Abstrakt: Background/aims: The goal of this study was to determine the influence of high-fat high-sugar diet (Western diet) on intestinal function and subsequently to determine if there were any beneficial effects of exercise, genistein (a naturally occurring phytoestrogen) or both, on the intestine.
Methods: We measured transepithelial short circuit current (I sc ), across freshly isolated segments of jejunum from male and female C57Bl/6J mice randomly assigned to one of the following groups for the 12-week study duration: high-fat high-sugar diet (HFS), HFS with genistein (Gen), HFS with exercise (Ex), or HFS with both genistein and exercise (Gen+Ex) and compared them to lean controls. Genistein concentration was 600 mg genistein/kg diet. Exercise comprised of moderate intensity treadmill running (150 min per week). At the completion of the study, segments of jejunum were frozen for western blot determination of key proteins involved in secretory and absorptive functions, as well as senescence. Intestinal morphology was assessed. Serum cytokine assays were performed.
Results: Basal I sc was significantly decreased (by 70%, P<0.05) in HFS females and males versus leans. This decrease was partially mitigated by exercise in both sexes. In females, the HFS-induced decrease in I sc was attributed to a significant loss of CLC2, NKCC1 and CFTR expression whereas in males this was due to a significant loss of Na/K-ATPase, K Ca and NKCC1 expression (indicating sex-dependent mechanisms). Exercise mitigated most of the loss of I sc in both sexes. Our data suggested that A2BR levels were dysregulated in HFS fed mice and that concomitant treatment with Gen or Gen+Ex prevented this disruption in females only. Inflammatory state was associated with body weight changes.
Conclusion: Our data suggests that the reduced basal jejunal I sc in HFS mice is attributed to sex-dependent mechanisms and while exercise partially mitigated this, it's mechanism of action was unclear. Improved understanding of Western diet induced intestinal dysfunctions may allow for the development of novel drug targets to treat gastrointestinal disturbances in diabetic obesity.
