Abstract
It is now recognized that sphingolipids are involved in the regulation and pathophysiology of several cellular processes such as proliferation, migration, and survival. Growing evidence also implicates them in regulating the behaviour of stem cells, the use of which is increasingly finding application in regenerative medicine. A shotgun lipidomic study was undertaken to determine whether sphingolipid biomarkers exist that can regulate the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human Dental Pulp Stem Cells (hDPSCs). Sphingolipids were extracted and identified by direct infusion into an electrospray mass spectrometer. By using cells cultured in osteogenic medium and in medium free of osteogenic stimuli, as a control, we analyzed and compared the SPLs profiles. Both cellular systems were treated at different times (72 hours, 7 days, and 14 days) to highlight any changes in the sphingolipidomic profiles in the subsequent phases of the differentiation process. Signals from sphingolipid species demonstrating clear differences were selected, their relative abundance was determined, and statistical differences were analyzed. Thus, our work suggests a connection between sphingolipid metabolism and hDPSC osteogenic differentiation and provides new biomarkers for improving hDPSC-based orthopaedic regenerative medicine.

Distinct plasma metabolomic signatures differentiate autoimmune encephalitis from drug-resistant epilepsy. Ann Clin Transl Neurol 2024; 11:1897-1908. [PMID: 39012808 PMCID: PMC11251473 DOI: 10.1002/acn3.52112] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/18/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Differentiating forms of autoimmune encephalitis (AE) from other causes of seizures helps expedite immunotherapies in AE patients and informs studies regarding their contrasting pathophysiology. We aimed to investigate whether and how Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)-based metabolomics could differentiate AE from drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE), and stratify AE subtypes. METHODS This study recruited 238 patients: 162 with DRE and 76 AE, including 27 with contactin-associated protein-like 2 (CASPR2), 29 with leucine-rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) and 20 with N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antibodies. Plasma samples across the groups were analyzed using NMR spectroscopy and compared with multivariate statistical techniques, such as orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). RESULTS The OPLS-DA model successfully distinguished AE from DRE patients with a high predictive accuracy of 87.0 ± 3.1% (87.9 ± 3.4% sensitivity and 86.3 ± 3.6% specificity). Further, pairwise OPLS-DA models were able to stratify the three AE subtypes. Plasma metabolomic signatures of AE included decreased high-density lipoprotein (HDL, -(CH2)n-, -CH3), phosphatidylcholine and albumin (lysyl moiety). AE subtype-specific metabolomic signatures were also observed, with increased lactate in CASPR2, increased lactate, glucose, and decreased unsaturated fatty acids (UFA, -CH2CH=) in LGI1, and increased glycoprotein A (GlycA) in NMDAR-antibody patients. INTERPRETATION This study presents the first non-antibody-based biomarker for differentiating DRE, AE and AE subtypes. These metabolomics signatures underscore the potential relevance of lipid metabolism and glucose regulation in these neurological disorders, offering a promising adjunct to facilitate the diagnosis and therapeutics.

Abstract
Due to their immunomodulatory function, mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a promising therapeutic with the potential to treat neuroinflammation associated with neurodegenerative diseases. This function is mediated by secreted extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs). Despite established safety, MSC clinical translation has been unsuccessful due to inconsistent clinical outcomes resulting from functional heterogeneity. Current approaches to mitigate functional heterogeneity include 'priming' MSCs with inflammatory signals to enhance function. However, comprehensive evaluation of priming and its effects on MSC-EV function has not been performed. Furthermore, clinical translation of MSC-EV therapies requires significant manufacturing scale-up, yet few studies have investigated the effects of priming in bioreactors. As MSC morphology has been shown to predict their immunomodulatory function, we screened MSC morphological response to an array of priming signals and evaluated MSC-EV identity and potency in response to priming in flasks and bioreactors. We identified unique priming conditions corresponding to distinct morphologies. These conditions demonstrated a range of MSC-EV preparation quality and lipidome, allowing us to discover a novel MSC-EV manufacturing condition, as well as gain insight into potential mechanisms of MSC-EV microglia modulation. Our novel screening approach and application of priming to MSC-EV bioreactor manufacturing informs refinement of larger-scale manufacturing and enhancement of MSC-EV function.

Abstract
Cell outer membranes contain glycosphingolipids and protein receptors, which are integrated into glycoprotein domains, known as lipid rafts, which are involved in a variety of cellular processes, including receptor-mediated signal transduction and cellular differentiation process. In this study, we analyzed the lipidic composition of human Dental Pulp-Derived Stem Cells (DPSCs), and the role of lipid rafts during the multilineage differentiation process. The relative quantification of lipid metabolites in the organic fraction of DPSCs, performed by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, showed that mono-unsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) were the most representative species in the total pool of acyl chains, compared to polyunsatured fatty acids (PUFAs). In addition, the stimulation of DPSCs with different culture media induces a multilineage differentiation process, determining changes in the gangliosides pattern. To understand the functional role of lipid rafts during multilineage differentiation, DPSCs were pretreated with a typical lipid raft affecting agent (MβCD). Subsequently, DPSCs were inducted to differentiate into osteoblast, chondroblast and adipoblast cells with specific media. We observed that raft-affecting agent MβCD prevented AKT activation and the expression of lineage-specific mRNA such as OSX, PPARγ2, and SOX9 during multilineage differentiation. Moreover, this compound significantly prevented the tri-lineage differentiation induced by specific stimuli, indicating that lipid raft integrity is essential for DPSCs differentiation. These results suggest that lipid rafts alteration may affect the signaling pathway activated, preventing multilineage differentiation.

Abstract
Flavonoids enhance the self-renewal and differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and have therapeutic activities, including regenerative, anti-oxidative, and anti-inflammatory effects. Recent studies have revealed that MSC-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have therapeutic effects on tissue regeneration and inflammation. To facilitate further research on the therapeutic potential of MSC-EVs derived from flavonoid-treated MSCs, we surveyed the production of EVs and their therapeutic applications in wound regeneration. MSCs treated with flavonoids enhanced EV production twofold compared with naïve MSCs. EVs produced by MSCs treated with flavonoids (Fla-EVs) displayed significant anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effects in vitro. The wound-healing capacity of EVs was mediated by the upregulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling. Interestingly, the protein level of p-ERK under inhibition of MEK signals was maintained in Fla-EV-treated fibroblasts, suggesting that Fla-EVs have a higher therapeutic potential than naïve MSC-EVs (Cont-EVs) in wound healing. Moreover, the in vivo wound closure effect of the Fla-EVs showed significant improvement compared with that of the flavonoid-only treatment group and the Cont-EVs. This study provides a strategy for the efficient production of EVs with superior therapeutic potential using flavonoids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) are the most promising stem cells for the treatment of multiple inflammatory and immune diseases due to their easy acquisition and potent immuno-regulatory capacities. These immune functions mainly depend on the MSC secretion of soluble factors. Recent studies have shown that the metabolism of MSCs plays critical roles in immunomodulation, which not only provides energy and building blocks for macromolecule synthesis but is also involved in the signaling pathway regulation. AIM OF REVIEW A thorough understanding of metabolic regulation in MSC immunomodulatory properties can provide new sights to the enhancement of MSC-based therapy. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW MSC immune regulation can be affected by cellular metabolism (glucose, adenosine triphosphate, lipid and amino acid metabolism), which further mediates MSC therapy efficiency in inflammatory and immune diseases. The enhancement of glycolysis of MSCs, such as signaling molecule activation, inflammatory cytokines priming, or environmental control can promote MSC immune functions and therapeutic potential. Besides glucose metabolism, inflammatory stimuli also alter the lipid molecular profile of MSCs, but the direct link with immunomodulatory properties remains to be further explored. Arginine metabolism, glutamine-glutamate metabolism and tryptophan-kynurenine via indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) metabolism all contribute to the immune regulation of MSCs. In addition to the metabolism dictating the MSC immune functions, MSCs also influence the metabolism of immune cells and thus determine their behaviors. However, more direct evidence of the metabolism in MSC immune abilities as well as the underlying mechanism requires to be uncovered.

Abstract
Lipid rafts are highly ordered regions of the plasma membrane enriched in signaling proteins and lipids. Their biological potential is realized in exosomes, a subclass of extracellular vesicles (EVs) that originate from the lipid raft domains. Previous studies have shown that EVs derived from human placental mesenchymal stromal cells (PMSCs) possess strong neuroprotective and angiogenic properties. However, clinical translation of EVs is challenged by very low, impure, and heterogeneous yields. Therefore, in this study, lipid rafts are validated as a functional biomaterial that can recapitulate the exosomal membrane and then be synthesized into biomimetic nanovesicles. Lipidomic and proteomic analyses show that lipid raft isolates retain functional lipids and proteins comparable to PMSC-EV membranes. PMSC-derived lipid raft nanovesicles (LRNVs) are then synthesized at high yields using a facile, extrusion-based methodology. Evaluation of biological properties reveals that LRNVs can promote neurogenesis and angiogenesis through modulation of lipid raft-dependent signaling pathways. A proof-of-concept methodology further shows that LRNVs could be loaded with proteins or other bioactive cargo for greater disease-specific functionalities, thus presenting a novel type of biomimetic nanovesicles that can be leveraged as targeted therapeutics for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Lentiviral transduction of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) induces long-term transgene expression and holds great promise for multiple gene therapy applications. Polybrene is the most commonly used reagent to improve viral gene transfer efficiency in laboratory research; however, it is not approved for human use and has also been shown to impair MSC proliferation and differentiation. Therefore, there is a need for optimized transduction protocols that can also be adapted to clinical settings. LentiBOOST (LB) and protamine sulfate are alternative transduction enhancers (TEs) that can be manufactured to current Good Manufacturing Practice standards, are easily applied to existing protocols, and have been previously studied for the transduction of human CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells. In this study, we investigated these reagents for the enhancement of lentiviral transduction of adipose-derived MSCs. We found that the combination of LB and protamine sulfate could yield comparable or even superior transduction efficiency to polybrene, with no dose-dependent adverse effects on cell viability or stem cell characteristics. This combination of TEs represents a valuable clinically compatible alternative to polybrene with the potential to significantly improve the efficiency of lentiviral transduction of MSCs for gene therapy applications.

A novel serum metabolomic panel distinguishes IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis from primary sclerosing cholangitis. Liver Int 2022; 42:1344-1354. [PMID: 35129255 PMCID: PMC9546203 DOI: 10.1111/liv.15192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Revised: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 01/06/2022] [Indexed: 02/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) are chronic fibro-inflammatory immune-mediated hepatobiliary conditions that are challenging to distinguish in a clinical setting. Accurate non-invasive biomarkers for discriminating PSC and IgG4-SC are important to ensure a correct diagnosis, prompt therapy and adequate cancer surveillance. METHODS We performed nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabolomic profiling using serum samples collected prospectively from patients with PSC (n = 100), IgG4-SC (n = 23) and healthy controls (HC; n = 16). RESULTS Multivariate analysis of the serum metabolome discriminated PSC from IgG4-SC with greater accuracy (AUC 0.95 [95%CI 0.90-0.98]) than IgG4 titre (AUC 0.87 [95%CI 0.79-0.94]). When inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) was excluded as a comorbid condition (IgG4-SC n = 20, PSC n = 22), the diagnostic AUC increased to 1.0, suggesting that the metabolome differences identified are not a result of the increased prevalence of IBD in PSC relative to IgG4-SC patients. Serum lactate (p < .0001), glucose (p < .01) and glutamine (p < .01) metabolites were increased in IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) and IgG4-SC individuals compared to PSC, whereas mobile choline (p < .05), 3-hydroxybutyric acid (p < .01) and -CH3 lipoprotein resonances (p < .01) were decreased. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, serum metabolomic profiling has the potential to be incorporated as a diagnostic criterion, independent of IgG4 titre, to improve the diagnosis of IgG4-RD and help distinguish IgG4-SC from PSC.

Abstract
Cell therapies are expected to increase over the next decade owing to increasing demand for clinical applications. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have been explored to treat a number of diseases, with some successes in early clinical trials. Despite early successes, poor MSC characterization results in lessened therapeutic capacity once in vivo. Here, we characterized MSCs derived from bone marrow (BM), adipose tissue and umbilical cord tissue for sphingolipids (SLs), a class of bioactive lipids, using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. We found that ceramide levels differed based on the donor's sex in BM-MSCs. We detected fatty acyl chain variants in MSCs from all three sources. Linear discriminant analysis revealed that MSCs separated based on tissue source. Principal component analysis showed that interferon-γ-primed and unstimulated MSCs separated according to their SL signature. Lastly, we detected higher ceramide levels in low indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase MSCs, indicating that sphingomyelinase or ceramidase enzymatic activity may be involved in their immune potency.

Abstract
PURPOSE As an important public health problem, osteoporosis (OP) in China is also in an upward trend year by year. As a standard method for diagnosing OP, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) cannot analyze the pathological process but only see the results. It is difficult to evaluate the early diagnosis of OP. Our study was carried out through a serum metabolomic study of OP in Chinese postmenopausal women on untargeted gas chromatography (GC)/liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrometry (MS) to find possible diagnostic markers. MATERIALS AND METHODS 50 Chinese postmenopausal women with osteoporosis and 50 age-matched women were selected as normal controls. We first used untargeted GC/LC-MS to analyze the serum of these participants and then combined it with a large number of multivariate statistical analyses to analyze the data. Finally, based on a multidimensional analysis of the metabolites, the most critical metabolites were considered to be biomarkers of OP in postmenopausal women. Further, biomarkers identified relevant metabolic pathways, followed by a map of metabolic pathways found in the database. RESULTS We found that there may be metabolic pathway disorders like glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism in postmenopausal women with OP. 18 differential metabolites are considered to be potential biomarkers of OP in postmenopausal women which are a major factor in metabolism and bone physiological function. CONCLUSION These findings can be applied to clinical work through further validation studies. It also shows that metabonomic analysis has great potential in the application of early diagnosis and recurrence monitoring in postmenopausal OP women.

Abstract
Due to the metabolic nature of osteoporosis, this study was conducted to identify metabolomic studies investigating the metabolic profile of low bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis. A comprehensive systematic literature search was conducted through PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase databases up to April 08, 2020, to identify observational studies with cross-sectional or case-control designs investigating the metabolic profile of low BMD in adults using biofluid specimen via metabolomic platform. The quality assessment panel specified for the "omics"-based diagnostic research (QUADOMICS) tool was used to estimate the methodologic quality of the included studies. Ten untargeted and one targeted approach metabolomic studies investigating biomarkers in different biofluids through mass spectrometry or nuclear magnetic resonance platforms were included in the systematic review. Some metabolite panels, rather than individual metabolites, showed promising results in differentiating low BMD from normal. Candidate metabolites were of different categories including amino acids, followed by lipids and carbohydrates. Besides, certain pathways were suggested by some of the studies to be involved. This systematic review suggested that metabolic profiling could improve the diagnosis of low BMD. Despite valuable findings attained from each of these studies, there was great heterogeneity regarding the ethnicity and age of participants, samples, and the metabolomic platform. Further longitudinal studies are needed to validate the results and confirm the predictive role of metabolic profile on low BMD and fracture. It is also mandatory to address and minimize the heterogeneity in future studies by using reliable quantitative methods. Summary: Due to the metabolic nature of osteoporosis, researchers have considered metabolomic studies recently. This systematic review showed that metabolic profiling including different categories of metabolites could improve the diagnosis of low BMD. However, great heterogeneity was observed and it is mandatory to address and minimize the heterogeneity in future studies.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are paracrine factors that mediate stem cell therapeutics. We aimed at evaluating the possible therapeutic and esthetic applications of EVs prepared from the waste human facial tissue-derived orbicularis oculi muscle stem cells (OOM-SCs). OOM-SCs were isolated from the ocular tissues (from elders and youngsters) after upper eyelid blepharoplasty or epiblepharon surgeries. EVs were prepared from the OOM-SCs (OOM-SC-EVs) and their three-dimensional spheroids. OOM-SCs showed a spindle-like morphology with trilineage differentiation capacity, positive expression of CD105, CD 90, and CD73, and negative expression of CD45 and CD34, and their stem cell properties were compared with other adult mesenchymal stem cells. OOM-SC-EVs showed a high inhibitory effect on melanin synthesis in B16F10 cells by blocking tyrosinase activity. OOM-SC-EVs treatment led to a significant attenuation of senescence-associated changes, a decrease in reactive oxygen species generation, and an upregulation of antioxidant genes. We demonstrated the regeneration activity of OOM-SC-EVs in in vitro wound healing of normal human dermal fibroblasts and upregulation of anti-wrinkle-related genes and confirmed the therapeutic potential of OOM-SC-EVs in the healing of the in vivo wound model. Our study provides promising therapeutic and esthetic applications of OOM-SC-EVs, which can be obtained from the ocular surgery-derived waste human facial tissues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The pathogenesis of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) remains unclear. Metabolomic profiling of IgG4-RD patients offers an opportunity to identify novel pathophysiological targets and biomarkers. This study aims to identify potential plasma biomarkers associated with IgG4-RD. METHODS Thirty newly diagnosed IgG4-RD patients, age-matched healthy controls and post-treated IgG4-RD patients were enrolled. Patients' clinical data, laboratory parameters and plasma were collected. Plasma was measured for ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry based metabolomics and lipidomics profiling. Multivariate and univariate statistical analyses were conducted to identify potential biomarkers. The receiver operating characteristic and the correlations between biomarkers and clinical parameters were investigated. RESULTS The plasma metabolites are altered among healthy controls, newly diagnosed IgG4-RD and post-treated IgG4-RD groups. Of the identified features, eight metabolites were significantly perturbed in the IgG4-RD group, including glyceric acid 1,3-biphosphate (1,3-BPG), uridine triphosphate (UTP), uridine diphosphate glucose (UDP-Glc) or uridine diphosphate galactose (UDP-Gal), lysophospholipids, linoleic acid derivatives and ceramides. Receiver operating characteristic analysis indicated that UTP, UDP-Glc/UDP-Gal and LysoPC (18:1) had high sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis of IgG4-RD. A Pearson correlation analysis showed that 1,3-BPG and UTP were strongly correlated with clinical parameters. CONCLUSION IgG4-RD patients have a unique plasma metabolomic profile compared with healthy controls. Our study suggested that metabolomic profiling may provide important insights into pathophysiology and testable biomarkers for diagnosis of IgG4-RD.

Abstract
Lipidomics is a lipid-targeted metabolomics approach that aims to the comprehensive analysis of lipids in biological systems in order to highlight the specific functions of lipid species in health and disease. Lipids play pivotal roles as they are major structural components of the cellular membranes and energy storage molecules but also, as most recently shown, they act as functional and regulatory components of intra- and intercellular signaling. Herein, emphasis is given to the recently highlighted roles of specific bioactive lipids species, as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)-derived mediators (generally known as eicosanoids), endocannabinoids (eCBs), and lysophospholipids (LPLs), and their involvement in the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-related inflammatory scenario. Indeed, MSCs are a heterogenous population of multipotent cells that have attracted much attention for their potential in regulating inflammation, immunomodulatory capabilities, and reparative roles. The lipidomics of the inflammatory disease osteoarthritis (OA) and the influence of MSCs-derived lipids have also been addressed.

Abstract
Human mesenchymal stem cell exosomes have been shown to promote cutaneous wound healing. Their bioactivity is most often attributed to their protein and nucleic acid components, while the function of exosomal lipids remains comparatively unexplored. This work specifically assesses the involvement of lipids and the transmembrane enzyme CD73 in the exosomes' biological activity in stimulating the cutaneous wound healing process. Since exosome preparation processes are not harmonized yet, certain production and purification parameters are first systematically investigated, enabling the optimization of a standardized protocol delivering high exosome integrity, yield, and purity. An in situ enzymatic assay is introduced to specifically assess the vesicle functionality, and quantitative proteomics is employed to establish the cell culture conditions yielding a stable exosome protein profile. Using a combination of in vitro approaches, CD73 and constitutional lipids of HPV-16 E6/E7 transformed human bone marrow stromal cell-derived exosomes are identified as key bioactive components promoting the exosome-driven acceleration of processes required for wound repair. A pilot wound healing study in mice indeed suggests a role of lipids in the exosomes' biological activity. Strikingly, the extent of the bioactivity of these exosomal components is found to be dependent on the target cell type.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), such as adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and skeletal muscle-derived stem cells (MDSCs), are potential sources for cell-based therapeutic strategies. However, there is little knowledge about the lipid composition of these stem cells and the mechanisms of their differentiation. Lipids have important biological and physiological functions that are critical for understanding the regulation and control of stem cell fate. This study sought to analyze the lipidome of rabbit ADSCs and MDSCs and their adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation. The MSCs were isolated and were characterized by flow cytometry. Lipids were extracted from both MSCs and differentiated cells, and the lipids were subsequently analyzed with a hybrid triple quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The results showed a total of 1687 lipid species. MSCs exhibited different lipid profiles as well as changes in lipid composition after differentiation. Furthermore, the expression levels of N-acyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (NAPE) 54:7+NH4 (-FA 17:0(NH4)) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) 42:6+Na were higher in the adipogenic lineages in of both MSC types, and NAPE 58:2+NH4 (-FA 17:0 (NH4)) and NAPE 56:2+NH4 (-FA 17:0 (NH4)) had higher levels in the osteogenic lineages, suggesting lipid similarities in cells differentiated from different stem cell sources.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have two characteristics of interest for this paper: the ability to self-renew, and the potential for multiple-lineage differentiation into various cells. MSCs have been used in cardiac tissue regeneration for over a decade. Adult cardiac tissue regeneration ability is quite low; it cannot repair itself after injury, as the heart cells are replaced by fibroblasts and lose function. It is therefore important to search for a feasible way to repair and restore heart function through stem cell therapy. Stem cells can differentiate and provide a source of progenitor cells for cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells, and supporting cells. Studies have shown that the concentrations of blood lipids and lipoproteins affect cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, and obesity. Furthermore, the MSC lipid profiles, such as the triglyceride and cholesterol content, have been revealed by lipidomics, as well as their correlation with MSC differentiation. Abnormal blood lipids can cause serious damage to internal organs, especially heart tissue. In the past decade, the accumulated literature has indicated that lipids/lipoproteins affect stem cell behavior and biological functions, including their multiple lineage capability, and in turn affect the outcome of regenerative medicine. This review will focus on the effect of lipids/lipoproteins on MSC cardiac regenerative medicine, as well as the effect of lipid-lowering drugs in promoting cardiomyogenesis-associated MSC differentiation.

A high-throughput and untargeted lipidomics approach reveals new mechanistic insight and the effects of salvianolic acid B on the metabolic profiles in coronary heart disease rats using ultra-performance liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry. RSC Adv 2020; 10:17101-17113.

Abstract
High-throughput lipidomics provides the possibility for the development of new therapeutic drugs. Accordingly, herein, we reveal the protective role of salvianolic acid B (Sal B) in rats with coronary heart disease (CHD) and propose a new mechanism for its action through a high-throughput and non-targeted lipidomics strategy. A CHD animal model was induced by consecutive high-fat diet feeding with vitamin D3 injection. At the end of the 8th week, the serum sample was analyzed to explore the metabolic biomarker and pathway changes using untargeted lipidomics based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry (UPLC/MS). In addition, blood and heart tissue samples were collected and processed for the detection of biochemical indicators and liver histological observation. After salvianolic acid B treatment, the levels of LDH, CK, CK-MB, MYO, CTn1, TG, TC, LDL-c, and Apo(b) were significantly lower than that in the model group, while the levels of HDL-c and Apo(a1) were significantly higher than that in the model group. Furthermore, the histological features of fibrosis and steatosis were also evidently relieved in the model group. A total of twenty-six potential biomarkers were identified to express the lipid metabolic turbulence in the CHD animal models, of which twenty-two were regulated by salvianolic acid B trending to the normal state, including TG(20:0/20:4/o-18:0), PC(20:4/18:1(9Z)), PC(18:3/20:2), PA(18:0/18:2), LysoPE(18:2/0:0), SM(d18:0/22:1), PE(22:6/0:0), LysoPE (20:4/0:0), sphinganine, Cer(d18:0/18:0), PS(14:0/14:1), PC (18:0/16:0), LysoPC(17:0), PE(22:2/20:1), PC(20:3/20:4), PE(20:4/P-16:0), PS(20:3/18:0), cholesterol sulfate, TG(15:0/22:6/18:1), prostaglandin E2, arachidonic acid and sphingosine-1-phosphate. According to the metabolite enrichment and pathway analyses, the pharmacological activity of salvianolic acid B on CHD is mainly involved in three vital metabolic pathways including glycerophospholipid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism and arachidonic acid metabolism. Thus, based on the lipidomics-guided biochemical analysis of the lipid biomarkers and pathways, Sal B protects against CHD with good therapeutic effect by regulating glycerophospholipid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism and arachidonic acid metabolism, inhibiting oxidative stress damage and lipid peroxidation. High-throughput lipidomics provides the possibility for the development of new therapeutic drugs.![]()

Abstract
Adult stem cells constitute an important reservoir of self-renewing progenitor cells and are crucial for maintaining tissue and organ homeostasis. The capacity of stem cells to self-renew or differentiate can be attributed to distinct metabolic states, and it is now becoming apparent that metabolism plays instructive roles in stem cell fate decisions. Lipids are an extremely vast class of biomolecules, with essential roles in energy homeostasis, membrane structure and signaling. Imbalances in lipid homeostasis can result in lipotoxicity, cell death and diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance and diabetes, autoimmune disorders and cancer. Therefore, understanding how lipid metabolism affects stem cell behavior offers promising perspectives for the development of novel approaches to control stem cell behavior either in vitro or in patients, by modulating lipid metabolic pathways pharmacologically or through diet. In this review, we will first address how recent progress in lipidomics has created new opportunities to uncover stem-cell specific lipidomes. In addition, genetic and/or pharmacological modulation of lipid metabolism have shown the involvement of specific pathways, such as fatty acid oxidation (FAO), in regulating adult stem cell behavior. We will describe and compare findings obtained in multiple stem cell models in order to provide an assessment on whether unique lipid metabolic pathways may commonly regulate stem cell behavior. We will then review characterized and potential molecular mechanisms through which lipids can affect stem cell-specific properties, including self-renewal, differentiation potential or interaction with the niche. Finally, we aim to summarize the current knowledge of how alterations in lipid homeostasis that occur as a consequence of changes in diet, aging or disease can impact stem cells and, consequently, tissue homeostasis and repair.

Abstract
![]()
Detailed characterization
of complex biological surfaces by matrix-assisted
laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MSI)
requires instrumentation that is capable of high mass resolving power,
mass accuracy, and dynamic range. Fourier transform ion cyclotron
resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS) offers the highest mass spectral
performance for MALDI MSI experiments, and often reveals molecular
features that are unresolved on lower performance instrumentation.
Higher magnetic field strength improves all performance characteristics
of FT-ICR; mass resolving power improves linearly, while mass accuracy
and dynamic range improve quadratically with magnetic field strength.
Here, MALDI MSI at 21T is demonstrated for the first time: mass resolving
power in excess of 1 600 000 (at m/z 400), root-mean-square mass measurement accuracy below
100 ppb, and dynamic range per pixel over 500:1 were obtained from
the direct analysis of biological tissue sections. Molecular features
with m/z differences as small as
1.79 mDa were resolved and identified with high mass accuracy. These
features allow for the separation and identification of lipids to
the underlying structures of tissues. The unique molecular detail,
accuracy, sensitivity, and dynamic range combined in a 21T MALDI FT-ICR
MSI experiment enable researchers to visualize molecular structures
in complex tissues that have remained hidden until now. The instrument
described allows for future innovative, such as high-end studies to
unravel the complexity of biological, geological, and engineered organic
material surfaces with an unsurpassed detail.

Abstract
The fatty acid profile of cells in culture are unlike those of natural cells with twice the monounsaturated (MUFA) and half the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) level (Mol%). This is not due to cell lines primarily being derived from cancers but is due to limited access to lipid and an inability to make PUFA de novo as vertebrate cells. Classic culture methods use media with 10% serum (the only exogenous source of lipid). Fetal bovine serum (FBS), the serum of choice has a low level of lipid and cholesterol compared to other sera and at 10% of media provides 2-3% of the fatty acid and cholesterol, 1% of the PUFA and 0.3% of the essential fatty acid linoleic acid (18:2n-6) available to cells in the body. Since vertebrate cell lines cannot make PUFA they synthesise MUFA, offsetting their PUFA deficit and reducing their fatty acid diversity. Stem and primary cells in culture appear to be similarly affected, with a rapid loss of their natural fatty acid compositions. The unnatural lipid composition of cells in culture has substantial implications for examining natural stems cell in culture, and for investigations of cellular mechanisms using cell lines based on the pervasive influence of fats.

The lipid composition in the cell membrane and the redox balance are closely associated with the development of MDR. Liquid extraction surface analysis in combination with mass spectrometry (LESA-MS) has the characteristics of minimal sample preparation, rapid analysis, high sensitivity and high throughput, and has obtained wide applications. METHODS LESA-MS was employed to in situ determine the lipids and other specific metabolites of intact MCF-7/ADR cells (adriamycin-resistant breast cancer cells) and its parental MCF-7/S cells grown on a glass slide. In situ atomic force microscopy was used to observe the morphology of tumor cells before and after extraction. Multivariate statistical analysis was used to investigate the potential lipid biomarkers correlated with the MDR. Moreover, the cell membrane fluidity and potential were determined. RESULTS The changes in the level of the lipids were closely correlated with the multidrug resistance of MCF-7/S cells. Moreover, lower cell membrane fluidity and higher cell membrane potential were observed and thus demonstrated the changes in the cell membrane induced by multidrug resistance. Also, the ratios of GSH/GSSG, ATP/ADP and ATP/AMP were significantly higher in MCF-7/ADR cells relative to MCF-7/S cells. CONCLUSIONS Lower cell membrane fluidity and higher cell membrane potential caused by the changes in lipid compositions, enhanced anti-oxidative ability and energy generation were involved in the development of the MDR. The specific alterations identified in this study may provide more information for overcoming MDR.

Abstract
Tissue regeneration by stem cells is driven by the paracrine activity of shedding vesicles and exosomes, which deliver specific cargoes to the recipient cells. Proteins, RNA, cytokines and subsequent gene expression, orchestrate the regeneration process by improving the microenvironment to promote cell survival, controlling inflammation, repairing injury and enhancing the healing process. The action of microRNA is widely accepted as an essential driver of the regenerative process through its impact on multiple downstream biological pathways, and its ability to regulate the host immune response. Here, we present an overview of the recent potential uses of exosomes for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. We also highlight the differences in composition between shedding vesicles and exosomes that depend on the various types of stem cells from which they are derived. The conditions that affect the production of exosomes in different cell types are deliberated. This review also presents the current status of candidate exosomal microRNAs for potential therapeutic use in regenerative medicine, and in applications involving widely studied organs and tissues such as heart, lung, cartilage and bone.

Abstract
The diagnosis of osteoporosis is mainly based on clinical examination and bone mineral density assessments. The present pilot study compares the plasma lipid and polar metabolite profiles in blood plasma of 95 Singaporean-Chinese (SC) menopausal women with normal and low bone mineral density (BMD) using an untargeted metabolomic approach. The primary finding of this study was the association between lipids and femoral neck BMD in SC menopausal women. Twelve lipids were identified to be associated with low BMD by the orthogonal partial least squares (OPLS) model. Plasma concentrations of eight glycerophospholipid, glycerolipid, and sphingolipid species were significantly lower in menopausal women with low BMD but higher in two glycerophospholipid species (phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidic acid). Further, this study found no significant differences in plasma amino acid metabolites. However, trends for lower 4-aminobutyric acid, turanose, proline, aminopropionitrile, threonine, and methionine were found in women with low BMD. This pilot study identified associations between lipid metabolism and femoral neck BMD in SC women. Further studies are required on larger populations for evaluating the bone health effect of these compounds and their usefulness as clinical biomarkers for osteoporosis prediction in women.

Abstract
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are essential for the establishment of distant metastasis. Numerous studies have characterized CTCs as metastatic precursors; however, the molecular nature of CTCs has not been completely revealed yet due to the low number of CTCs in the blood stream. As an alternative approach, we developed a long-term suspension cell culture model using human breast cancer cell lines to mimic CTCs. We found that more than 40 passaged suspension cells acquired the ability to enhance metastasis like cancer stem cells. To identify molecular changes acquired during the suspension cell culture, we analyzed metabolic and lipidomic profiles as well as transcriptome in MDA-MB-468 suspension cells. Glutamate and leucine levels increased in suspension cells, and cholesterol synthesis pathway was altered. The inhibition of glutamate metabolic pathway decreased the proliferation of suspension cells compared to that of adherent cells. In the lipidomic profile, PC species containing long chain and polyunsaturated fatty acids increased in suspension cells and these species could be authentic and specific biomarkers for highly metastatic cancers. As this CTC-mimicking suspension cell culture model may easily apply to various types of cancer, we suggest this model as a great tool to develop therapeutic targets and drugs to eradicate metastatic cancer cells.

Abstract
The use of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) therapy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and T2D complications is promising; however, the investigation of MSC function in the setting of T2D has not been thoroughly explored. In our current study, we investigated the phenotype and function of MSCs in a simulated in vitro T2D environment. We show that palmitate, but not glucose, exposure impairs MSC metabolic activity with moderate increases in apoptosis, while drastically affecting proliferation and morphology. In co-culture with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), we found that MSCs not only lose their normal suppressive ability in high levels of palmitate, but actively support and enhance inflammation, resulting in elevated PBMC proliferation and pro-inflammatory cytokine release. The pro-inflammatory effect of MSCs in palmitate was partially reversed via palmitate removal and fully reversed through pre-licensing MSCs with interferon-gamma and tumor necrosis factor alpha. Thus, palmitate, a specific metabolic factor enriched within the T2D environment, is a potent modulator of MSC immunosuppressive function, which may in part explain the depressed potency observed in MSCs isolated from T2D patients. Importantly, we have also identified a robust and durable pre-licensing regimen that protects MSC immunosuppressive function in the setting of T2D.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are emerging as valuable therapeutic agents for tissue regeneration and immunomodulation, but their clinical applications have so far been limited by the technical restraints of current isolation and characterisation procedures. This study shows for the first time the successful application of Raman spectroscopy as label-free, sensitive and reproducible means of carrying out the routine bulk characterisation of MSC-derived vesicles before their use in vitro or in vivo, thus promoting the translation of EV research to clinical practice. The Raman spectra of the EVs of bone marrow and adipose tissue-derived MSCs were compared with human dermal fibroblast EVs in order to demonstrate the ability of the method to distinguish the vesicles of the three cytotypes automatically with an accuracy of 93.7%. Our data attribute a Raman fingerprint to EVs from undifferentiated and differentiated cells of diverse tissue origin, and provide insights into the biochemical characteristics of EVs from different sources and into the differential contribution of sphingomyelin, gangliosides and phosphatidilcholine to the Raman spectra themselves.

Abstract
Background The study of lipid metabolism in stem cell physiology has recently raised great interest. The role of lipids goes beyond the mere structural involvement in assembling extra- and intra-cellular compartments. Nevertheless, we are still far from understanding the impact of membrane lipidomics in stemness maintenance and differentiation patterns. In the last years, it has been reported how in vitro cell culturing can modify membrane lipidomics. The aim of the present work was to study the membrane fatty acid profile of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from human fetal membranes (hFM-MSCs) and to correlate this to specific biological properties by using chemically defined tailored lipid supplements (Refeed®). Methods Freshly isolated hFM-MSCs were characterized for their membrane fatty acid composition. hFM-MSCs were cultivated in vitro following a classical protocol and their membrane fatty acid profile at different passages was compared to the profile in vivo. A tailored Refeed® lipid supplement was developed with the aim of reducing the differences created by the in vitro cultivation and was tested on cultured hFM-MSCs. Cell morphology, viability, proliferation, angiogenic differentiation, and immunomodulatory properties after in vitro exposure to the tailored Refeed® lipid supplement were investigated. Results A significant modification of hFM-MSC membrane fatty acid composition occurred during in vitro culture. Using a tailored lipid supplement, the fatty acid composition of cultured cells remained more similar to their in vivo counterparts, being characterized by a higher polyunsaturated and omega-6 fatty acid content. These changes in membrane composition had no effect on cell morphology and viability, but were linked with increased cell proliferation rate, angiogenic differentiation, and immunomodulatory properties. In particular, Refeed®-supplemented hFM-MSCs showed greater ability to express fully functional cell membrane molecules. Conclusions Culturing hFM-MSCs alters their fatty acid composition. A tailored lipid supplement is able to improve in vitro hFM-MSC functional properties by recreating a membrane environment more similar to the physiological counterpart. This approach should be considered in cell therapy applications in order to maintain a higher cell quality during in vitro passaging and to influence the outcome of cell-based therapeutic approaches when cells are administered to patients.

Abstract
High arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) and low n-3 PUFA levels impair the capacity of cultured human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (hBMSCs) to modulate immune functions. The capacity of the hBMSCs to modify PUFA structures was found to be limited. Therefore, different PUFA supplements given to the cells resulted in very different glycerophospholipid (GPL) species profiles and substrate availability for phospholipases, which have preferences for polar head group and acyl chains when liberating PUFA precursors for production of lipid mediators. When supplemented with 20:4n-6, the cells increased prostaglandin E2 secretion. However, they elongated 20:4n-6 to the less active precursor, 22:4n-6, and also incorporated it into triacylglycerols, which may have limited the proinflammatory signaling. The n-3 PUFA precursor, 18:3n-3, had little potency to reduce the GPL 20:4n-6 content, while the eicosapentaenoic (20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic (22:6n-3) acid supplements efficiently displaced the 20:4n-6 acyls, and created diverse GPL species substrate pools allowing attenuation of inflammatory signaling. The results emphasize the importance of choosing appropriate PUFA supplements for in vitro hBMSC expansion and suggests that for optimal function they require an exogenous fatty acid source providing 20:5n-3 and 22:6n-3 sufficiently, but 20:4n-6 moderately, which calls for specifically designed optimal PUFA supplements for the cultures.

Abstract
Eggs are one of the main foods eaten worldwide. Nutritionally they are one of the main sources of dietary lipids, impacting human health. Egg yolk lipid composition changes depending on different conditions associated with hens raising. Therefore, the purpose of our work was to use a lipidomic approach as a tool to evaluate if different diets (vegetable versus animal) and raising environments (free range versus indoor) interfere in the triacylglycerol (TAG) and phospholipid (PL) profiles of eggs' yolks and to use such differences to differentiate eggs according to their origin. To achieve that goal, total lipid extracts were obtained and then fractionated by solid-phase chromatography. TAGs fraction was analysed by ESI-MS and PLs fraction by HILIC-LC-MS/MS. TAG and five PL classes were identified, namely PC, LPC, PE, LPE and SM. Fatty acids (FA) esterified to the glycerol backbone of PL ranged between C16:0 and C22:6. On the other hand, FA esterified to TAG ranged from C14:0 to C20:0. Major differences on the PL profile were observed regarding eggs from free-range hens and fed with vegetable origin food and eggs from the remaining conditions, once the former presented higher levels of PC (O-34:0), PC (34:1) and PE (34:1). Eggs from hens fed with animal origin food contained PL and TAG molecular species richer in n-6 FA, according to GC-MS and to LC-MS/MS data. The lipidomic approach used herein proved to be promising in differentiating eggs from hens with different raising conditions.
