Abstract
Vitamin D-regulating action of PPARγ on obesity has been confirmed on adipocyte differentiation. However, it is not clear whether vitamin D affects the morphological size of mature adipocytes by influencing the expression of PPARγ in vivo. Our hypothesis was that Vitamin D3 (VitD3) inhibits the growth of adipocyte size by suppressing PPARγ expression in white adipocytes of obese mice. Five-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal diet and high-fat diet groups. After 10 weeks, the body weight between the two groups differed by 26.91%. The obese mice were randomly divided into a high-fat diet, solvent control, low-dose VitD3 (5000 IU/kg·food), medium-dose VitD3 (7500 IU/kg·food), high-dose VitD3 (10,000 IU/kg·food), and PPAR γ antagonist group, and the intervention lasted for 8 weeks. Diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice fed high-dose VitD3 exacerbated markers of adiposity (body weight, fat mass, fat mass rate, size of white and brown adipocytes, mRNA, and protein levels of ATGL and Fsp27), and the protein level of ATGL and Fsp27 decreased in the low-dose group. In conclusion, high-dose VitD3 possibly via inhibiting the ATGL expression, thereby inhibiting lipolysis, increasing the volume of adipocytes, and decreasing their fat-storing ability resulted in decreased Fsp27 expression. Therefore, long-term high-dose oral VitD3 may not necessarily improve obesity, and we need more clinical trials to explore the intervention dose and duration of VitD3 in the treatment of VitD3 deficiency in obese patients.

Combination of Caloric Restriction and a Mixed Training Protocol as an Effective Strategy to Counteract the Deleterious Effects in Trabecular Bone Microarchitecture Caused by a Diet-Induced Obesity in Sprague Dawley Rats. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14183672. [PMID: 36145048 PMCID: PMC9504808 DOI: 10.3390/nu14183672] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The association of obesity with changes in bone mass is not clear. Obese individuals tend to have an increased bone mineral density, but other studies have shown that obesity is a major risk factor for fractures. The mechanisms of bone response during a weight loss therapy as well as the possible osteoprotective effect of exercise should be analyzed. The aim of this study was to test the effects of a weight-loss program based on the combination of caloric restriction and/or a mixed training protocol on different parameters of bone morphology and functionality in a DIO rat model. Three stages were established over a 21-week period (obesity induction 0–12 w, weight loss intervention 12–15 w, weight maintenance intervention 15–21 w) in 88 male Sprague Dawley rats. Bone microarchitecture, total mineral and elemental composition, and bone metabolism parameters were assessed. Weight loss interventions were associated to healthy changes in body composition, decreasing body fat and increasing lean body mass. On the other hand, obesity was related to a higher content of bone resorption and inflammatory markers, which was decreased by the weight control interventions. Caloric restriction led to marked changes in trabecular microarchitecture, with a significant decrease in total volume but no changes in bone volume (BV). In addition, the intervention diet caused an increase in trabeculae number and a decrease in trabecular spacing. The training protocol increased the pore diameter and reversed the changes in cortical porosity and density of BV induced by the high protein diet at diaphysis level. Regarding the weight-maintenance stage, diminished SMI values indicate the presence of more plate-like spongiosa in sedentary and exercise groups. In conclusion, the lifestyle interventions of caloric restriction and mixed training protocol implemented as weight loss strategies have been effective to counteract some of the deleterious effects caused by a dietary induction of obesity, specifically in trabecular bone morphometric parameters as well as bone mineral content.

Abstract
Age-related bone disorders such as osteoporosis or osteoarthritis are a major public health problem due to the functional disability for millions of people worldwide. Furthermore, fractures are associated with a higher degree of morbidity and mortality in the long term, which generates greater financial and health costs. As the world population becomes older, the incidence of this type of disease increases and this effect seems notably greater in those countries that present a more westernized lifestyle. Thus, increased efforts are directed toward reducing risks that need to focus not only on the prevention of bone diseases, but also on the treatment of persons already afflicted. Evidence is accumulating that dietary lipids play an important role in bone health which results relevant to develop effective interventions for prevent bone diseases or alterations, especially in the elderly segment of the population. This review focuses on evidence about the effects of dietary lipids on bone health and describes possible mechanisms to explain how lipids act on bone metabolism during aging. Little work, however, has been accomplished in humans, so this is a challenge for future research.

High-fat diet and caffeine interact to modulate bone microstructure and biomechanics in mice. Life Sci 2021; 276:119450.

Abstract
AIMS Although excessive fat and caffeine intake are independent risk factors for bone microstructural and functional disturbances, their association remains overlooked. Thus, we investigated the impact of high-fat diet (HFD) and caffeine alone and combined on serum lipid profile, bone microstructure, micromineral distribution and biomechanical properties. METHODS Forty female C57BL/6 mice were randomized into 4 groups daily treated for seventeen weeks with standard diet (SD) or HFD (cafeteria diet) alone or combined with 50 mg/kg caffeine. KEY FINDINGS The association between HFD and caffeine reduced the weight gain compared to animals receiving HFD alone. Caffeine alone or combined with HFD increases total and HDL cholesterol circulating levels. HFD also reduced calcium, phosphorus and magnesium bone levels compared to the groups receiving SD, and this reduction was aggravated by caffeine coadministration. From biomechanical assays, HFD combined with caffeine increased bending strength and stiffness of tibia, a finding aligned with the marked microstructural remodeling of the cortical and cancellous bone in animals receiving this combination. SIGNIFICANCE Our findings indicated that HFD and caffeine interact to induce metabolic changes and bone microstructural remodeling, which are potentially related to bone biomechanical adaptations in response to HFD and caffeine coadministration.

Abstract
The role of vitamin D in obesity appears to be linked to vitamin D insufficient/deficient status. However, mechanistic understanding of the role of vitamin D in obesity is lacking. We have shown earlier that the vitamin D hormonal form, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), induces cell death by apoptosis in mature adipocytes. This effect of the hormone is mediated by the cellular Ca2+ signaling pathway: a sustained increase of intracellular (cytosolic) Ca2+ concentration followed by activation of Ca2+-dependent initiators and effectors of apoptosis. In recent animal studies, we demonstrated that low vitamin D status is observed in diet-induced obesity (DIO). High intake of vitamin D3 in DIO decreased the weight of white adipose tissue and improved biomarkers related to adiposity and Ca2+ regulation. The anti-obesity effect of vitamin D (1,25(OH)2D3) in DIO was determined by the induction of Ca2+-mediated apoptosis in mature adipocytes executed by Ca2+-dependent apoptotic proteases (calpains and caspases). Thus, a high intake of vitamin D in obesity increases vitamin D nutritional status and normalizes vitamin D hormonal status that is accompanied by the reduction of adiposity. Overall, our findings imply that vitamin D may contribute to the prevention of obesity and obesity-related diseases and that the mechanism of the anti-obesity effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 includes induction of Ca2+-mediated apoptosis in adipocytes.

Diet induced obesity modifies vitamin D metabolism and adipose tissue storage in mice. J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol 2019; 185:39-46.

Abstract
Low circulating levels of total and free 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) indicative of vitamin D status have been associated with obesity in humans. Moreover, obesity is thought to play a causal role in the reduction of 25(OH)D levels, and several theories have been put forward to explain this relationship. Here we tested the hypothesis that obesity disrupts vitamin D homeostasis in key organs of vitamin D metabolism. Male C57BL6 mice were fed for 7 or 11 weeks on either a control diet (control, 10% energy from fat) or a high-fat diet (HF, 60% energy from fat) formulated to provide equivalent vitamin D3 intake in both groups. After 7 weeks, there was a transient increase of total 25(OH)D together with a significant decrease of plasma vitamin D3 that could be related to the induction of hepatic genes involved in 25-hydroxylation. After 11 weeks, there was no change in total 25(OH)D but a significant decrease of free 25(OH)D and plasma vitamin D3 levels. We also quantified an increase of 25(OH)D in adipose tissue that was inversely correlated to the free 25(OH)D. Interestingly, this accumulation of 25(OH)D in adipose tissue was highly correlated to the induction of Cyp2r1, which could actively participate in vitamin D3 trapping and subsequent conversion to 25(OH)D in adipose tissue. Taken together, our data strongly suggest that the enzymes involved in vitamin D metabolism, notably in adipose tissue, are transcriptionally modified under high-fat diet, thus contributing to the obesity-related reduction of free 25(OH)D.

Combined mineral-supplemented diet and exercise increases bone mass and strength after eight weeks and maintains increases after eight weeks detraining in adult mice. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0204470.

Abstract
Exercise has long-lasting benefits to bone mass and structural strength even after cessation. Combining exercise with a calcium- and phosphorus-supplemented diet increases cortical bone mineral content (BMC), area, and yield force more than exercise alone in adult mice. These increases could also be maintained after stopping exercise if the modified diet is maintained. It was hypothesized that combining exercise with a mineral-supplemented diet would lead to greater cortical BMC, area, and yield force immediately after a lengthy exercise program and after an equally long period of non-exercise (detraining) in adult mice. Male, 16-week old C57Bl/6 mice were assigned to 9 weight-matched groups–a baseline group, exercise and non-exercise groups fed a control or mineral-supplemented diet for 8 weeks, exercise + detraining and non-exercise groups fed a control or mineral-supplemented diet for 16 weeks. Exercise + detraining consisted of 8 weeks of exercise followed by 8 weeks without exercise. The daily exercise program consisted of running on a treadmill at 12 m/min, 30 min/day. After 8 weeks, mice fed the supplemented diet had greater tibial cortical BMC and area, trabecular bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV), bone mineral density (vBMD), yield force, and ultimate force than mice fed the control diet. Exercise increased cortical BMC and area only when coupled with the supplemented diet. After 16 weeks, both exercised and non-exercised mice fed the supplemented diet maintained greater tibial cortical BMC and area, trabecular BV/TV, vBMD, yield force, and ultimate force than mice fed the control diet. Combining exercise with a mineral-supplemented diet leads to greater bone mass and structural strength than exercise alone. These benefits remain after an equally long period of detraining. Long-term use of dietary mineral supplements may help increase and maintain bone mass with aging in adult mice.

Abstract
Altered regulation of vitamin D metabolites, 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH]2D), was observed in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity. We hypothesized that these HFD-induced changes in vitamin D metabolism would be reversed by decreasing fat mass through dietary intervention. Four-week-old C57BL/6J mice were assigned to 1 of 3 experimental diet groups: (1) the LL group was fed a control diet for 31 weeks, (2) the HH group was fed an HFD for 31 weeks, and (3) the HL group was fed HFD for 15 weeks then switched to the control diet for the remaining 16 weeks. The fat mass of the HL group decreased by 15% from the 14th to the 30th week. Serum 1,25(OH)2D level was significantly higher in the HH group than the LL group, whereas that of the HL group was intermediate to the 2 groups. Serum parathyroid hormone and renal 1-hydroxylase (Cyp27b1) mRNA levels, which are known to stimulate renal 1,25(OH)2D production, were significantly higher in the HH group than the LL group. After losing fat mass, the HL group had significantly lower renal Cyp27b1 mRNA levels than the HH group. No differences were found in serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and mRNA levels of hepatic 25-hydroxylases. In adipose tissue, mRNA levels of 25-hydroxylase and vitamin D receptor were elevated in parallel to the adiposity. In conclusion, serum 1,25(OH)2D levels were closely associated with body adiposity, and reducing fat mass by changing to a lower-fat diet can reverse this obesity-associated increase in circulating 1,25(OH)2D levels.

Abstract
Dietary calcium (Ca) supplementation has beneficial effects on bone health. However, it is not clear whether a high calcium diet (HCD) following 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 Nx) is beneficial to bone health. The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of an HCD on bone metabolism using a chronic kidney disease (CKD) mouse model. Male C57BL/6J mice were divided into three groups: Sham group, 5/6 Nx group and 5/6 Nx + HCD group. Mice were sacrificed 12 weeks post-surgery. Calcium (Ca) and creatinine (Cr) were measured using standard colorimetric methods and picric acid methods, respectively. Bone metabolism-associated markers, FGF-23, PTH, ALP-b and TRAP-5b were measured using ELISA kits. Lumbar vertebrae histomorphological analysis was performed using hematoxylin and eosin staining. The expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) mRNA was detected using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Impaired renal function and histopathological damage was indicated in 5/6 Nx mice. However, HCD had no significant effects on these changes in 5/6 Nx mice. Notably, mineral metabolism disorder and histopathological damage to lumbar vertebrae were markedly improved in HCD-treated 5/6 Nx mice. Compared with 5/6 Nx mice, HCD supplementation significantly elevated the ratio of OPG/RANKL and inhibited RANKL mRNA expression in lumbar vertebrae. To conclude, the present findings indicated that increased Ca intake is effective in increasing bone mineral content of the lumbar vertebrae in 5/6 Nx mice. These results may provide a basis for the clinical use of dietary Ca supplementation as a therapeutic approach to treat CKD-induced disturbance of mineral metabolism and bone loss.

Abstract
The vitamin D hormone 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3)-induced cellular Ca2+ signals regulate apoptosis in adipocytes and insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells, and low vitamin D status is considered a risk factor for obesity and type 2 diabetes. The anti-obesity effects of 1,25(OH)2D3 in mature adipocytes are determined by its activity to generate, via multiple Ca2+ signaling pathways, a sustained increase in intracellular Ca2+ followed by activation of the Ca2+-dependent initiators and effectors of apoptosis. In pancreatic β-cells, 1,25(OH)2D3 induces synchronous Ca2+ oscillations, which pattern pulsatile insulin secretion from these cells. An increased intake of vitamin D3 in a high fat diet-induced obesity mouse model is associated with a decreased weight of white adipose tissue due to induction of apoptosis and the improved blood markers related to adiposity, diabetes, and vitamin D status (plasma concentrations of glucose, insulin, adiponectin, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and 1,25(OH)2D3). High vitamin D3 intake is also effective in increasing the mineral content of growing bone in obese mice via regulatory effects mediated by 1,25(OH)2D3-parathyroid hormone axis. The 1,25(OH)2D3-dependent cellular Ca2+ signaling can be important for maintaining the normal levels of apoptosis in adipose tissue and insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. An increased intake of vitamin D may contribute to the prevention of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and bone disorders associated with these diseases.
