Abstract
Owing to the advances in surgical technology, most solid tumours can be controlled by surgical excision. The priority should be tumour control, while some routine perioperative management might influence cancer progression in an unnoticed way. Moreover, it is increasingly recognized that effective perioperative management should include techniques to improve postoperative outcomes. These influences are elucidated by the different functions of circulating biomarkers in cancer patients. Here, circulating biomarkers with two types of clinical functions were reviewed: (i) circulating biomarkers for cancer progression monitoring, for instance, those related to cancer cell malignancy, tumour microenvironment formation, and early metastasis, and (ii) circulating biomarkers with relevance to postoperative outcomes, including systemic inflammation, immunosuppression, cognitive dysfunction, and pain management. This review aimed to provide new perspectives for the perioperative management of patients with cancer and highlight the potential clinical translation value of circulating biomarkers in improving outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed neurocognitive recovery (DNR) is a cognitive change that affects patients after anesthesia and surgery, with a high incidence, severely impairing their quality of life. We identified relevant metabolic pathways to determine predictive lipid markers and understand the pathogenesis of DNR. METHODS A non-targeted lipidomic strategy using Waters Acquity I Class UPLC-Xevo G2-S QTOF UPLC-MS was employed to identify different lipids in the 24 h postoperative plasma of patients whose cognitive function was assessed 7-14 days after surgery. Principal component analysis, orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to identify potential biomarkers for predicting DNR. Metabolic pathway analysis was performed using the online platform MetaboAnalyst 5.0. RESULTS Pre-operative hemoglobin was identified as an independent risk factor for DNR. The individual areas under the ROC curves (AUC) of the 5 representative lipids were all > 0.6, and the AUC of the combined predictor was 0.912. Glycerophospholipid metabolic pathway was dysregulated in patients with subsequent DNR. CONCLUSION This study identified a series of potential predictive biomarkers for DNR. These data suggested that glycerophospholipid metabolism may be the mechanism underlying the occurrence and progression of DNR.

Transl Neurosci 2023; 14:20220317. [PMID: 38023298 PMCID: PMC10656729 DOI: 10.1515/tnsci-2022-0317] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2023] [Revised: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Due to high rates of incidence and disability, postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) currently receives a lot of clinical attention. Disturbance of fatty acid oxidation is a potential pathophysiological manifestation underlying POCD. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is a significant transcription factor of fatty acid oxidation that facilitates the transfer of fatty acids into the mitochondria for oxidation. The potential role of PPARα intervention in POCD warrants consideration. Objective The present study is aimed to investigate whether PPARα agonist fenofibrate (FF) could protect long-term isoflurane anesthesia-induced POCD model and to explore the potential underlying function of fatty acid oxidation in the process. Methods We established the POCD model via 6 h long-term isoflurane anesthesia in vivo with C57BL/6J mice and in vitro with N2a cells. Cells and mice were pretreated with PPARα agonist FF before anesthesia, after which fatty acid oxidation and cognitive function were assessed. The level of fatty acid oxidation-related proteins was determined using western blotting. The contextual fear conditioning test was utilized to evaluate mice's learning and memory. Results Our results showed that 6 h long-term isoflurane anesthesia induced contextual memory damage in mice, accompanied by decreases of fatty acid oxidation-related proteins (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α, carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A, and PPARα) both in the hippocampus of POCD mice and in N2a cells. In the N2a cell model, pretreatment of PPARα agonist FF led to the upregulation of fatty acid oxidation-related proteins. In vivo results showed that preconditioned FF reached similar effects. More crucially, FF has been shown to reduce cognitive damage in mice after long-term isoflurane anesthesia. Additionally, our data showed that after blocking fatty acid oxidation by Etomoxir, FF failed to protect cognitive function from long-term isoflurane anesthesia. Conclusions Pretreatment of PPARα agonist FF can protect against long-term isoflurane anesthesia-induced POCD by enhancing fatty acid oxidation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed neurocognitive recovery (dNCR) is a common complication of the central nervous system in elderly patients. Currently, it is not clear whether the occurrence of dNCR is associated with the intestinal microbiota and its related metabolites. This study investigated the preoperative intestinal microflora and faecal metabolites of dNCR patients. METHODS Twenty-two elderly urological patients were divided into a dNCR group (D group) and a non-dNCR group (ND group) according to the postoperative Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score on the first and third day after surgery. A postoperative MMSE score ≤ 2 points compared with the preoperative score was considered evidence of dNCR. We used a comprehensive method that combined 16S rRNA gene sequencing and untargeted metabolomics to study the preoperative intestinal microflora and faecal metabolites of the two groups, and conducted correlation analysis between them. RESULTS Compared with the D group, the microbial community in the ND group was more abundant. At the family level, the ND group was significantly enriched in Lachnospiraceae, Peptostreptococcaceae and Muribaculaceae. At the genus level, the faecal microbiota of the ND group was differentially enriched in Agathobacter, Dorea, Fusicatenibacter, Coprococcus_2 and Romboutsia while that of the D group was differentially enriched in Anaerofilum. Untargeted metabolomics revealed significant differences in eight different metabolites between the two groups, including ribose, ethanol, leucine, maltose, pentadecanoic acid, malonic acid 1,3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid and 3-hydroxypalmitic acid. In addition, differential metabolites were associated with the abundance of specific bacteria. CONCLUSIONS The occurrence of dNCR may be associated with the intestinal flora and its related metabolite composition of patients before surgery.

Abstract
Dietary changes have significant effects on gut microbiota and host health. Weaning is an important stage of dietary change in ruminants. The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota of calf in the early life undergo some changes, and the plasticity of the calf is beneficial to cope with these changes and challenges. However, the complex development of hindgut microorganisms in post-weaning ruminants is not fully understood. In this study, we used 16S rRNA sequencing and untargeted metabolomic analysis to determine the cecal and colonic bacterial community and associated metabolome of Mongolian cattle at age of the 5th (at weaning), 18th, and 36th months. Moreover, the maturation patterns of the hindgut bacterial community and the dynamic changes of metabolites were also explored. Sequencing results showed that Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were the dominant phyla in the cecum and colon. The linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) analysis revealed bacterial features that were stage-specific in the cecum and colon. The relative abundance of Ruminococcaceae, a microbial family related to fiber degradation, gradually increased with age in the cecum, while the relative abundance of Bacteroides and Alistipes, which are related to immunity, gradually increased in the colon. The differential metabolites in the cecum and colon were mainly enriched in steroid hormone biosynthesis, primary bile acid biosynthesis, and arachidonic acid metabolism between different ages of Mongolian cattle after weaning. Consequently, this dual omics analysis provided important information on the changes in microbial and metabolite interactions in Mongolian cattle after weaning. The microorganisms and metabolites in the cecum and colon further enhanced the abiotic stress resistance of Mongolian cattle to the harsh environment. The information obtained in this study is of great significance for future strategies of cecum and colon microbiota regulation of post-weaning Mongolian cattle in the harsh Mongolian Plateau ecosystem.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a cognitive deterioration and dementia that arise after a surgical procedure, affecting up to 40% of surgery patients over the age of 60. The precise etiology and molecular mechanisms underlying POCD remain uncovered. These reasons led us to employ integrative bioinformatics and machine learning methodologies to identify several biological signaling pathways involved and molecular signatures to better understand the pathophysiology of POCD. A total of 223 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) comprising 156 upregulated and 67 downregulated genes were identified from the circRNA microarray dataset by comparing POCD and non-POCD samples. Gene ontology (GO) analyses of DEGs were significantly involved in neurogenesis, autophagy regulation, translation in the postsynapse, modulating synaptic transmission, regulation of the cellular catabolic process, macromolecule modification, and chromatin remodeling. Pathway enrichment analysis indicated some key molecular pathways, including mTOR signaling pathway, AKT phosphorylation of cytosolic targets, MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathway, PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, nitric oxide signaling pathway, chaperones that modulate interferon signaling pathway, apoptosis signaling pathway, VEGF signaling pathway, cellular senescence, RANKL/RARK signaling pathway, and AGE/RAGE pathway. Furthermore, seven hub genes were identified from the PPI network and also determined transcription factors and protein kinases. Finally, we identified a new predictive drug for the treatment of SCZ using the LINCS L1000, GCP, and P100 databases. Together, our results bring a new era of the pathogenesis of a deeper understanding of POCD, identified novel therapeutic targets, and predicted drug inhibitors in POCD.

Abstract
Background Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is considered to be one of the surgical types with the highest incidence of post-operative delirium (POD). POD has been associated with a prolonged intensive care and hospital stay, long-term neurocognitive deterioration, and increased mortality. However, the specific pathogenesis of POD is still unclear. Untargeted metabolomics techniques can be used to understand the changes of serum metabolites in early POD to discover the relationship between serum metabolites and disease. Materials and Methods The present study recruited 58 elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB. Serum was collected within the first 24 h after surgery. The Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) and ICU-CAM assessments were used to identify patients who experienced POD. All patients with normal post-operative cognitive assessment were included in the non-POD groups. Moreover, we collected serum from 20 healthy adult volunteers. We performed untargeted analyses of post-operative serum metabolites in all surgical groups, as well as serum metabolites in healthy non-surgical adults by using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and analyzed metabolic profiles and related metabolites. Results The probability of POD after cardiac surgery were 31%. There were statistically significant differences in post-operative mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay time and post-operative hospital stay between POD and non-POD group (P < 0.05). And ICU stay time was an independent risk factor for POD. The analysis revealed that a total of 51 differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) were identified by comparing the POD and non-POD group, mostly lipids and lipid-like molecules. Three phosphatidylinositol (PI) were down-regulated in POD group, i.e., PI [18:0/18:2 (9Z, 12Z)], PI [20:4 (8Z, 11Z, 14Z, 17Z)/18:0], and PI [18:1 (9Z)/20:3 (8Z, 11Z, 14Z)]. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that three kinds of PI metabolites had the highest area under the curve (AUC), which were 0.789, 0.781, and 0.715, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that the expression of three PIs was negatively correlated with the incidence of POD. Conclusion Our findings suggest that lipid metabolism plays an important role in the serum metabolic profile of elderly patients with POD in the early post-operative period. Low serum lipid metabolic PI was associated with incidence of POD in elderly following cardiac bypass surgery, which may provide new insights into the pathogenesis of POD.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a major postoperative complication. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) exerts a neuroprotective function against neuro-inflammatory responses. The present study investigated the role of TREM2 in anesthesia and surgery-induced cognitive impairment and the potential related mechanism. Our results revealed that TREM2 was downregulated, coupled with activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and subsequent IL-1β expression on postoperative day 3. A corresponding decline in PSD-95 and BDNF was found at the same time point. The key regulator of mitophagy PINK1 and Parkin protein levels were significantly decreased following surgery and anesthesia. TREM2 overexpression partially reversed postoperative cognitive impairment and enhanced PSD-95 and BDNF expression. TREM2 overexpression also improved mitophagy function and inhibited activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and associated production of IL-1β. Our findings demonstrate that TREM2 rescues anesthesia and surgery-induced spatial learning and memory impairment and neuro-inflammation in aged C57/BL6 mice, which may be at least partially mediated through the activation of mitophagy and subsequent inhibition of the NLRP3 inflammasome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-operative recognition dysfunction (POCD) is a kind of central nervous system complication that appears after operative anesthesia. Recent studies on the mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in neurodegenerative diseases are abundant. AIMS The study aimed to explore the expression pattern and role of lncRNA OIP5-AS1 in POCD and to investigate its underlying mechanism in old rats. METHODS The old rats were exposed to isoflurane to mimic the POCD in the elderly, and their cognitive function was tested via Morris water maze (MWM) test. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was applied for the concentration detection of inflammation and oxidative stress-related factors. Luciferase reporter assay was done for the target gene analysis. RESULTS Downregulation of OIP5-AS1 was accompanied by isoflurane treatment in rats, overexpression of OIP5-AS1 induced the rats to spend more time in the target quadrant, and shorten escape latency time. OIP5-AS1 inhibited the release of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β, GSH and superoxide dismutase, decreased the activation of caspase-3, but promoted malondialdehyde release. miR-186-5p was a target miRNA of OIP5-AS1, and exhibited high expression in rats after isoflurane exposure. miR-186-5p can abolish the beneficial role of OIP5-AS1 against cognitive impairment, inflammatory response, oxidative stress and neuron apoptosis. CONCLUSION OIP5-AS1 plays a neuroprotective role in elderly POCD rats through sponging miR-186-5p, and it is related to OIP5-AS1/miR-186-5p mediated inflammatory response, oxidative stress and neuron apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between blood lipids and cognitive function in schizophrenia is still controversial. Thus, the present study aimed to verify the association between various lipid parameters and cognitive impairment in schizophrenic patients and potential lipid pathways. METHODS A total of 447 adult inpatients with schizophrenia were divided into cognitive normal and cognitive impairment groups based on the Mini-Mental State Examination with a cut-off of 26. The blood lipid parameters were defined as abnormal levels based on the guideline. The liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method was used to preliminarily explore the potential lipid metabolism pathway associated with cognitive impairment. RESULTS There were 368 (82.3%) patients who had cognitive impairment. Herein, apolipoprotein B was positively associated with cognitive function in overall patients and age (≥45 and <45 years) and sex subgroups. After excluding patients with hypertension and diabetes, ApoB was still significantly associated with cognitive function in all the patients. The associations between other lipid parameters, including non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride, and cognitive impairment were heterogeneous in age and sex subgroups. In contrast, total cholesterol and apolipoprotein A1 were not significantly associated with cognitive impairment. Metabolomics analysis showed that metabolic pathway mainly involved sphingolipid metabolism. Meanwhile, sphinganine and 3-dehydrosphinganine were positively correlated with lipid parameters and decreased in patients with cognitive impairment as compared to those with normal cognition. CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests a positive association between lipids and cognitive function in schizophrenic patients and needs to be further verified by a prospective study.
