Project description:Previous work has demonstrated that elevated maternal lipid intake (particularly from dairy products) is associated with increased lipids and altered fatty acid profile in milk produced by healthy lactating women. We investigate our primary hypothesis that a maternal diet rich in full-fat dairy products would simultaneously increase milk lipid percent and expression of genes related to the uptake and/or de novo biosynthesis of milk lipids.
Project description:Milk is the body fluid richest in microRNAs (miRNAs), which are small (18-25nt) non-coding RNAs, regulating many biological processes and thus influencing human health. With the objective of determining their bioavailability in processed dairy products, we studied three commercial butters. To examine the presence or not of miRNAs in butter, we first investigated six miRNAs by RT-qPCR. Following the affirmative result, we established butter miRNomes using small-RNA-Seq, which identified 526 miRNAs, including 50% in common with a milk and milk fat miRNome. The three butters did not have exactly the same TOP 30 miRNAs and were not the exact mirror of the TOP 30 of the miRNAs already reported in Holstein milk and milk fat miRNomes, suggesting differences during the butter production process or storage. Prediction of the influence of the TOP 30 butter miRNAs showed potential effects on cell life and regulation of gene expression that could affect consumer health. In the future, the effects of miRNAs bioavailability on the health of human consuming dairy products will need to be considered. Our results highlight the importance of expanding our understanding of the bioavailability of food miRNAs, including in various processed dairy foods.
Project description:Previous work has demonstrated that elevated maternal lipid intake (particularly from dairy products) is associated with increased lipids and altered fatty acid profile in milk produced by healthy lactating women. We investigate our primary hypothesis that a maternal diet rich in full-fat dairy products would simultaneously increase milk lipid percent and expression of genes related to the uptake and/or de novo biosynthesis of milk lipids. Within a a randomized, crossover study we performed a microarray analysis comparing 6 lactating women with diets rich in full-fat or non-fat dairy products. Each woman consumed one of the two diets during timepoint one, and after a two week washout period, switched over to the other diet. The timepoint value indicates whether the particular dietary treatment was consumed first or second.
