Abstract
Time restricted feeding (TRF) mitigates the high-fat diet-enhanced mammary tumorigenesis in a MMTV-PyMT breast cancer model. We performed untargeted metabolomic and targeted transcriptomic analyses on mammary tumors from MMTV-PyMT mice fed a standard AIN93G diet, a high-fat diet (HFD), or HFD with TRF (12 h, dark phase) and mammary glands from wild-type mice fed the AIN93G diet. The metabolic profile of mammary tumors differed from that of mammary glands; there was no impact of TRF upon tumor metabolome. TRF did reduce elevated expression of Hmgcr, Srebp1, Fads2, and Ppard in mammary tumors, indicating a down-regulation of lipid metabolism. The null effect of TRF on the metabolomic profile does not rule out changes in more refined intracellular signaling pathways. It suggests that the protection of TRF against mammary tumorigenesis may rely upon its action on the host rather than a direct effect on tumor metabolism.
