Dietary Methionine Restriction Ameliorated Fat Accumulation, Systemic Inflammation, and Increased Energy Metabolism by Altering Gut Microbiota in Middle-Aged Mice Administered Different Fat Diets
2020
Diet greatly influences gut microbiota. Dietary methionine restriction (MR) prevents and ameliorates age-related or high-fat-induced diseases and prolongs life span. This study aimed to reveal the impact of MR on gut microbiota in middle-aged mice with low-, medium-, high-fat diets. C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into six groups with different MR and fat-content diets. Multiple indicators of intestinal function, fat accumulation, energy consumption, and inflammation were measured. 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to analyze cecal microbiota. Our results indicated that MR considerably reduced the concentrations of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and increased short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) by upregulating the abundance of Corynebacterium and SCFA-producing bacteria Bacteroides, Faecalibaculum, and Roseburia and downregulating the LPS-producing or proinflammatory bacteria Desulfovibrio and Escherichia–Shigella. The effect of MR on LPS and SCFAs further reduced fat accumulation and systemic inflammation, enhanced heat production, and mediated the LPS/LBP/CD14/ TLR4 pathway to strength the intestinal mucosal immunity barrier in middle-aged mice.
