Abstract
Ionomics-metabolomics association analysis is a novel method to elucidating the potential mechanisms underlying the effects of dietary copper on the overall health parameters of suckling piglets model. Few studies have elucidated the relationship between the changes of ionic and metabolic homeostasis responses to dietary copper level. The growth performance data was obtained from 180 suckling piglets which access to different copper levels: 6 (low copper diet, LC), 20 (control diet, CON), and 300 (high copper diet, HC) mg·kg-1 copper (based on diet, supplementation from CuSO4), and offered ad libitum from d 14 until weaning at 40 d of age. Dietary high level copper (300 mg·kg-1) increased the ADG and ADFI during d 14 to 28 of piglets. Six elements (Mg, Na, K, P, Cu, and Mn) concentrations significantly changes in hair among the three treatment diets. The significant increased concentrations of Na and K, and decreased concentration of Mg and Mn in 300 mg·kg-1 than 20 mg·kg-1 copper diet was observed. In current study, with the increase in copper level from 20 to 300 mg·kg-1 in diet, the correlation between hair Na, K and Cu, Mn, Zn vanish. Hair Na and K were positively correlated with serum total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and negatively correlated with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). The hair Cu was negatively correlated with serum malondialdehyde (MDA), total bile acid (TBA). The fecal Cu was positively correlated with serum growth hormone (GH). The results suggested that the average daily gain (ADG) in 6 mg·kg-1 copper diet and the average daily feed intake (ADFI) in 20 mg·kg-1 copper diet were decreased than 300 mg·kg-1 copper diet during d 14 to 28 and the ADG was decreased in 6 and 20 mg·kg-1 copper diets in d 29 to 40 of piglets. Dietary 20 mg·kg-1 copper maintain ion homeostasis due to increase the number of positive correlations between macroelements-microelements in hair and serum. Significantly changed Na, K, Mg, Mn and Cu concentrations in hair can reflect the adverse effects of dietary 300 mg·kg-1 copper of suckling piglets. We believe our results may benefit people to gain a better understanding of the ion interactions and metabolic homeostasis of heavy metal elements that are critical to human and animal health.

Maternal Folate Status and the BHMT c.716G>A Polymorphism Affect the Betaine Dimethylglycine Pathway during Pregnancy. Nutrients 2016; 8:nu8100621. [PMID: 27735840 PMCID: PMC5084009 DOI: 10.3390/nu8100621] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2016] [Revised: 09/20/2016] [Accepted: 09/27/2016] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
The effect of the betaine: homocysteine methyltransferase BHMT c.716G>A (G: guanosine; A: adenosine) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) on the BHMT pathway is unknown during pregnancy. We hypothesised that it impairs betaine to dimethylglycine conversion and that folate status modifies its effect. We studied 612 women from the Reus Tarragona Birth Cohort from ≤12 gestational weeks (GW) throughout pregnancy. The frequency of the variant BHMT c.716A allele was 30.8% (95% confidence interval (CI): 28.3, 33.5). In participants with normal-high plasma folate status (>13.4 nmol/L), least square geometric mean [95% CI] plasma dimethylglycine (pDMG, µmol/L) was lower in the GA (2.35 [2.23, 2.47]) versus GG (2.58 [2.46, 2.70]) genotype at ≤12 GW (p < 0.05) and in the GA (2.08 [1.97, 2.19]) and AA (1.94 [1.75, 2.16]) versus GG (2.29 [2.18, 2.40]) genotypes at 15 GW (p < 0.05). No differences in pDMG between genotypes were observed in participants with possible folate deficiency (≤13.4 nmol/L) (p for interactions at ≤12 GW: 0.023 and 15 GW: 0.038). PDMG was lower in participants with the AA versus GG genotype at 34 GW (2.01 [1.79, 2.25] versus 2.44 [2.16, 2.76] and at labour, 2.51 [2.39, 2.64] versus 3.00 [2.84, 3.18], (p < 0.01)). Possible deficiency compared to normal-high folate status was associated with higher pDMG in multiple linear regression analysis (β coefficients [SEM] ranging from 0.07 [0.04], p < 0.05 to 0.20 [0.04], p < 0.001 in models from early and mid-late pregnancy) and the AA compared to GG genotype was associated with lower pDMG (β coefficients [SEM] ranging from −0.11 [0.06], p = 0.055 to −0.23 [0.06], p < 0.001). Conclusion: During pregnancy, the BHMT pathway is affected by folate status and by the variant BHMT c.716A allele.
