Furthermore, patients with obesity and cardiovascular disease are more likely to have suboptimal vitamin B6 status than healthy people. Therefore, we investigated the effects of dietary vitamin B6 restriction on hepatic gene expression and function in obese mice. C57BL\/6J male mice were fed a low-fat (LF) or high-fat (HF) diet in combination with sufficient (7 mg pyridoxine\/kg diet) or insufficient (1 mg) amounts of vitamin B6 for 16 weeks. Analysis of microarray data revealed that expressions of 4000 genes were significantly altered by the experimental diets (LF7, LF1, HF7, and HF1). The effects of dietary fat content on gene expressions were markedly greater than vitamin B6 content. Only three differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were overlapped between the LF1\/LF7 and HF1\/HF7 comparison. In the LF1\/LF7 comparison, 54 upregulated DEGs were enriched in gene ontology (GO) terms associated with the sterol metabolic process and 54 downregulated DEGs were enriched in GO terms associated with immune response. In HF1\/HF7 comparison, 26 upregulated DEGs were enriched in GO terms associated with amino acid catabolic process. High-fat consumption downregulated gene expressions associated with vitamin B6-dependent pathways. In conclusion, our data suggest that obesity may differentially regulate vitamin B6-associated metabolic pathways in the body.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu12123821","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,14]],"date-time":"2020-12-14T21:25:08Z","timestamp":1607981108000},"page":"3821","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Effects of Dietary Vitamin B6 Restriction on Hepatic Gene Expression Profile of Non-Obese and Obese Mice"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Hyun-Jee","family":"Um","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Nutrition, Seoul National University, Seoul 08826, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Je Won","family":"Ko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Nutrition, Seoul National University, Seoul 08826, Korea"},{"name":"Research Institute of Human Ecology, Seoul National University, Seoul 08826, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2066-2848","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sae Bom","family":"Won","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Nutrition and Food Science, Chungwoon University, Hongseong, Chungnam 32244, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7152-4085","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Young Hye","family":"Kwon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Nutrition, Seoul National University, Seoul 08826, Korea"},{"name":"Research Institute of Human Ecology, Seoul National University, Seoul 08826, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"362","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcn\/87.2.362","article-title":"Vitamin status in morbidly obese patients: A cross-sectional study","volume":"87","author":"Aasheim","year":"2008","journal-title":"Am.
