The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of Phaeodactylum tricornutum oil (PO) and Laminaria japonica oil (LO) against obesity and other metabolic disorders in a high-fat diet (HFD) induced obese mouse model. The results revealed that PO or LO supplementation significantly reduced HFD-induced body weight gain, hyperlipemia, and fat accumulation in mice. PO or LO supplementation also inhibited SREBP-1-mediated de novo lipogenesis and PPARγ-mediated adipogenesis, as well as enhanced PPARα-mediated fatty acid β-oxidation in the WAT and liver of HFD-fed mice. Moreover, PO or LO supplementation attenuated low-grade chronic inflammation, hyperglycemia and insulin resistance in obese mice. Furthermore, Dietary PO or LO also modulated HFD-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis and increased the SCFAs production. More importantly, our results also manifested that the ameliorative effect of PO and LO against HFD-induced obesity, IR and gut microbiota dysbiosis was comparable, but was superior than that of krill oil and fish oil.
