| Abstract: | ObjectiveOur previous study revealed that chronic consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) stimulates colon cancer progression in obesity-resistant BALB/c mice. The aim of the present study was to investigate the significant alteration of metabolites caused by tumor progression and an HFD in the serum and liver in the same mouse model.MethodsMale BALB/c mice were fed either a control diet or a HFD for 20.5 wk. The syngeneic CT26 colon carcinoma cells were injected into the right rear flank of mice after 16 wk of feeding. Metabolites in serum and liver samples were analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight-mass spectrometry-based metabolomics.ResultsHFD feeding and tumor injection induced changes in the choline-containing phospholipids, namely, phosphatidylcholines and lysophosphatidylcholines (lysoPCs), and lysophosphatidylethanolamines in the serum and liver. The majority of these metabolite changes were due to HFD feeding (11 in sera and 5 in livers) rather than tumors (3 in sera and 1 in livers).ConclusionThe HFD- and tumor-related metabolite alterations of phospholipids, especially lysoPCs, in the liver and serum of obesity-resistant mice, suggesting that the lysoPCs are potential biomarkers for the chronic consumption of HFD in nonobese individuals. |
