Project description:Diets rich in flavanols are known to exert beneficial cardiovascular health effects. We previously showed that epicatechin metabolites reduce monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion by modulating expression of genes in HUVECs involved in cell adhesion signaling pathways. The aim of the present study is to examine potential epigenetic remodeling of HUVEC cells upon inflammation in presence or absence of cocoa derived epicatechin metabolites through genomewide DNA methylation profiling. Epicatechin metabolites were found to trigger DNA hypermethylation in gene bodies and intergenic genomic regions, while hypomethylation in promoter regions. In addition, pathway enrichment of differentially methylated genes demonstrates epigenetic remodeling cell adhesion and cytoskeleton signaling pathways. Finally, in silico docking supports evidence for direct regulation of DNMTs through epicatechin binding. In conclusion, our study provides evidence that epicatechin metabolites elicit vascular health effects in part through epigenetic regulation of endothelial cell adhesion functions.

Project description:Integrated multi-omic analyses of the genomic modifications by 5-(4′-Hydroxyphenyl)-γ-valerolactone metabolites in TNFalpha-stimulated primary human brain microvascular endothelial cells. We exposed human brain microvascular endothelial cells to mixture of 2 metabolites of 5-(4′-Hydroxyphenyl)-γ-valerolactone after they have been exposed to TNF. Total RNA has been extracted and expression of mRNA, miRNas, snoRNAs and lncRNAs has been obtained using microarrays.

Project description:Sirtuin1 (Sirt1) in skeletal muscle (SK) and fat protects against metabolic damage by stimulating insulin sensitivity. Here we report that mice with selective deletion of endothelial Sirt1 (E-Sirt1-KO) paradoxically exhibit heightened whole-body insulin sensitivity. Akt phosphorylation, glucose uptake, and glycolysis are boosted in SK and brown adipose tissue (BAT) of E-Sirt1-KO mice. E-Sirt1-KO mice have higher energy expenditure and are partially protected from high-fat diet-induced insulin resistance. Enhanced insulin sensitivity and peripheral tissue Akt phosphorylation in E-Sirt1-KO mice is transferrable to wild-type mice via the systemic circulation after surgical parabiosis. Silencing of Sirt1 in endothelial cells upregulates transcription of the F-actin-binding protein thymosin beta-4 (Tβ4), whose secretion activates Akt in skeletal myotubes. Sirt1 downregulation stimulates endothelial Tβ4 transcription through inhibition of autophagy and upregulation of nuclear factor-kappa B signaling. Thus, unlike Sirt1 in skeletal muscle and fat, endothelial Sirt1 curtails whole-body insulin sensitivity by inhibiting expression of secreted Tβ4

Project description:Metabolomic analyses reveal the specific array of metabolites present in a cell type or tissue at any given time. Multiple lines of evidence indicate that metabolites provide a readout of ongoing cellular functions, and changes in the metabolome correlate with specific biological processes1–4 as seen, for instance, during cellular differentiation. These changes are potentially associated with the regulation of signaling pathways and gene expression networks that are critical to alter cellular identity5–7. However, it is less clear whether specific metabolites or metabolic pathways can drive changes in cellular identity. To identify metabolites engaged with cell state transitions, we performed metabolomic analyses at the earliest stages of cellular differentiation and uncovered metabolites transiently upregulated just as the first transcriptional changes emerged. Specifically, we observed a wave of one-carbon metabolism conserved between three different multipotent stem cell types. Treatment of fully differentiated cells with these metabolites caused the loss of mature identity and transition toward progenitor-like states, thus demonstrating that the metabolome plays a causative role in initiating and modulating cell fate. Our studies reveal a metabolic intervention that can reprogram cellular phenotypes and could potentially be applied in regenerative medicine applications
