- W4380793753 abstract "Introduction: Dietary intervention emerges as a promising non-medicinal avenue for the treatment of a wide range of diseases. Limiting the intake of single amino acid has been shown to produce health benefits similar to that of calorie restriction yet without significant risks of malnutrition. One of the established regimen, methionine restriction (MR), was recently shown to confer pleiotropic benefits in cardiometabolic disease models, largely attributed to the activation of the GCN2-mediated amino acid starvation response pathway. However, the therapeutic and mechanistic implications of dietary amino acid restriction remain unknown in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), a lethal vascular disease that is without a cure other than the traumatic surgical repairs. Herein, we sought to probe the outcome of MR as well as the role of GCN2 in AAA. Methods and Results: Following a 2-week pre-treatment with MR (20% methionine level) or iso-caloric control diet, male Sprague Dawley rats were subjected to intraluminal elastase perfusion. At day 7, animals in the MR group showed significantly less aneurysmal dilation in comparison to control. To investigate the contribution from the GCN2-mediated amino acid starvation response, we subjected animals to the same dietary regimen of MR or control, followed by GCN2 silencing in the elastase-challenged aortic segments through localized infusion with GCN2-targeting or scrambled shRNA lentivirus. Indeed, tuning down aortic GCN2 effectively compromised the benefits exerted by MR against AAA. Finally, we determined whether GCN2 constitutes an intrinsic protector against aortic degeneration using GCN2 knockout mice ( Gcn2 -/- ). Following periaortic elastase challenge and β-aminopropionitrile treatment, Gcn2 -/- mice displayed exacerbated expansion of aneurysmal lesions in comparison to Gcn2 +/+ control mice at day 28 post procedure. Conclusions: Our study provides the first experimental evidence supporting a potential role of dietary amino acid restriction (e.g., MR) in the prevention of AAA development. Additionally, GCN2-mediated amino acid starvation response possibly underlies the anti-AAA benefit exerted by MR and serves as an intrinsic protector against AAA pathogenesis." @default.
