概要 While glycomics describesthe global analysis of carbohydrateswithin a biological system, the neologism, nutriglycomics,defines the combination of nutrition with glycomics.Generally, the glycanprofile of an organism can beaffectedby environmental changes. However, there have been no studies that have investigated the effects of dietary composition on the glycan profiles of blood serum. The aim of this study was to explorethe effects of dietary extremes, specifically high-fat and low-protein diets, on serum glycanprofiles in mice.To this end, 5-week-old, male, C57BL/6J mice were divided into 3 groups and were fed respective experimental diets: control, lowprotein, and highfat. After 3 weeks of feeding on the trial diets,47different glycans were detected in blood serum. The glycan profile of the high-fat diet group was notsignificantly different from that of the control group. In contrast, the low-protein diet group had a significant increase in5 types and a decrease in 13 types of glycans compared to the control group.These results validate our hypothesis that dietary composition, in this case, a low-protein diet, can affect serum glycan profiles in mice.
