The Impact of Acute Nutritional Interventions on the Plasma Proteome

J Clin Endocrinol MetabPublished Mechanistic study

Authors' conclusion

Our study identifies APOC1 as a dominant nutritional responder in humans and highlights the interdependency of acute nutritional response proteins and the endocrine system.

Study context

Population
Healthy young men (caloric restriction); Ely epidemiological study participants (glucose challenge); random individuals from Generation Scotland
Participants
10 / 200 / 200
Comparison
Plasma proteome before vs after acute nutritional interventions
  • Caloric restrictionn = 10
  • Elyn = 200
  • Generation Scotlandn = 200
Outcome
Plasma proteome response to acute nutritional interventions
Methodological detailshigh-throughput mass spectrometry, three cohorts
  • High-throughput mass spectrometry
  • Three cohorts

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

  • Both caloric restriction and the glucose challenge substantially impacted the plasma proteome
  • Proteins responded across individuals or in an individual-specific manner
  • Nutrient-responsive plasma proteins correlated with changes in the metabolome and with endocrine parameters
  • Apolipoprotein C1 (APOC1) was affected by caloric restriction, dominated the response to glucose consumption and differed in abundance between individuals with and without T2D
