL, ACACB, ACSL5, CREB3L3, PLIN2, and SCD) in BeWo cytotrophoblast cells treated with dietary NEFA species. Overall, these data highlighted that alterations in lipid processing, storage, and oxidation are implicated in the development of placental dysfunction in response to elevated lipid levels.

Project description:In dairy cows, the transition from dry and pregnant to non-pregnant and lactating creates metabolic and immunological strain, which means many cows succumb to metabolic and infectious disease. This peripartum period, from three weeks pre-calving to three-weeks post-calving, is also known at the transition period. Metabolic health status during the transition period is determined by plasma concentrations of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), plasma β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA), and liver triacylglycerol (TAG). High concentrations of these indicate cows that are under metabolic stress during the transition period and are, therefore, more likely to experience health conditions, also known as transition failure. Neutrophils, phagocytic cells of the innate immune response, are fundamental for fighting infectious agents.

Project description:The intimate association between obesity and type II diabetes urges for a deeper understanding of adipocyte function. We and others have previously delineated a role for the tumor suppressor p53 in adipocyte biology. Here, we show that mice haploinsufficient for MDM2, a key regulator of p53, in their adipose stores suffer from overt obesity, insulin resistance, and hepatic steatosis. These mice had decreased levels of circulating palmitoleic acid (non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) 16:1) concomitant with impaired visceral adipose tissue expression of Scd1 and Ffar4. A similar decrease in Scd and Ffar4 expression was found in in vitro differentiated adipocytes with perturbed MDM2 expression. Mechanistically, lowered MDM2 levels led to nuclear exclusion of the transcriptional cofactors, MORC2 and LIPIN1, thus hampering adipocyte function by antagonizing LIPIN1-mediated PPARγ coactivation. Collectively, these data argue for a p53-independent role of MDM2 in controlling adipocyte function through LIPIN1.

Project description:Electronegative LDL (LDL(-)) is a minor modified fraction of human plasma LDL with several atherogenic properties. Among them, LDL(-) has increased content of bioactive lipid mediators, such as lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), ceramide (Cer), and sphingosine (Sph), which are related to the presence in LDL(-) of some phospholipolytic activities, including platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH), phospholipase C (PLC) and sphingomyelinase (SMase). However, the activity of these enzymes does not explain the increased content of Sph, which should derive from Cer degradation. In the present study we analyzed the putative presence of a ceramidase (CDase) activity that could explain the increased content of Sph. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) and lipidomic analysis showed that Cer, Sph and NEFA spon-taneously increased in LDL(-) incubated alone at 37ºC, in contrast with native LDL(+). An inhibitor of neutral CDase prevented the formation of Sph and, in contrast, increased the content of Cer in LDL(-). In addition, a fluorescently-labelled Cer (NBD-Cer) was efficiently degraded by LDL(-) to form Sph and NEFA. These observations point to the existence of a CDase activity associated to LDL(-). However, neither proteomic analysis nor western blot detected the presence of a known CDase enzyme. Further studies are warranted to define the origin of the CDase activity detected in LDL(-).

Project description:Metabolic stress associated with negative energy balance in high producing dairy cattle and obesity in women is a risk factor for decreased fertility. Non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) are involved in this pathogenesis as they jeopardize oocyte and embryo development. Growing evidence indicates that maternal metabolic disorders can disturb epigenetic programming, and more specifically DNA methylation, in the offspring. Final oocyte maturation and early embryo development coincide with specific methylation changes and both time periods are sensitive to adverse environments. Therefore, we investigated whether elevated NEFA concentrations affect the establishment and maintenance of DNA methylation patterns in oocytes and embryos and subsequently alter transcriptomic profiles and developmental competence of the resultant blastocysts. To do this, bovine oocytes and embryos were exposed to different NEFA concentrations in two separate experiments. In the first experiment, oocytes were matured in vitro for 24 hours in medium containing: 1) physiological (âBASALâ) concentrations of oleic (OA), palmitic (PA) and stearic (SA) or 2) elevated (pathophysiological or âHIGH COMBIâ) concentrations of OA, PA and SA. In the second experiment, zygotes were cultivated in vitro for 6.5 days under BASAL or HIGH COMBI conditions. The developmental competence was evaluated by assessing cleavage and blastocyst rate. Overall gene expression and DNA methylation of resultant blastocysts were analyzed using microarray techniques. Data regarding DNA methylation were re-evaluated by pyrosequencing. HIGH COMBI-exposed oocytes and embryos displayed a lower competence to develop into blastocysts compared to their BASAL-exposed counterparts (19.3 % compared to 23.2 % and 18.2 % compared to 25.3 %, respectively) (P < 0.05). HIGH COMBI-exposed oocytes and embryos resulted in blastocysts with altered DNA methylation profiles and transcriptomic fingerprints, compared to BASAL-exposed counterparts. Differences in gene expression and methylation were more pronounced after exposure during culture compared to maturation suggesting that zygotes are more susceptible to an adverse environment. Main gene networks affected were related to lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, cell death, immune response and metabolic disorders. This may offer clues regarding the high rate of embryonic loss and metabolic diseases during later stages of life observed in offspring from mothers displaying lipolytic disorders. Two experiments were set up to characterize the epigenomic profile of the resultant day 7.5 blastocysts. In the first (in vitro maturation or IVM) experiment, the effect of elevated NEFA exposure during oocyte maturation (24 h) on DNA methylation profiles was evaluated by exposing oocytes to the BASAL or HIGH COMBI conditions. In the second (in vitro culture or IVC) experiment, the effect of elevated NEFA exposure during embryo culture (6.5 days) on DNA methylation marks was evaluated by exposing embryos to the BASAL or HIGH COMBI conditions. A total of 1039 and 1412 oocytes were used in the IVM and IVC experiment, respectively, equally distributed between treatments in 4 replicates. Resultant day 7.5 blastocysts were snap frozen for subsequent DNA methylation analysis (80 blastocysts in each experiments, equally collected between treatments in 4 replicates).

Project description:Metabolic challenges experienced by dairy cows during the transition between pregnancy and lactation (also known as peripartum), are of considerable interest from a nutrigenomic perspective. The mobilization of large amounts of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) leads to an increase in NEFA uptake in the liver, the excess of which can cause hepatic accumulation of lipids and ultimately fatty liver. Interestingly, peripartum NEFA activate the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), a transcriptional regulator with known nutrigenomic properties. The study of PPAR activation in the liver of periparturient dairy cows is thus crucial; however, current in vitro models of the bovine liver are inadequate, and the isolation of primary hepatocytes is prohibitive and error-prone. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the use of precision-cut liver slices (PCLS) from liver biopsies as a model for PPAR activation in periparturient dairy cows. Four cows were enrolled in the experiment, and PCLS from each were prepared prepartum (-10 DIM) and postpartum (+10 DIM) and treated with a variety of PPAR agonists and antagonist. Gene expression was assayed through RT-qPCR and RNAseq, and intracellular triglyceride concentration was measured. PCLS treated with PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone displayed upregulation of canonical PPAR targets ACADVL and LIPC in the postpartum, while a PPARδ agonists increased expression of PPAR target PDK4; no gene expression changes were detected in the prepartum, and triglyceride concentrations were unchanged between treatments. Transcriptome sequencing revealed considerable differences in response to PPAR agonist, mainly related to pathways involved with lipid metabolism and the immune response. Among differentially expressed genes, a subset of 91 genes were identified as novel putative PPAR targets in the bovine liver, by cross-referencing our results with a publicly-available dataset of predicted PPAR target genes, and supplementing our finding with prior literature. Our results provide important insights on the use of PCLS as a model for assaying PPAR activation in the peripartum.

Project description:Background: Long-term exposure to elevated levels of free fatty acids (FFAs) is deleterious for beta-cell function and may contribute to development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Whereas mechanisms of impaired glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in FFA-treated beta-cells have been intensively studied, biological events preceding the secretory failure, when GSIS is accentuated, are poorly investigated. To identify these early events, we performed genome-wide analysis of gene expression in isolated human islets exposed to fatty acid palmitate for different time periods. Results: Palmitate-treated human islets showed decline in beta-cell function starting from day two. Affymetrix Human Transcriptome Array 2.0 identified 903 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Mapping of the genes onto pathways using KEGG pathway enrichment analysis predicted four islet biology-related pathways enriched prior but not after the decline of islet function and three pathways enriched both prior and after the decline of islet function. DEGs from these pathways were analyzed at the transcript level. The results propose that in palmitate-treated human islets, at early time points, protective events, including up-regulation of metallothioneins, tRNA synthetases and fatty acid-metabolising proteins, dominate over deleterious events, including inhibition of fatty acid detoxification enzymes, which contributes to the enhanced GSIS. After prolonged exposure of islets to palmitate, the protective events are outweighed by the deleterious events, which leads to impaired GSIS. Conclusions: The study identifies temporal order between different cellular events, which either promote or protect from beta-cell failure. The sequence of these events should be considered when developing strategies for prevention and treatment of the disease.
