Abstract
RI P
Chrononutrition is the science of nutrition based on chronobiology. Numerous epidemiological studies have shown that fish oil (FO) reduces the risk of cardiovascular
SC
events through various actions such as lowering triglycerides. The present study aimed to determine the time of day when the hypertriglyceridemia-decreasing ability of FO is
MA NU
optimal in mice. A high-fructose diet (HFrD) that induces hyperlipidemia in mice was replaced with the same diet containing 4% FO (HFrD-4%FO) at different times of the day for two weeks as described below. Mice were fed with HFrD alone (CTRL) or with
ED
HFrD containing 4%FO for 12 hours around the time of activity onset (breakfast (BF)-FO), or offset (dinner (DN)-FO). Plasma and liver concentrations of triglycerides
PT
and total cholesterol were reduced in BF-FO but not in DN-FO mice compared with CTRL mice. The temporal expression of genes associated with fatty acid (FA) synthesis
CE
such as Fasn, Acaca, Scd1 and Acly in the liver was significantly suppressed in both
AC
BF-FO and DN-FO mice. Expression levels of Scd1 in epididymal adipose tissue were significantly suppressed only in the BF-FO mice. Plasma concentrations of docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid were far more increased in BF-FO, than in DN-FO mice. Significantly more of these n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) were excreted in the feces of DN-FO than of BF-FO mice. These findings suggest that dietary FO exerts more hypolipidemic activity at the time of breakfast than dinner, because the intestinal absorption of n-3 PUFA is more effective at that time.

1. Introduction
RI P
Hypertriglyceridemia is independently associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases [1]. Epidemiological studies have shown that fish oil (FO) rich
SC
in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) reduces the risk of cardiovascular events such as cardiac death and myocardial infarction via anti-inflammatory, anti-atherosclerotic
MA NU
suppression and antithrombotic pathways [2]. The ability of FO to lower triglycerides (TG) has been recognized in experimental animals and humans [3], and the critical components of FO responsible for the hypotriglyceridemic effects are thought to be
ED
docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Although the TG-lowering ability of FO is established, the precise mechanisms of action are not
PT
completely understood. Mechanisms such as reducing hepatic and adipose lipogenesis de novo by suppressing lipogenic gene expression, inhibiting key enzymes involved in
CE
hepatic TG synthesis and increasing the β-oxidation of fatty acids (FA) as well as the
AC
expression of lipoprotein lipase (LPL), result in increased amounts of TG being removed from circulating very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and chylomicron particles and seem to be involved in the ability of FO to decrease TG [4]. The remarkable increase in dietary fructose consumption among western countries during the past 40 years is implicated in the increasing prevalence of metabolic and cardiovascular disorders such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and hyperlipidemia [5-7]. Fructose is both a potent substrate for and stimulator of lipogenesis de novo, and a high-fructose diet (HFrD) induces extreme hyperlipidemia in humans [8] and experimental animals including rodents and rhesus monkeys [9-12]. Several studies of experimental animals have shown that FO prevents HFrD-induced 4

hypertriglyceridemia [10-12].

The circadian clock system entrains various daily rhythms of behavior and physiology
RI P
such as the sleep-wake cycle, core body temperature, blood pressure, immune functions, hormonal secretion and metabolism to environmental cues such as light-dark cycles in
SC
mammals. The master circadian oscillator in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is driven by self-sustained transcription-translation-based feedback loops consisting of the
MA NU
periodic expression of clock genes [13]. Studies of clock genes have shown that oscillatory mechanisms function in various peripheral tissues such as the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys and adipose tissues and that these peripheral oscillators play important
ED
roles in regulating various physiological functions [14, 15]. In fact, hundreds of circadian clock-controlled genes that regulate an enormous diversity of biological
PT
processes including lipid absorption, synthesis and metabolism have been identified in peripheral tissues using DNA microarray technology [16-18]. The circadian clock
CE
governs changes in mitochondrial FA oxidation that peak at the end of the rest period
AC
[19, 20]. Dietary fat and molecular clocks both regulate intestinal digestion and dietary lipid absorption [21, 22]. Chrononutrition is the science of nutrition based on chronobiology, namely the circadian rhythms of the absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination of food and food components. The principle of consuming foodstuffs at the time of the day when they would be maximally beneficial to health has been established. The present study investigated the effects of FO consumed at different times of the day on TG levels in mice fed with an HFrD.

2.1. Animals and diets
Five-week-old male ddY mice (Japan SLC Inc., Hamamatsu, Japan) were fed with a
SC
normal non-purified diet (CE-2; Clea Japan Inc., Tokyo, Japan) ad libitum for three weeks under a 12 h light-12 h dark cycle (LD 12:12); lights on at Zeitgeber Time (ZT) 0
MA NU
and lights off at ZT12. After acclimatization, the mice were fed with the HFrD (F2HFrD; Oriental Yeast Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) without or with FO (DHA-22K; Maruha Nichiro Corporation) ad libitum or time-restricted for two weeks as described
ED
below. Supplemental Table 1 shows the FA composition of DHA-22K and the composition of the experimental diets.
PT
Fish oil was administered ad libitum for two weeks using HFrD without or with 2% FO (HFrD-2%FO; Supplemental Table 1). Thereafter, the mice were sacrificed at ZT18 to
CE
obtain and whole blood was withdrawn under inhalational anesthesia with sevoflurane.
AC
The HFrD was replaced with the same diet containing 4% FO (HFrD-4%FO; Supplemental Table 1) for 12 hours a day (time-imposed restricted feeding) as described below. After acclimatization, the mice were given HFrD-4%FO from ZT18 to ZT6 (breakfast (BF)-FO), from ZT6 to ZT18 (dinner (DN)-FO), or given HFrD alone (CTRL). After nine days on the replaced or CTRL diets, feces were collected for 24 hours and stored at -80ºC and two weeks of these diets, the mice were sacrificed at ZT2, 8, 14, and 20 after 14 days to obtain blood and tissue samples, because many metabolic parameters and gene expression levels fluctuate at various times of the day [16, 17]. Whole blood was withdrawn under inhalational anesthesia with sevoflurane, and then the liver and the epididymal white adipose tissue (WAT) were dissected, rapidly frozen 6

concentrations were measured using LabAssayTM Glucose, NEFA, Triglyceride and
PT
Cholesterol kits (Wako Pure Chemical Industries Ltd., Osaka, Japan).
2.3. Measurements of hepatic lipids
CE
Hepatic lipids were assayed as described [23]. In brief, frozen liver fragments (0.3 g)
AC
were disrupted in 1 mL of 50 mmol/L NaCl using a Polytron homogenizer. Three volumes of chloroform:methanol (2:1, vol/vol) were added to homogenates (0.3 mL) and then 0.5 mL of the organic phase was evaporated and resolved in 0.2 mL of isopropanol containing 20% Triton X-100. Hepatic lipid concentrations were then measured using kits as described above.

2.5. Fatty acid analysis
Lipids were extracted from 100 μL of plasma or 100 mg of feces as described by Bligh and Dyer [24] and then 1.5 mL of 0.5 M sodium hydroxide/methanol was added to the
ED
extract. The mixture was incubated at 100ºC for 9 min, cooled, and then incubated at 100ºC for 7 min with BF3/methanol (2 mL). The reactant was partitioned into hexane (3
PT
mL) and distilled water (3 mL) layers and the upper layer was analyzed using a GC-2010 PLUS gas chromatograph (GC) (Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) with a flame
CE
ionization detector (FID) and a DB-WAX capillary column (0.25 mm i.d. × 50 m; J&W
AC
Scientific, Folsom, CA, USA). The column temperature was increased from 170 ºC to 210ºC in 1.5ºC/min increments. The injector and detector temperatures were set at 250ºC. The carrier gas was He at a flow rate of 1.1 mL/min. The split ratio was 100:1. H2 and air were supplied to the FID. Fatty acids were identified by comparing retention times with the Supelco 37 Component FAME Mix lipid standard (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). Tricosanoic acid methyl ester served as the internal standard for quantitative FA determination.

3. Results

We initially assessed the ability of FO to decrease plasma lipid concentrations in mice fed with the HFrD. The consumption of the HFrD-2%FO ad libitum significantly

We replaced the HFrD with HFrD-4%FO between ZT18 and ZT6 (BF-FO) and between ZT6 and ZT18 (DN-FO) for two weeks (Fig. 2) to determine the effects of time-imposed restricted FO intake on hyperlipidemia. Total daily food consumption was

Plasma Glc concentrations were identical among CTRL, BF-FO, and DN-FO groups

(Fig. 4A). Plasma T-Cho concentrations were significantly decreased in BF-FO mice compared with those of CTRL mice during the active phase (Fig. 4B). Plasma TG and FFA concentrations fluctuated in a circadian manner that peaked at the end of the active phase in all groups, and FO-induced lipid lowering effects were statistically significant only in the BF-FO mice compared with CTRL mice (Fig. 4C and D). Hepatic contents of T-Cho, TG, and FFA were significantly suppressed depending on the time of day in BF-FO, compared with CTRL mice (Fig. 5A-C), but not in DN-FO mice. Figure 6 shows temporal expression profiles of genes related to cholesterol metabolism in the liver. Supplementation with FO significantly suppressed the mRNA expression of 10

4. Discussion
RI P
Fish oil supplementation has been recognized to improve the hyperlipidemia by decreasing lipogenesis in experimental animals and humans [3]. The present study
SC
evaluated the time-of-day effects of FO supplementation on HFrD-induced hyperlipidemia in mice. The results revealed that FO supplementation at the
MA NU
beginning of the active period (BF-FO) reduced liver and plasma concentrations of TG and T-Cho in mice. The present findings indicate that the circadian rhythms of various functions such as bile secretion, intestinal lipid absorption, FA synthesis de
ED
novo and β-oxidation are involved in the feeding time-dependent hypolipidemic effects of FO.
PT
Plasma concentrations of both DHA and EPA were significantly higher in BF-FO than DN-FO mice, although these groups consumed similar amounts of these n-3
CE
PUFA. These findings were in line with the significant decrease in the fecal
AC
excretion of these n-3 PUFA in BF-FO, compared with DN-FO mice. On the other hand, the fecal excretion of other FA were similar between BF-FO and DN-FO mice, except for oleic acid. These findings suggest that the intestinal absorption mechanisms of DHA and EPA, which are subject to circadian fluctuation, differ from those of other dietary FA, probably due to their chain length and bond saturation. In fact, the intestinal absorption and lymphatic transport is less effective for DHA and EPA than for other saturated and unsaturated FA [25, 26], because their low hydrolysis rate at the 1 and 3 positions of TG render them resistant to hydrolysis by pancreatic lipase [27, 28]. Therefore, intestinal absorption appears to be a critical determinant of plasma DHA and EPA concentrations, and the efficiency 13
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
of this process is under circadian regulation.
T
Lipid digestion before absorption includes several steps such as partial gastric
RI P
digestion, emulsification by bile, hydrolysis by pancreatic lipase and micelle formation in the intestinal lumen. Thereafter, FA are taken up from the intestinal
SC
lumen into enterocytes via protein-independent diffusion and protein-dependent mechanisms such as CD36 and FABP2 that are expressed in the apical membranes
MA NU
of enterocytes. Most of these processes are enhanced during the active period and decreased during the resting period [29]. For example, bile acid synthesis is regulated in a circadian manner via the rhythmic expression of Cyp7a1, which is
ED
directly transcribed by clock molecules [30, 31]. Circadian changes in the efficiency of the intestine to absorb DHA and EPA seem to be regulated by several
PT
processes as described above.
The gut microbiota has emerged as an important contributor to the development of
CE
obesity and metabolic disorders through interactions with dietary factors [32, 33].
AC
Kishino et al. revealed that PUFA metabolism by gut bacteria affects host lipid composition [34]. Caesar et al. revealed that FO supplementation can affect the composition of the gut microbiota, which improves lipid metabolism by suppressing adipose inflammation [35]. The prebiotic effects of FO might have been involved in the FO-induced changes in the plasma FA composition and metabolic improvements identified herein. Several studies have found that the composition of gut microbiota conspicuously changes in a circadian fashion, and this is governed by the host circadian clock [36, 37]. The microbiota appears to play a critical role in circadian clock-nutrition interaction [38]. Therefore, circadian changes in intestinal microbiota composition might be involved in the 14
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
time-of-day-dependent intestinal FO absorption.
T
Plasma concentrations of linoleic acid, an essential FA, were significantly lower in
RI P
BF-FO, than DN-FO mice, although its daily fecal excretion rather tended to be lower in BF-FO mice. Furthermore, both the plasma concentrations and fecal
SC
excretion of palmitic acid, which is abundant in FO, were similar between the BF-FO and DN-FO mice, even though the efficiency of intestinal DHA and EPA
MA NU
absorption seems to be regulated in a circadian manner. These observations suggest that the regulatory mechanisms of plasma FA concentrations differs as noted below. We found here that FO supplementation reduced plasma concentrations of several
ED
FA such as palmitic, stearic and oleic acids, especially during the dark period and that these effects were more significant in BF-FO, than DN-FO mice. These effects
PT
seemed, at least in part, to result from a reduction in lipogenesis de novo via the suppressed expression of lipogenic genes such as Fasn, Acaca, Scd1, and Acly,
CE
since lipogenesis de novo follows a circadian rhythm that peaks with nocturnal
AC
feeding in mice [39]. The mRNA expression of these lipogenic genes was significantly suppressed in BF-FO mice, especially during the dark period. During the dark-to-light transition, plasma concentrations of both DHA and EPA, which are both responsible for suppressing lipogenic gene expression, were significantly higher in BF-FO, than in DN-FO mice. These time-of-day-dependent increases in plasma n-3 PUFA might be involved in the suppression of lipogenesis de novo in BF-FO mice. Linoleic acid is an essential n-6 PUFA, which is metabolized to arachidonic acid. The circadian
phase of plasma linoleic acid obviously differed between BF-FO and
DN-FO mice, peaking at ZT2 and ZT20, respectively. Furthermore, plasma linoleic 15
ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT
acid concentrations were significantly lower in BF-FO than DN-FO mice,
T
suggesting that the time of FO feeding affects not only plasma DHA and EPA
RI P
concentrations but also the circadian regulation of linoleic acid metabolism. On the other hand, plasma concentrations of arachidonic acid, which were also
SC
significantly reduced by FO supplementation, were identical throughout the day between BF-FO and DN-FO mice.
MA NU
Multiple mechanisms such as a reduction in lipogenesis de novo via the suppressed expression of lipogenic genes, inhibition of the key enzymes associated with hepatic TG synthesis, and increased β- FA oxidation are involved in the ability of
ED
n-3 PUFA to lower TG [4]. Although the ability of FO to lower TG is established, the precise mechanisms of this action are not completely understood. Several
PT
studies have indicated that other factors besides DHA and EPA such as palmitoleate induce the lipid-lowering effects of FO [40]. In addition to liver and adipose
CE
tissues, heart and skeletal muscle can facilitate the TG-lowering effects of FO by
AC
upregulating FA uptake and oxidation [3]. Lipogenesis de novo follows a circadian rhythm in mice that peaks with nocturnal feeding, whereas the hepatic β-oxidation of FA is enhanced during the light period [39]. We found here that FO supplementation at the time of activity onset obviously reduced hepatic and plasma lipid accumulation by suppressing lipogenic gene expression compared with supplementation at the time of activity offset. The fecal excretion of DHA and EPA derived from FO was significantly higher in DN-FO, than in BF-FO mice, although plasma concentrations of these were significantly higher in the BF-FO mice, suggesting that the intestinal absorptions of n-3 PUFA is most effective during the onset of activity.
