Considering epigenetic characteristics, notable alterations in DNA methylation, particularly hypomethylation in immune-related pathways, such as T cell receptor have been observed. In turn, these alterations are associated with the overexpression of genes related to autoimmunity and a loss of immunological self-tolerance. Furthermore, DNA hypomethylation levels in SLE may contribute to disease progression and also impact disease activity and clinical manifestations. Summary: It is well-established that nutritional epigenetics elucidates the role of nutrition and dietary factors on the interactions of metabolic systems with the molecules that bind to DNA, regulating gene expression. Specific nutritional interventions may reverse initial epigenetic patterns, thereby significantly impacting the chronic disease´s treatment and prognostic. In fact, dietary nutrients and bioactive food compounds may influence DNA methylation patterns by inhibiting enzymes related to DNA methylation reactions or by altering the availability of different substrates involved in DNA methylation process (e.g methyl-donor nutrients). Key Messages: The knowledge of how diet plays a role in changing DNA methylation patterns in SLE is in the early stages. While a few studies in the literature have assessed the effects of nutrient intake, supplementation, or treatment on DNA methylation levels and have demonstrated their relevance, further research is imperative to deepen our comprehension of the interactions between epigenetics and nutrients, which is vital for the development of novel precision nutrition approaches.","PeriodicalId":18030,"journal":{"name":"Lifestyle Genomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140450359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Application of gut bacterial profiling information in precision nutrition for obesity and weight loss management","authors":"O. Ramos-López, P. Aranaz, J. Riezu-Boj, F. Milagro","doi":"10.1159/000536156","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1159/000536156","url":null,"abstract":"Background: It has been suggested that the dysfunction of the gut microbiome can have deleterious effects on the regulation of body weight and adiposity by affecting energy metabolism. In this context, gut bacterial profiling studies have contributed to characterize specific bacteria associated with obesity. This review covers the information driven by gut bacterial profiling analyses and emphasizes the potential application of this knowledge in precision nutrition strategies for obesity understanding and weight loss management.\u0000Summary: Gut bacterial profiling studies have identified bacterial families that are more abundant in obese than in non-obese individuals (i.e. Prevotellaeae, Ruminococcaceae, and Veillonellaceae) as well as other families that have been repeatedly found more abundant in non-obese people (i.e. Christensenellaceae and Coriobacteriaceae), suggesting that an increase in their relative amount could be an interesting target in weight-loss treatments. Also, some gut-derived metabolites have been related to the regulation of body weight, including short chain fatty acids (SCFA), trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), and branched-chain and aromatic amino acids. Moreover, gut microbiota profiles may play a role in determining weight loss responses to specific nutritional treatments for the precise management of obesity. Thus, incorporating gut microbiota features may improve the performance of integrative models to predict weight loss outcomes.\u0000Key Messages: The application of gut bacterial profiling information is of great value for precision nutrition in metabolic diseases, since it contributes to the understanding of the role of the gut microbiota in obesity onset and progression, facilitates the identification of potential microorganism targets, and allows the personalization of tailored weight loss diets as well as the prediction of adiposity outcomes based on the gut bacterial profiling of each individual. Integrating microbiota information with other omics knowledge (genetics, epigenetics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics) may provide a more comprehensive understanding of the molecular and physiological events underlying obesity and adiposity outcomes for precision nutrition. \u0000","PeriodicalId":18030,"journal":{"name":"Lifestyle Genomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139437913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, we explore the interplay of host genetics with viral correlates in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)- and long COVID-related OD, and its diagnosis and treatment that remain challenging. Two genes associated with olfaction, UGT2A1 and UGT2A2, appear to be involved in COVID-19-related anosmia, a hallmark symptom of acute infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), particularly in the early stages of the pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 infects olfactory support cells, sustentacular and Bowman gland cells, that surround olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) in the olfactory epithelium (OE) where the initial step of odor detection takes place. Anosmia primarily arises from the infection of support cells of the OE, followed by the deciliation and disruption of OE integrity, typically without OSN infection. Through the projected axons of OSNs, the virus could theoretically reach the olfactory bulb and brain, but current evidence points against this route. Intriguingly, SARS-CoV-2 infection of support cells leads to profound alterations in the nuclear architecture of OSNs, leading to the downregulation of odorant receptor-related genes, e.g., of Adcy3. Viral factors associated with the development of OD include spike protein aminoacidic changes, e.g., D614G, the first substitution that was selected early during SARS-CoV-2 evolution. More recent variants of the Omicron family are less likely to cause OD compared to Delta or Alpha, although OD has been associated with a milder disease course. OD is one of the most prevalent post-acute neurologic symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
