Feeding lactating rats on high-fat cheese crackers in addition to laboratory chow increased the dietary intake of fat from 2 to 20% of the total weight of food eaten and decreased mammary-gland lipogenesis in vivo by approx. 50%. This lipogenic inhibition was also observed in isolated mammary acini, where it was accompanied by decreased glucose uptake. These inhibitions were completely reversed by incubation with insulin. Insulin had no effect on the rate of glucose transport into acini, nor on pyruvate dehydrogenase activity as estimated by the accumulation of pyruvate and lactate, suggesting that these are not the sites of lipogenic inhibition. Insulin stimulated the incorporation of [1-14C]acetate into lipid in acini from high-fat-fed rats. In the presence of alpha-cyanohydroxycinnamate, a potent inhibitor of mitochondrial pyruvate transport, and with glucose as the sole substrate, neither [1-14C]glucose incorporation into lipid nor glucose uptake were stimulated by insulin. Insulin did stimulate the incorporation of [1-14C]acetate into lipid in the presence of alpha-cyanohydroxycinnamate, and this was accompanied by an increase in glucose uptake by the acini. This indicated that increased glucose uptake was secondary to the stimulation of lipogenesis by insulin, which therefore must occur via activation of a step in the pathway distal to mitochondrial pyruvate transport. Insulin stimulated acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity measured in crude extracts of acini from high-fat-fed rats, restoring it to values close to those of chow-fed controls. The effects of insulin on acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity and lipogenesis were not antagonized by adrenaline or dibutyryl cyclic AMP.

Sequoyitol decreases blood glucose, improves glucose intolerance, and enhances insulin signaling in ob/ob mice. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sequoyitol on diabetic nephropathy in rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the mechanism of action. Diabetic rats, induced with a high-fat diet and a low dose of streptozotocin, and were administered sequoyitol (12.5, 25.0, and 50.0 mg·(kg body mass)−1·d−1) for 6 weeks. The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG), serum insulin, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and serum creatinine (SCr) were measured. The expression levels of p22phox, p47phox, NF-κB, and TGF-β1 were measured using immunohistochemisty, real-time PCR, and (or) Western blot. The total antioxidative capacity (T-AOC), as well as the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were also determined. The results showed that sequoyitol significantly decreased FBG, BUN, and SCr levels, and increased the insulin levels in diabetic rats. The level of T-AOC was significantly increased, while ROS and MDA levels and the expression of p22phox, p47phox, NF-κB, and TGF-β1 were decreased with sequoyitol treatment both in vivo and in vitro. These results suggested that sequoyitol ameliorates the progression of diabetic nephropathy in rats, as induced by a high-fat diet and a low dose of streptozotocin, through its glucose-lowering effects, antioxidant activity, and regulation of TGF-β1 expression.

Citrus fruits are a rich source of high-value bioactive compounds and their consumption has been associated with beneficial effects on human health. Red (blood) oranges (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) are particularly rich in anthocyanins (95% of which are represented by cyanidin-3-glucoside and cyanidin-3-6″-malonyl-glucoside), flavanones (hesperidin, narirutin, and didymin), and hydroxycinnamic acids (caffeic acid, coumaric acid, sinapic, and ferulic acid). Lemon fruit (Citrus limon) is also rich in flavanones (eriocitrin, hesperidin, and diosmin) and other polyphenols. All of these compounds are believed to play a very important role as dietary antioxidants due to their ability to scavenge free radicals. A standardized powder extract, red orange and lemon extract (RLE), was obtained by properly mixing anthocyanins and other polyphenols recovered from red orange processing waste with eriocitrin and other flavanones recovered from lemon peel by a patented extraction process. RLE was used for in vivo assays aimed at testing a potential beneficial effect on glucose and lipid metabolism. In vivo experiments performed on male CD1 mice fed with a high-fat diet showed that an 8-week treatment with RLE was able to induce a significant reduction in glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides levels in the blood, with positive effects on regulation of hyperglycemia and lipid metabolism, thus suggesting a potential use of this new phytoextract for nutraceutical purposes.

Background/Aims: High-fat diet (HFD) causes cardiac electrical remodeling and increases the risk of ventricular arrhythmias. Aloe-emodin (AE) is an anthraquinone component isolated from rhubarb and has a similar chemical structure with emodin. The protective effect of emodin against cardiac diseases has been reported in the literature. However, the cardioprotective property of AE is still unknown. The present study investigated the effect of AE on HFD-induced QT prolongation in rats. Methods: Adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: control, HFD, and AE-treatment groups. Normal diet was given to rats in the control group, high-fat diet was given to rats in HFD and AE-treatment groups for a total of 10 weeks. First, HFD rats and AE-treatment rats were fed with high-fat diet for 4 weeks to establish the HFD model. Serum total cholesterol and triglyceride levels were measured to validate the HFD model. Afterward, AE-treatment rats were intragastrically administered with 100 mg/kg AE each day for 6 weeks. Electrocardiogram monitoring and whole-cell patch-clamp technique were applied to examine cardiac electrical activity, action potential and inward rectifier K+ current (IK1), respectively. Neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) were subjected to cholesterol and/or AE. Protein expression of Kir2.1 was detected by Western blot and miR-1 level was examined by real-time PCR in vivo and in vitro, respectively. Results: In vivo, AE significantly shortened the QT interval, action potential duration at 90% repolarization (APD90) and resting membrane potential (RMP), which were markedly elongated by HFD. AE increased IK1 current and Kir2.1 protein expression which were reduced in HFD rats. Furthermore, AE significantly inhibited pro-arrhythmic miR-1 in the hearts of HFD rats. In vitro, AE decreased miR-1 expression levels resulting in an increase of Kir2.1 protein levels in cholesterol-enriched NRVMs. Conclusions: AE prevents HFD-induced QT prolongation by repressing miR-1 and upregulating its target Kir2.1. These findings suggest a novel pharmacological role of AE in HFD-induced cardiac electrical remodeling.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) represent about 30% of all global deaths. It is currently accepted that, in the atherogenic process, platelets play an important role, contributing to endothelial activation and modulation of the inflammatory phenomenon, promoting the beginning and formation of lesions and their subsequent thrombotic complications. The objective of the present work was to study using immunohistochemistry, the presence of platelets, monocytes/macrophages, and cell adhesion molecules (CD61, CD163, and CD54), in two stages of the atheromatous process. CF-1 mice fed a fat diet were used to obtain early stages of atheromatous process, denominated early stage of atherosclerosis, and ApoE−/−mice fed a fat diet were used to observe advanced stages of atherosclerosis. The CF-1 mice model presented immunostaining on endothelial surface for all three markers studied; the advanced atherosclerosis model in ApoE−/−mice also presented granular immunostaining on lesion thickness, for the same markers. These results suggest that platelets participate in atheromatous process from early stages to advance d stages. High fat diet induces adhesion of platelets to endothelial cellsin vivo. These findings support studying the participation of platelets in the formation of atheromatous plate.

Abstract BackgroundNuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is reportedly involved in hepatic lipid metabolism, but the results are contradictory and the underlying mechanism thus remains unclear. Herein we focused on elucidating the effects of Nrf2 on hepatic adipogenesis and on determining the possible underlying mechanism. We established a metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) model in high fat diet (HFD) fed Nrf2 knockout (Nrf2 KO) mice; further, a cell model of lipid accumulation was established using mouse primary hepatocytes (MPHs) treated with free fatty acids (FAs). Using these models, we investigated the relationship between Nrf2 and autophagy and its role in the development of MAFLD.ResultsWe observed that Nrf2 expression levels were up-regulated in patients with MAFLD and diet-induced obese mice. Nrf2 deficiency led to hepatic lipid accumulation in vivo and in vitro, in addition to, promoting lipogenesis mainly by increasing SREBP-1 activity. Moreover, Nrf2 deficiency attenuated autophagic flux and inhibited the fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes in vivo and in vitro. Weakened autophagy caused reduced lipolysis in the liver. Importantly, Chromatin immunoprecipitation-qPCR (ChIP-qPCR) and dual-luciferase assay results proved that Nrf2 bound to LAMP1 promoter and regulated its transcriptional activity. We accordingly report that Nrf2-LAMP1 interaction has an indispensable role in Nrf2-regulated hepatosteatosis. ConclusionsThese data collectively confirm that Nrf2 deficiency promotes hepatosteatosis by enhancing SREBP-1 activity and attenuating autophagy. To conclude, our data reveal a novel multi-pathway effect of Nrf2 on lipid metabolism in the liver, and we believe that multi-target intervention of Nrf2 signaling is a promising new strategy for the prevention and treatment of MAFLD.

The role of high-fat diet (HFD) induced gut microbiota alteration and Ghrelin as well as their correlation in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) were explored in our study. The gut microbiota was analyzed by 16s rRNA sequencing. Ghrelin levels in serum, along with Ghrelin and Ghrelin receptor in prostate tissue of mice and patients with BPH were measured. The effect of Ghrelin on cell proliferation, apoptosis, and induction of BPH in mice was explored. Our results indicated that BPH mice have the highest ratio of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes induced by HFD, as well as Ghrelin level in serum and prostate tissue was significantly increased compared with control. Elevated Ghrelin content in the serum and prostate tissue of BPH patients was also observed. Ghrelin promotes cell proliferation while inhibiting cell apoptosis of prostate cells. The effect of Ghrelin on enlargement of the prostate was found almost equivalent to that of testosterone propionate (TP) which may be attenuated by Ghrelin receptor antagonist YIL-781. Ghrelin could up-regulate Jak2/pJak2/Stat3/pStat3 expression in vitro and in vivo. Our results suggested that Gut microbiota may associate with Ghrelin which plays an important role in activation of Jak2/Stat3 in BPH development. Gut microbiota and Ghrelin might be pathogenic factors for BPH and could be used as a target for mediation.
