Effect of high versus low doses of fat and vitamin A dietary supplementation on fatty acid composition of phospholipids in mice

Abstract: Dietary fat and vitamin A provide important precursors for potent bioactive ligands of nuclear hormone receptors, which regulate various enzymes involved in lipid homeostasis, metabolism and inflammation. We determined the effects of dietary fat and dietary vitamin A on hepatic expression of two fatty acid metabolizing enzymes, elongase 6 (ELOVL6) and stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase 1 (SCD1) and the concentration of saturated fatty acids (SAFA) and monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) of phospholipids in serum and… Show more

“…Thus, the upregulation of genes involving in VA metabolism in high-FE pigs was possibly caused by the relatively lower oxidation and energy loss in this study. Besides, the key genes of fatty acid biosynthesis SCD (Samuel et al 2001; Zolfaghari and Ross 2003; Zhang et al 2012; Weiss et al 2014) and FASN (Zhou et al 2010; Zhang et al 2012) were induced by RA at the transcriptional level and significantly upregulated in high-FE pigs. SCD encodes stearoyl-CoA desaturase, which converts saturated fatty acids into monounsaturated fatty acids, and influences fatty acid partitioning in the liver by promoting fatty acid synthesis but decreasing oxidation (Flowers and Ntambi 2009).…”

“…On the basis of the analyzed feed of the NF diet, it contained 11.6% saturated fats, 20% monounsaturated fatty acids, and 68.4% polyunsaturated fatty acids (Weiss et al, in preparation). Furthermore, dietary composition was 180 g/kg casein, 10 g/kg vitamin mix, 45 g/kg mineral mix, and 20 g/kg cellulose for all applied diets (42). As a result of the increased amount of fat in the diet, the carbohydrate proportion was lower; the LF diet contained 29.5% sucrose and 43% starch, the NF diet 28% sucrose and 41.5% starch, and the HF diet 17% sucrose and 32.5% starch (42).…”

“…For vitamin content, diets were supplemented with vitamin mix (Vitamin-Vormischung C1000) that contained either 2500 RE/kg as normal–vitamin A diet, or for high–vitamin A diet, an additional retinyl-palmitate (RetPal) supplement (final 326,500 RE/kg; Sigma-Aldrich) was added to the normal–vitamin A diet (42, 43). …”

“…Our previous studies in mice have shown that diet modulates the hepatic gene expression of SCD1. A diet rich in sunflower oil, and its major fatty acid constituents (n6-PUFAs) was an effective suppressor of the hepatic SCD1 and ELOVL6 expression [22]. This suppression was also observed in phospholipid composition concomitantly with a significant reduction of their metabolic products measured in cellular membranes of liver tissue, in particular MUFAs [22].…”

The mechanism of suppression of SCD1 and ELOVL6 by dietary fats with a high n6-PUFA content is still not fully understood, while it is well known that dietary n3-PUFAs also have a pronounced suppressive effect on the expression of these enzymes [23].…”
