摘要

The European Nutrigenomics Organisation (NuGO; www.nugo.org) was established in 2004 and is funded within the Sixth Framework Programme of the European Commission as a network of excellence [4]. The core partners forming NuGO are 23 research units based at universities and research centers. The key objectives of NuGO are: (a) the promotion of molecular nutrition research in Europe; (b) the development and promotion of mechanistic research in nutrition, food and health research by application of omics technologies; and (c) to develop joint research programs. The NuGO Proof of Principle Study package (NuGO PPS) started in 2007 and is one of the collaborative research initiatives within NuGO. The main goals of the NuGO PPS are to: (a) assess the advantages and the limitations of omics applications in nutritional studies; (b) prove that systems biology approaches can provide a better description of the health/disease status of an organism; (c) prove NuGO’s ability as a network of excellence to analyze complex data sets obtained from a federated series of studies, performed at many partner sites, analyzed in different omics platforms in combination with statistics and bioinformatics in an integrative way; and finally (d) optimize the convergence in data sharing by implementing a data integration platform.;The experimental research platform is based on three mouse feeding trials, PPS1, PPS2, PPS3, and a human volunteer trial referred to as the human PPS (both animal and human studies are approved by their respective local ethics committees). All studies are based on an energy challenge and the acute and chronic effects on substrate oxidation and inflammation status in addition to the long term alterations and stability of energy homeostasis. The mouse studies address the effects of time (PPS1) or metabolic challenges (PPS2) or dietary fat content (PPS3) on the development of insulin resistance and the metabolic consequences which are assessed by comprehensive phenotyping. Analysis takes into account the type of diet, the time-dependency of changes and organ-specificity of effects well as the ability of an organism to cope with metabolic dietary stress (bolus of glucose). The human study is designed to assess the biological intra- and inter-individual variation of a huge spectrum of molecular, metabolic and clinical parameters employing the different omics technologies and to assess the scale and patterns of alterations elicited by a simple nutritional intervention—a 36?h fasting period.;The ApoE*3Leiden transgenic mouse is highly susceptible to diet-induced hyperlipoproteinemia and has been established as a valid murine atherosclerosis models mimicking many hallmarks of human metabolism related to diabetes and atherosclerosis [8].In ApoE*3Leiden transgenic mice, the lipid metabolism is humanized (i.e., a more human-like lipoprotein profile). These humanized mice also can serve as a model of insulin resistance. The mouse study was designed and executed by T.K. and R.K., at TNO-Leiden (The Netherlands) including microarray analysis of organs relevant for insulin resistance (liver, adipose tissue, muscle). Parts of the study were donated to NuGO and biosamples are being further analyzed within the NuGO PPS1 research community. The prime goal of the study is to monitor, with high time-resolution, the development of diet-induced obesity (DIO) and insulin resistance. To do so, genome-wide transcriptomic datasets for the course of the development of insulin resistance in liver, white adipose tissue and muscle were generated. Within PPS1, the development of hepatic steatosis is analyzed which includes the development of a (subacute) inflammatory response. Insulin resistance was achieved in the ApoE*3Leiden mice by feeding animals a diet based on 45% fat by energy (beef tallow) over 12?weeks. Insulin resistance was established in the animals by performing a glucose tolerance test 3 day prior to sacrifice (and parallel hyperinsulinemic-euglyc
