Abstract
The proportion of the elderly population is gradually increasing as a result of medical care advances, leading to a subsequent surge in geriatric diseases that significantly impact quality of life and pose a substantial healthcare burden. Sarcopenia, characterized by age-related decline in skeletal muscle mass and quality, affects a considerable portion of older adults, particularly the elderly, and can result in adverse outcomes such as frailty, fractures, bedridden, hospitalization, and even mortality. Skeletal muscle aging is accompanied by underlying metabolic changes. Therefore, elucidating these metabolic profiles and specific mechanisms holds promise for informing prevention and treatment strategies for sarcopenia. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the key metabolites identified in current clinical studies on sarcopenia and their potential pathophysiological alterations in metabolic activity. Besides, we examine potential therapeutic strategies for sarcopenia from a perspective focused on metabolic regulation.

Plasma metabolomic markers underlying skeletal muscle mitochondrial function relationships with cognition and motor function. Age Ageing 2024; 53:afae079.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lower skeletal muscle mitochondrial function is associated with future cognitive impairment and mobility decline, but the biological underpinnings for these associations are unclear. We examined metabolomic markers underlying skeletal muscle mitochondrial function, cognition and motor function. METHODS We analysed data from 560 participants from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (mean age: 68.4 years, 56% women, 28% Black) who had data on skeletal muscle oxidative capacity (post-exercise recovery rate of phosphocreatine, kPCr) via 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy and targeted plasma metabolomics using LASSO model. We then examined which kPCr-related markers were also associated with cognition and motor function in a larger sample (n = 918, mean age: 69.4, 55% women, 27% Black). RESULTS The LASSO model revealed 24 metabolites significantly predicting kPCr, with the top 5 being asymmetric dimethylarginine, lactic acid, lysophosphatidylcholine a C18:1, indoleacetic acid and triacylglyceride (17:1_34:3), also significant in multivariable linear regression. The kPCr metabolite score was associated with cognitive or motor function, with 2.5-minute usual gait speed showing the strongest association (r = 0.182). Five lipids (lysophosphatidylcholine a C18:1, phosphatidylcholine ae C42:3, cholesteryl ester 18:1, sphingomyelin C26:0, octadecenoic acid) and 2 amino acids (leucine, cystine) were associated with both cognitive and motor function measures. CONCLUSION Our findings add evidence to the hypothesis that mitochondrial function is implicated in the pathogenesis of cognitive and physical decline with aging and suggest that targeting specific metabolites may prevent cognitive and mobility decline through their effects on mitochondria. Future omics studies are warranted to confirm these findings and explore mechanisms underlying mitochondrial dysfunction in aging phenotypes.

[PMID: 38307123 PMCID: PMC10951864 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamda.2023.12.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/26/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify cognitive and health profiles of cognitively impaired older adults with the presence of prior mobility impairment, which may represent a specific pathway to the development of cognitive impairment or dementia. DESIGN Retrospective longitudinal study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS In adults aged ≥65 years who developed cognitive impairment or dementia, we compared cognitive and health profiles of those who did (n = 57) and did not (n = 86) experience slow gait up to 14 years before symptom onset. Measures of cognitive and biomarkers assessed longitudinally over an average of 7 years before symptom onset were compared between groups using linear mixed effects models, adjusted age, sex, race, and additionally adjusted for education for cognitive outcomes. RESULTS Compared to those without prior slow gait, those with slow gait had lower Digit Symbol Substitution Test and Pegboard dominant and nondominant hand performance. The slow gait group also had greater body mass index (BMI), waist, systolic blood pressure, lower high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein, and lower lysophosphatidylcholine 18:2, a lipid associated with mitochondrial function, and showed greater increases in 2-hour glucose levels of an oral glucose tolerance test. The slow gait group was more likely to take medication for hypertension and hypercholesterolemia. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS During the presymptomatic stage, cognitively impaired older persons who experience prior slow gait are more likely to have deficits in psychomotor speed and manual dexterity, an unfavorable metabolic and vascular profile, and lower lipid levels related to mitochondrial function. Older persons who exhibit mobility impairment should be evaluated for metabolic and vascular dysfunction at an early stage, and successful treatment of these conditions may slow down the progression of cognitive impairment or dementia.

Abstract
The study of age-related biomarkers from different biofluids and tissues within the same individual might provide a more comprehensive understanding of age-related changes within and between compartments as these changes are likely highly interconnected. Understanding age-related differences by compartments may shed light on the mechanism of their reciprocal interactions, which may contribute to the phenotypic manifestations of aging. To study such possible interactions, we carried out a targeted metabolomic analysis of plasma, skeletal muscle, and urine collected from healthy participants, age 22-92 years, and identified 92, 34, and 35 age-associated metabolites, respectively. The metabolic pathways that were identified across compartments included inflammation and cellular senescence, microbial metabolism, mitochondrial health, sphingolipid metabolism, lysosomal membrane permeabilization, vascular aging, and kidney function.

Isoquercitrin attenuates the progression of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in mice by modulating galectin-3-mediated insulin resistance and lipid metabolism. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 123:155188. [PMID: 38056146 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2023.155188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a global health problem with no effective treatment. Isoquercitrin (IQ) alters hepatic lipid metabolism and inhibits adipocyte differentiation. The underlying regulatory mechanisms of IQ in regulating insulin resistance (IR) and lipid metabolism remain unclear. PURPOSE This study was aimed at investigating the effects of IQ on NASH and deciphering whether the underlying mechanisms are via modulation of galectin-3 mediated IR and lipid metabolism. METHODS IR-HepG2 cell lines were used to demonstrate the ability of IQ to modulate galectin-3-mediated glucose disposal and lipid metabolism. A 20-week high-fat diet (HFD)-induced NASH model was established in C57BL/6J mice, and the protective effect of IQ on lipid disposal in the liver was verified. Further, the mRNA and protein levels of glucose and lipid metabolism were investigated, and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and acylcarnitine (AC) profiling were performed to characterize the changes in endogenous substances associated with mitochondrial function and lipid metabolism in serum and cells. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic features of IQ were explored in a rat model of NASH. RESULTS IQ restored liver function and ameliorated inflammation and lipid accumulationin NASH model mice. Notably, significant regulation of the proteins included fatty acid-generating and transporting, cholesterol metabolism enzymes, nuclear transcription factors, mitochondrial metabolism, and IR-related enzymes was noted to be responsible for the therapeutic mechanisms of IQ against experimental NASH. Serum lipid metabolism-related metabolomic assay confirmed that LPC and AC biosynthesis mostly accounted for the therapeutic effect of IQ in mice with NASH and that IQ maintained the homeostasis of LPC and AC levels. CONCLUSION This is the first study showing that IQ protects against of NASH by modulating galectin-3-mediated IR and lipid metabolism. The mechanisms responsible for liver protection and improved lipid metabolic disorder by IQ may be related to the suppression of IR and regulation of mitochondrial function and lipid metabolism. Galectin-3 down-regulation represents a potentially novel approach for the treatment and prevention of NASH.

Abstract
Lipids are essential components of brain structure and shown to affect brain function. Previous studies have shown that aging men undergo greater brain atrophy than women, but whether the associations between lipids and brain atrophy differ by sex is unclear. We examined sex differences in the associations between circulating lipids by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and the progression of MRI-derived brain atrophy index Spatial Patterns of Atrophy for Recognition of Brain Aging (SPARE-BA) over an average of 4.7 (SD = 2.3) years in 214 men and 261 women aged 60 or older who were initially cognitively normal using multivariable linear regression, adjusted for age, race, education, and baseline SPARE-BA. We found significant sex interactions for beta-oxidation rate, short-chain acylcarnitines, long-chain ceramides, and very long-chain triglycerides. Lower beta-oxidation rate and short-chain acylcarnitines in women and higher long-chain ceramides and very long-chain triglycerides in men were associated with faster increases in SPARE-BA (accelerated brain aging). Circulating lipid profiles of accelerated brain aging are sex-specific and vary by lipid classes and structure. Mechanisms underlying these sex-specific lipid profiles of brain aging warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Based on recent studies from our group and others, we hypothesize that mitochondrial dysfunction during aging may be the root cause of mobility decline through deficits in the musculoskeletal and central nervous systems. Mitochondrial dysfunction could be a therapeutic target to prevent mobility decline in aging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anisocytosis reflects unequal-sized red blood cells and is quantified using red blood cell distribution width (RDW). RDW increases with age and has been consistently associated with adverse health outcomes, such as cardiovascular disease and mortality. Why RDW increases with age is not understood. We aimed to identify plasma metabolomic markers mediating anisocytosis with aging. METHODS We performed mediation analyses of plasma metabolomics on the association between age and RDW using resampling techniques after covariate adjustment. We analyzed data from adults aged 70 or older from the main discovery cohort of the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA, n = 477, 46% women) and validation cohorts of the Health, Aging and Body Composition Study (Health ABC, n = 620, 52% women) and Invecchiare in Chianti, Aging in the Chianti Area (InCHIANTI) study (n = 735, 57% women). Plasma metabolomics was assayed using the Biocrates MxP Quant 500 kit in BLSA and Health ABC and liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry in InCHIANTI. RESULTS In all three cohorts, symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) significantly mediated the association between age and RDW. Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and 1-methylhistidine were also significant mediators in the discovery cohort and one validation cohort. In the discovery cohort, we also found choline, homoarginine, and several long-chain triglycerides significantly mediated the association between age and RDW. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE This metabolomics study of three independent aging cohorts identified a specific set of metabolites mediating anisocytosis with aging. Whether SDMA, ADMA, and 1-methylhistidine are released by the damaged erythrocytes with high RDW or they affect the physiology of erythrocytes causing high RDW should be further investigated.

Abstract
Sarcopenia is an age-related systemic disease characterized by skeletal muscle aging that generally severely affects the quality of life of elderly patients. Metabolomics analysis is a powerful tool for qualitatively and quantitatively characterizing the small molecule metabolomics of various biological matrices in order to clarify all key scientific problems concerning cell metabolism. The discovery of optimal therapy requires a thorough understanding of the cellular metabolic mechanism of skeletal muscle aging. In this review, the relationship between skeletal muscle mitochondria, amino acid, vitamin, lipid, adipokines, intestinal microbiota and vascular microenvironment has been separately reviewed from the perspective of metabolomics, and a new therapeutic direction has been suggested.
