Abstract
- Studies on the association between egg yolk (EY) consumption and obesity are limited and the involved mechanism still needs to be further explored. In this study, the effects of EY consumption under normal and high fat diets on mice based on lipidomics approach is compared. A total of 893 and 925 individual lipid species are determined in serum and liver, respectively. The results reveal that EY can alleviate the hyperlipidemia in HFD‐induced obese mice by increasing serum high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C) and neutral glycerolipid, hepatic fatty acids (FAs), and the size of adipose tissue cells. OPLS‐DA and S‐plots show that 29 lipid biomarkers in serum, mainly including phosphatidylcholine (PC), triglyceride (TG), and phosphatidylinositol (PI), and 44 lipid biomarkers in liver including TG, lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC), and lysophosphatidylethanolamine (lysoPE) are related to obesity caused by HFD. In addition, the regulation of EY on lipid disorders is mainly related to the decreases in serum TG and PC, and hepatic fatty acids (FAs), TG and diacylglycerol (DG), which is closely associated with glycerophospholipid metabolism. These findings suggest that long‐term treatment of EY consumption may not increase NAFLD risk factors in normal diet‐fed mice, further improving the hyperlipidemia in HFD‐induced mice. Practical Applications: This study investigates the overall effects of EY on normal and high‐fat diet by lipidomic analysis. It is concluded that the intake of EY can improve the hyperlipidemia in HFD‐induced obese mice by improving glycerophospholipid metabolism. These results facilitate to comprehensively evaluate the nutrition of EY and help elucidate the favorable effect of eggs. The flow chart of the egg yolk nutritional evaluation based on 100‐d mice experiment. The lipid profiles in serum and liver are further investigated using UPLC‐MS/MS method to elucidate its favorable effect on lipid metabolism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
