Case Study

The Establishment and Validation of Diet Induced Obese mice for cancer research using metabolomic and proteomic analysis

TD2 has validated the use of diet-induced obese (DIO) mice to establish models of cancer in hosts that are more reflective of the clinical population. Utilizing advanced metabolomic and proteomic analysis, TD2 analyzed the differences in αPD-1 response between DIO and Controlled diet (CD) mice:

  • Global metabolomic profiling revealed significant metabolite alterations in DIO mice compared to CD mice. Specific metabolite alteration was found in a key metabolism pathway : Pentose Phosphate Pathway.

Figure 1: DIO mice showed an overall stronger response to αPD-1 treatment compared to CD mice with very little similarity of metabolites in treatment groups (left). Pentose phosphate pathway intermediates including Ribose-5-Phosphate showed a striking decrease in response to αPD-1 in DIO mice only (right).

  • Global proteomic analysis corroborated the metabolomic finding by showing significant protein alterations in metabolic pathways including the Warburg effect, Glycolysis, and alterations in PPP proteins.

Figure 2: Global proteomic evaluation identified enriched pathways in DIO untreated mice compared to DIO treated mice (left). Proteomic analysis also identified pentose phosphate pathway proteins to be altered mirroring the metabolomic data.
