Abstract
BACKGROUND Arachidonic acid (AA), one of the most ubiquitous polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), provides fluidity to mammalian cell membranes. It is derived from linoleic acid (LA) and can be transformed into various bioactive metabolites, including prostaglandins (PGs), thromboxanes (TXs), lipoxins (LXs), hydroxy-eicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs), leukotrienes (LTs), and epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), by different pathways. All these processes are involved in AA metabolism. Currently, in the context of an increasingly visible aging world population, several scholars have revealed the essential role of AA metabolism in osteoporosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and many other aging diseases. AIM OF REVIEW Although there are some reviews describing the role of AA in some specific diseases, there seems to be no or little information on the role of AA metabolism in aging tissues or organs. This review scrutinizes and highlights the role of AA metabolism in aging and provides a new idea for strategies for treating aging-related diseases. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW As a member of lipid metabolism, AA metabolism regulates the important lipids that interfere with the aging in several ways. We present a comprehensivereviewofthe role ofAA metabolism in aging, with the aim of relieving the extreme suffering of families and the heavy economic burden on society caused by age-related diseases. We also collected and summarized data on anti-aging therapies associated with AA metabolism, with the expectation of identifying a novel and efficient way to protect against aging.

[PMID: 38089620 PMCID: PMC10715313 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1208441] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Various animal and cell culture models of diabetes mellitus (DM) have been established and utilized to study diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). The divergence of metabolic abnormalities among these models makes their etiology complicated despite some similarities regarding the pathological and neurological features of DPN. Thus, this study aimed to review the omics approaches toward DPN, especially on the metabolic states in diabetic rats and mice induced by chemicals (streptozotocin and alloxan) as type 1 DM models and by genetic mutations (MKR, db/db and ob/ob) and high-fat diet as type 2 DM models. Omics approaches revealed that the pathways associated with lipid metabolism and inflammation in dorsal root ganglia and sciatic nerves were enriched and controlled in the levels of gene expression among these animal models. Additionally, these pathways were conserved in human DPN, indicating the pivotal pathogeneses of DPN. Omics approaches are beneficial tools to better understand the association of metabolic changes with morphological and functional abnormalities in DPN.

Li X, Zheng T, Zhang Y, Zhao Y, Liu F, Dai S, Liu X, Zhang M. Dickkopf-1 promotes vascular smooth muscle cell foam cell formation and atherosclerosis development through CYP4A11/SREBP2/ABCA1. FASEB J 2023; 37:e23048. [PMID: 37389895 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202300295r] [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: 02/18/2023] [Revised: 05/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/01/2023]
Abstract
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are considered to be a crucial source of foam cells in atherosclerosis due to their low expression level of cholesterol exporter ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) intrinsically. While the definite regulatory mechanisms are complicated and have not yet been fully elucidated, we previously reported that Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) mediates endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction, thereby aggravating atherosclerosis. However, the role of smooth muscle cell (SMC) DKK1 in atherosclerosis and foam cell formation remains unknown. In this study, we established SMC-specific DKK1-knockout (DKK1SMKO ) mice by crossbreeding DKK1flox/flox mice with TAGLN-Cre mice. Then, DKK1SMKO mice were crossed with APOE-/- mice to generate DKK1SMKO /APOE-/- mice, which exhibited milder atherosclerotic burden and fewer SMC foam cells. In vitro loss- and gain-of-function studies of DKK1 in primary human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) have proven that DKK1 prevented oxidized lipid-induced ABCA1 upregulation and cholesterol efflux and promoted SMC foam cell formation. Mechanistically, RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis of HASMCs as well as chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments showed that DKK1 mediates the binding of transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein delta (C/EBPδ) to the promoter of cytochrome P450 epoxygenase 4A11 (CYP4A11) to regulate its expression. In addition, CYP4A11 as well as its metabolite 20-HETE-promoted activation of transcription factor sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2) mediated the DKK1 regulation of ABCA1 in SMC. Furthermore, HET0016, the antagonist of CYP4A11, has also shown an alleviating effect on atherosclerosis. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that DKK1 promotes SMC foam cell formation during atherosclerosis via a reduction in CYP4A11-20-HETE/SREBP2-mediated ABCA1 expression.

Abstract
Vascular function is dynamically regulated and dependent on a bevy of cell types and factors that work in concert across the vasculature. The vasoactive eicosanoid, 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is a key player in this system influencing the sensitivity of the vasculature to constrictor stimuli, regulating endothelial function, and influencing the renin angiotensin system (RAS), as well as being a driver of vascular remodeling independent of blood pressure elevations. Several of these bioactions are accomplished through the ligand-receptor pairing between 20-HETE and its high-affinity receptor, GPR75. This 20-HETE axis is at the root of various vascular pathologies and processes including ischemia induced angiogenesis, arteriogenesis, septic shock, hypertension, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction and cardiometabolic diseases including diabetes and insulin resistance. Pharmacologically, several preclinical tools have been developed to disrupt the 20-HETE axis including 20-HETE synthesis inhibitors (DDMS and HET0016), synthetic 20-HETE agonist analogues (20-5,14-HEDE and 20-5,14-HEDGE) and 20-HETE receptor blockers (AAA and 20-SOLA). Systemic or cell-specific therapeutic targeting of the 20-HETE-GPR75 axis continues to be an invaluable approach as studies examine the molecular underpinnings activated by 20-HETE under various physiological settings. In particular, the development and characterization of 20-HETE receptor blockers look to be a promising new class of compounds that can provide a considerable benefit to patients suffering from these cardiovascular pathologies.

Abstract
Metformin is a hypoglycemic drug widely used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It has been proven to have analgesic and neuroprotective effects. Metformin can reverse pain in rodents, such as diabetic neuropathic pain, neuropathic pain caused by chemotherapy drugs, inflammatory pain and pain caused by surgical incision. In clinical use, however, metformin is associated with reduced plasma vitamin B12 levels, which can further neuropathy. In rodent diabetes models, metformin plays a neuroprotective and analgesic role by activating adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase, clearing methylgloxal, reducing insulin resistance, and neuroinflammation. This paper also summarized the neurological adverse reactions of metformin in diabetic patients. In addition, whether metformin has sexual dimorphism needs further study.
