OBJECTlVETo investigate the dynamic changes in urine metabolic profiles in rats induced by D-galactose(D-Gal),and to study the correlations between the differential metabolites and behavior indicators using the proton nuclear magnetic resonance(1H-NMR)-based metabonomics.METHODSSubcutaneous injection of D-Gal 100 mg·kg-1for 10 weeks was adopted in the model group.The sample of urine was collected at day 0(d0),d14,d28,d42,d56 and d70.NMR metabonomics technique was used for acquisition of data,which was analyzed by multivariate statistical analysis.The ability of learning and memory were measured by Morris water maze test from d70.After the behavioral test,the rats were sacrificed and the hippocampus was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.RESULTSPrincipal component analysis(PCA)results revealed that there was considerable difference between the model group and the normal control group at d70.According to the varible importance plot(VIP) calculation and S-plot scores,a total of 12 metabolites were screened and identified as potential biomarkers at d70.The differences of metabolites and Morris water maze test were subjected to correlation analysis,and the results showed that the levels of choline,lactate and dimethylglycine in the model group were significantly increased and negatively correlated with the times of crossing the platform (r=-0.90,-0.50 and-0.52;n=10).Formate was significantly negatively correlated with the time spent in the target area(r=-0.51,n=10),but choline and formate were significantly positively correlated with the escape latency(r=0.72 and 0.53;n=10).However,the levels of creatine and taurine decreased in the model group,which was significantly positively correlated to the times of acrossing platforms(r= 0.89 and 0.71;n=10),while alanine was significantly positively correlated to the time spent in the target area(r=0.74,n=10).Taurine,alanine and creatine were significantly negatively correlated with the escape latency(r=-0.66,-0.50 and-0.85;n=10).The correlations between the differential metabolites and the behavioral indicators were further proved.CONCLUSlONThe metabolic profile changes in urine from D-Gal induced aging model rats are significantly correlated with impairement of ability in learning and memory.1H-NMR metabonomics in urinary metabolic profile changes may be used as an evaluation index in the D-Gal induced aging rats model.

Various diseases follow the increment of aging[1-2].It seems to be very urgent to perform research on mechanisms of aging in order to improve the quality of life and prolong life[3].The D-galactose(D-Gal)induced aging rat model was most widely used in aging related research[4-5]. The D-Gal induced rat aging model could produce similar natural aging characteristic,especially with the decline in cognitive functions[6-8].D-gal is converted to aldose and hydrogen peroxide,which can speed up the generation of superoxide anion and oxygen-derived free radicals［9-10］.This will lead to formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs)that could enhance oxidative stress damage and abnormal phosphorylation and affect learning and memory functions［11-13］.Furthermore,the growing evidence suggests that the metabolism disordered［14］and oxidative stress［15］are associated with the neurodegenerative changes in D-gal induced aging rats［12，16-18］.

However,there are still many deficiencies in the D-gal induced aging rats model.The modeling time and evaluation indicators are not unified,which led to large differences in different laboratories. There were no specific and unequivocal unified standards to evaluate the reliability of the aging model.Therefore,a more efficient and new method is needed to evaluate the aging rat model.

Metabonomics technology is focused on the process of biological and biochemical changes in endogenous small molecule metabolites[19-21].Metabonomics technique has been used to analyze and dynamic ally monitor the changes in endogenous products in the model group during the establish ment of the aging model so that we can better understand the aging and non-aging zero-point, evaluate the effect of medicine and explore the mechanism on the model.We collected samples of urine in the normal control group and the model group at five time points.

In this study,we performed a comprehensive analysis of urinary metabolites on rats exposed the D-Gal,and investigated the D-Gal induced responses and metabolic changes to enhance the current understanding of D-Gal induced disorders and establish a new model evaluation method.

1 MATERlALS AND METHODS

1.1 Chemicals

Sodium 3-trimethylsilyl[2,2,3,3-d4]propionate (TSP)was purchased from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories,Inc.(MA,USA)and D2O(99.9%in D) was purchased from Landisville(Norell,USA.). Na2HPO4/NaH2PO4was bought from Tianjin Guangfu Fine Chemical Research Institute.The buffer(K2HPO4/NaH2PO4,1.5 mol·L-1,pH 7.4) was prepared in 100%D2O containing NaN3(0.04%).D-Gal was purchased from Amreco Company(USA,98%pure)and dissolved in 0.9%saline at the concentration of 25 mg·kg-1.

1.2 Animal experiments

A total of 20 young adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD)rats(160～200 g)were purchased from the Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co.,Ltd (Beijing,China).The rats were housed in a wellventilated animal experimental laboratory with a 12 h light/dark cycle,at a constant temperature of（24～26）℃,and a relative humidity of 40%～60%.Every five rats were randomly housed to a cage with a standard rodent diet and water ad libitum.Experimental protocols used in the present study were approved by the Committee on the Ethics of Animal Experiments of Shanxi University.

After one week of acclimatization,the rats were randomly divided into two groups with 10 rats in each group:the normal control group and the model group.D-Gal was subcutaneously injected to model group at the dose of 100 mg·kg-1for 10 weeks while the normal control received 0.9% saline.Body mass was examined weekly during D-Gal administration to monitor the general health of the two groups of animals.

1.3 Morris water maze(MWM)test

Spatial memory was assessed by MWM, which consisted of 5-day place navigation training and a probe test on the 6thday(d6).Spatial memory abilities were evaluated by escape latency,the times of rats crossing the platform and the time of the target area.Briefly,the MWM test was conducted in acircular water-maze tank(diameter,150 cm and height,60 cm)filled with water(temperature,25± 1℃)that had been opacified by adding ink.During the training procedure of learning,rats were tested during the light phase between 8∶00 am and 8∶00 pm.Each rat was given 4 swimming trials per day(20-min intertribal interval)for 5 consecutive days.In each trial,the rats were gently placed into water in one of the four quadrants,and the starting quadrant varied randomly over the trials. Rats were allowed a maximum of 60 s to find the escape platform,where it remained for 20 s.If the rats failed to find the platform within 60 s,then the rats were guided to the submerged platform and stay on the submerged platform for 20 s.For all MWM trials,the time that it took the rat to reach the submerged platform(escape latency)was recorded to assess spatial learning ability.On d6,another set of tests consisting of a 90 s trial with the submerged platform removed was conducted.Besides escape latency before reaching the platform,the time spent in the target quadrant and the numbers of target crossings over the previous location of the target submerged platform were recorded and collected by the video tracking equipment and processed by a computer equipped with ananalys-management system(Viewer 2 Tracking Software,Ji Liang Instruments,China)[22-23].

1.4 Sample collection and preparation for HE staining

24 h after the last injection of D-Gal,rats were anesthetized with 10%urethane.The hippocampus were immediately removed and put into a tube containing 4%paraformal dehyde solution for 24 h at 4℃.After routine tissue processing, the tissues were embedded in paraffin.Then,4 μm thick sections obtained from each paraffin block were stained with HE staining for histopathological evaluation.Finally,histological features of apoptotic cells in the hippocampus were observed under an optical microscope[24-25].

1.5 Sample collection and preparation for NMR measurements

During the experiment,the samples of urine were collected fortnightly at an identical time for all animals.The rats were placed in individual metabolic cages 12 h for urinary collection and removed waters and food at room temperature. The samples of urine were collected on the ice and at d0,d14,d28,d42,d56 and d70 continuously(12 h)in metabolic cages.In 13 201×g, 4℃under the condition of centrifugation for 15 min, the supernatant was obtained and stored at-80℃in a freezer until nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)analysis.

The samples of urine were thawed at room temperature just prior to NMR analysis.An aliquot (400 μL)of sample was mixed with phosphate buffer(150 μL,0.2 mol·L-1Na2HPO4/NaH2PO4, pH 7.4)and then centrifuged(14 000×g,10 min at 4℃)to remove any precipitates.The 550 μL of supernatant was then pipetted into a 5 mm NMR tube and D2O(80 μL)containing 0.01%sodium 3-trimethylsilyl-(2,2,3,3-2H4)-1-propionate(TSP) was added for the1H-NMR analysis.

1.6 1H-NMR spectral data reduction and pattern recognition

1H-NMR spectra of all the samples were collected at 298 K on a Bruker 600-MHz AVANCEⅢspectrometer,operating at 600.13 MHz for1H.Samples were analyzed using NOE-2D Spectroscopy (NOSEY)NMR spectra with water suppression.1H-NMR spectra were acquired using the following parameters:spectra width 12 345.7 Hz,65 536 complex data points,2.654 s of acquisition time, relaxation delay time 1 s,temperature 298.15 K and 64 scans.The free induction decays(FIDs) were multiplied by an exponential weighting function equivalent to a line boarding of 0.188 Hz prior to Fourier transformation(FT).TSP served as an internal reference standard(δ 0.00).

1.7 NMR data processing

The1H-NMR spectra were processed using MestReNova software(Mestrelab Research,Santiago de Compostella,Spain).All spectra phase and baseline in1H-NMR were manually corrected,and chemical shifts referenced to TSP at δ 0.00 ppm in MestReNova(Mestrelab Research,Spain).The spectra were divided and the signal integral computed in 0.02 ppm intervals across the regionδ 0.00-9.50 ppm.The region of δ 4.60-4.96 ppm was removed to eliminate the influence of water. The remaining spectral segments in each NMR spectrum were normalized to the total sum of the spectral intensities to partially compensate for differences in concentrations between numerous metabolites.

1.8 Multivariate statistical analysis and target profiling analysis

The normalized integral values of the data of d0,d14,d28,d42,d56 and d70 were respectively exported into SIMCA-P 13.0 software(Umetrics, Ume?,Sweden)as variables.

With a metabonomics platform,the patterns of metabolites in urine from rats at five time points after treatment with D-Gal were plotted by the PCA,orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis,(OPLS-DA)and S-plot.First of all, PCA was used to investigate general interrelations between the two groups.Then,OPLS-DA and S-plot were applied to analyse1H-NMR profiling data to identify potential biomarker.The PCA scores plot were used to showed the metabolic profile of the normal control and the model group.OPLS-DA is a supervised method to identify metabolites which could significantly contribute to group differentiations. To prevent over-interpretation,only two components were calculated for OPLS-DA models with yielded R2and Q2values as initial indicators for model quality.The score plot,which highlighted the inherent clustering trends in the urine and provided potential biomarkers,was visualized.The variable importance plot(VIP)value was produced to predict the influence of variables.A VIP value above 1.00 was considered statistically significant. Independent-sample t test was further used to investigate alterations in endogenous metabolites using SPSS 16.0(Chicago,IL,USA).P＜0.05 was considered statistically significant difference.

2 RESULTS

2.1 Effect of D-Gal on learning and memory in rats

The MWM test showed that the D-Gal at the dose of 100 mg·kg-1daily by subcutaneous injection for 10 weeks markedly extended the escape latency(P＜0.01,Fig.1A),reduced the times of crossing platform(Fig.1B)and significantly decreased time spent in the target area(P＜0.01, Fig.1C)compared with the normal control group. These results indicated that the D-Gal induced aging model rats had impaired spatial learning and memory and were statistically different from the normal control group.An aging rat model has been established.

2.2 Effect of D-Gal on hippocampus histopathology of rats

Rats in the normal control group had full hippocampus neurons,which were arranged tightly and morphologically intact.Pyramidalneurons presented round and large nuclei and clear nucleoli(Fig.2A).Widespread damage was visible in the hippocampus of the model group rats treated with D-gal(Fig.2B).Intercellular space increased,and cells were loosely arranged.Pyramidal neurons either presented a densely stained shrunken appearance with minimal cytoplasm or had disappeared.

2.3 1H-NMR assignments of major metabolites from rat urine induced by D-Gal

The representative 600 MHz1H-NMR NOESYPR1D spectra of urine from normal control and D-Gal induced group from d0 to d70 are shown in Fig.3.Numbers that represent the metabolites are shown in Tab.1.Assignments of endogenous metabolites were based on literature and confirmed by HMDB.

2.4 Score plot of PCA of urine from D-Gal induced rats

Following1H-NMR data analysis,the score plot of PCA was used to depict the general variation in the urine samples between the two groups that were collected at d14(Fig.4A),d28(Fig.4B),d42 (Fig.4C),d56(Fig.4D)and d70(Fig.4E).The samples of the normal control and the model group at d14 and d28 were not clearly separated, despite a tendency of the samples in the two groups at d42 and d56 to separate.The samples of the two groups at d70 were obviously separated. The analysis showed that urine metabolic profiles might reflect metabonomic perturbations at different times.The PCA results demonstrated that metabolic variations were closely correlated with D-Gal in the model group.The PCA scores plot werecompletely separated at the 10thweek between the normal control and the model group,which is consistent with the time of the models established successfully.

To find changed metabolites in urine samples collected at d70,the OPLS-DA was applied to filter out variations and missing values unrelated to the classification.The supervised OPLS-DA,which could improve biomarker discovery and separate the samples into two blocks,was applied to obtain better discrimination between the two groups.

The OPLS-DA score plots of metabolites in urine at d70 was shown in Fig.5A.To identify the metabolites contributing to the D-gal induced metabolic alterations in the model group,we calculated the VIP values,which reflected the importance of chemical shifts with respect to both class segregation and S-plot(Fig.5B).Variations with VIP values exceeding 1.0 for the selection of the chemical shift of the bins relevant to class segregation were first selected for further investigation because these bins were subsequently analyzed by independent-sample t test.Therefore,the significance of the differences in the levels of metabolites was checked and considered to be significant when P＜0.05.

As a result,12 differential metabolites were identified in the rat urine sample of d70.Through comprehensive analysis,we found that formate, methylamine,lactate,glycoprotein,dimethylglycine,and choline were significantly increased in the urine samples from D-Gal treatment for 10 weeks compared with rats of normal control group,while taurine,citrate,hippurate,alanine, creatine and 2-oxoglutarate were significantly decreased(P＜0.01)(Fig.6).

2.5 Differential metabolite related metabolic pathway analysis

In order to study the differentiaI metabolites involved in metabolic pathways,we refer red to KEGG(Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) and the 12 differential metabolites were introduced into MetPA for analysis.The result was shown in Fig.7.In this study,the impact-value threshold was set to 0.10,three potential targets pathways were filtered out.They were taurine and hypotaurine metabolism,glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism and citrate cycle(TCA cycle).

2.6 Correlation analysis of urinary differential metabolites and performance of MWM

Fig.5 OPLS-DA score plots(A)and S-plots(B)from urine of D-Gal induced aging rats at d70.

In order to measure the correlations between the differential metabolites and the performances of MWM,the Person′s correlation coefficient was introduced.The Person′s correlation coefficient could be used to reflect the degree of correlation betweens two random variables.With the increase in the absolute value of the correlation coefficient,the correlation was stronger. Whent the correlation coefficient was closer to 1 or-1,the correlation was stronger,but when the correlation coefficient was closer to 0,thecorrelation was weaker[26-27].The typical indexes of the MWM test,such as the time spent in the target area,the times of acrossing platforms and the escape latency,were used to evaluate the learning and memory ability of rats.In the model group, the time spend in the target area and the times of acrossing platform were decreased and the escape was latency increased compared with the normal control group.There was significant learning and memory impairment in D-gal induced rats as evaluated by water mirror test.Therefore, in this study,the correlation analysis was used to investigate the relationships between the differential metabolite and the performances of MWM.

The levels of differential metabolites from 10-week model rats and the performances of MWM were correlated using the Pearson′s correlation (Fig.8).In the model group,the level of choline, lactate,dimethylglycine,formate,methylamine and glycoprotein were increased compared with the normal control group,which showed negative correlations with the time spend in the target area and times of acrossing platforms,and positive correlations with the escape latency.However, the level of taurine,citrate,2-oxoglutarate,hippurate, alanine and creatine decreased in the model group, which was positively related to the time spend in target area and the times of acrossing platforms,and negatively correlated with escape latency.All these differential metabolites showed a significant correlation with performance of MWM.The results showed the changes in levels of differential metabolites were consistent with the behavior indicators in the aging rats induced by D-Gal.

3 DlSCUSSlON

The D-Gal induced rat aging model has been in increasingly applied in aging-associated neurodegenerative diseases,such as Alzheimer disease (AD)[28-29].In the course of the experiment,the rat aging model was constantly monitored and evaluated on the performance of the mirror MWM test[30].The escape latency was extended in model group compared with the normal control group,but times of crossing platform and the time spend in target area were significantly decreased in model group,suggesting that learning and memory had been impaired seriously in the model group of rats[31-32].The aging model was established at the 10thweek.The pathological sections of the hippocampus indicated that the hippocampus neurons were damaged compared with the normal control group.The learning and memory disorders might have been associated with neuron damage[25]. Behavioral results were consisted with the result of HE staining of hippocampus,which proved that the aging model has been successfully established.

On the basis of this D-Gal induced rat aging model,the1H-NMR metabonomics technology was used to investigate the mechanism of aging[33-35].According to the VIP and p(corr),12 differential metabolites were analyzed as the potential diagnosis markers for aging.Aging with the energy metabolism decreased,TCA cycle and pyruvate metabolism are important energy sources for the body.Citrate and α-ketoglutarate,as the important intermediate products in the TCA cycle,significantly decreased in the model group compared with the normal control group in this study,which reflected the aerobic oxidation capacity disorder in D-Gal rats[36].By contrast, lactate,as a metabolic product of anaerobic oxidation,increased significantly in the model group, which indicated that anaerobic metabolism was enhanced.Furthermore,the over accumulate lactate formate could lead to the pH increase and energy depletion,which caused oxidation damage and mitochondrial damage,further promoting cell damage,apoptosis and aging[37].Creatine is an important energy storage material and can permeate the blood-brain barrier[38].The decreased level of creatine in the model group was related to the brain atrophy and the learning and memory impairment.Dimethylglycine as a known feedback inhibitor of betaine-homocysteine methyl transferase (BHMT)can be metabolized to sarcosine or creatine[39].Dimethylglycine increased in the model group compared with the normal control group. This variation of dimethylglycine contents is coincident with creatine.The change in dimethylglycine and creatine contents showed that learning and memory were impaired in the D-Gal induced aging rats.Previous studies showed hippurate content decreased as age increased in SD rats[40].In this study,the hippurate decreased in the model group compared with the normal control group.In addition,abnormal cell apoptosis is considered as a major factor of(accelerated) aging[17],and taurine is an osmotic pressure regulator that decreased in the model group compared with the normal control group,which showed that D-Gal might induce cell apoptosis by osmotic regulation to accelerate the aging process.Glycoprotein,as an inflammatory mediator, that improves immune status of the body and plays an important role in the maintenance of immune balance[38],decreased in this study,which showed that the rats were in excessive inflammation in model group.The result showed that the balance between inflammatory and anti-inflammatory networks was disturbed,which resulted in a concomitant progressive increase in proinflammatory status.Besides,choline is the important components of the cell membrane structure and lipoprotein.It significantly increased in the model group,which indicated that cell membrane wasdamaged by lipid peroxidation and risk of cardiovascular disease was increased in humans. Furthermore,choline can be degraded to methylamine which is an important cell osmotic pressure regulator.The osmotic pressure was too high or too low,which can accelerate cell damage and apoptosis[41-43].However,in this study,the choline and methylamines contents were significantly increased in the model group compared with the normal control group,which might result in an inappropriate osmotic pressure and accelerate the apoptosis of cells in the aging rats.All these potential diagonasis markers were involved in three significant metabolic pathways:taurine and hypotaurine metabolism,glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism and TCA cycle.These signaling pathways are related to energy supply to cells, oxidative stress and apoptosis regulation.All of these accelerated the processes of aging.

In this study,D-Gal induced aging model of rats was successfully reproduced and studied. The results of the metabonomics in this study showed that D-Gal induced aging through disordering the anaerobic glucose metabolism,the intestinal bacteria metabolism and other metabolic pathways.The differential metabolites in urine in urine from the D-Gal induced aging model rats were significantly correlated with the ability of learning and memory impaired.The1H-NMR metabonomics in urinary could be used as an evaluation index in D-Gal induced aging rats model.
