Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) supplementation improves insulin resistance during olanzapine treatment in mice and to explore the underlying mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Insulin resistance and body weight gain were induced in mice by 10 weeks of olanzapine treatment. Simultaneously, the mice were administered GABA after 4 weeks of olanzapine administration. RESULTS We found that mice treated with olanzapine had lower GABA levels in serum and subcutaneous white adipose tissue (sWAT). GABA supplementation restored GABA levels and improved olanzapine-induced lipid metabolism disorders and insulin resistance. Chronic inflammation in adipose tissue is one of the main contributors to insulin resistance. We found that GABA supplementation inhibited olanzapine-induced adipose tissue macrophage infiltration and M1-like polarization, especially in sWAT. In vitro studies showed that stromal vascular cells, rather than adipocytes, were sensitive to GABA. Furthermore, the results suggested that GABA improves olanzapine-induced insulin resistance at least in part through a GABAB receptor-dependent pathway. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that targeting GABA may be a potential therapeutic approach for olanzapine-induced metabolic disorders.

Estrogens prevent the hypothalamus-periphery crosstalk induced by olanzapine intraperitoneal treatment in female mice: Effects on brown/beige adipose tissues and liver. Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2024; 1870:167227. [PMID: 38733774 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2024.167227] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
Olanzapine (OLA) is a highly obesogenic second-generation antipsychotic (SGA). Recently we demonstrated that, contrarily to OLA oral treatment, intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration resulted in weight loss and absence of hepatic steatosis in wild-type (WT) and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B)-deficient (KO) male mice. This protection relied on two central-peripheral axes connecting hypothalamic AMPK with brown/inguinal white adipose tissue (BAT/iWAT) uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) and hypothalamic JNK with hepatic fatty acid synthase (FAS). Herein, we addressed OLA i.p. treatment effects in WT and PTP1B-KO female mice. Contrarily to our previous results in WT females receiving OLA orally, the i.p. treatment did not induce weight gain or hyperphagia. Molecularly, in females OLA failed to diminish hypothalamic phospho-AMPK or elevate BAT UCP-1 and energy expenditure (EE) despite the preservation of iWAT browning. Conversely, OLA i.p. treatment in ovariectomized mice reduced hypothalamic phospho-AMPK, increased BAT/iWAT UCP-1 and EE, and induced weight loss as occurred in males. Pretreatment of hypothalamic neurons with 17β-estradiol (E2) abolished OLA effects on AMPK. Moreover, neither hypothalamic JNK activation nor hepatic FAS upregulation were found in WT and PTP1B-KO females receiving OLA via i.p. Importantly, this axis was reestablished upon ovariectomy. In this line, E2 prevented OLA-induced phospho-JNK in hypothalamic neurons. These results support the role of estrogens in sex-related dimorphism in OLA treatment. This study evidenced the benefit of OLA i.p. administration in preventing its obesogenic effects in female mice that could offer clinical value.

Abstract
Olanzapine, a widely prescribed atypical antipsychotic, poses a great risk to the patient's health by fabricating a plethora of severe metabolic and cardiovascular adverse effects eventually reducing life expectancy and patient compliance. Its heterogenous receptor binding profile has made it difficult to point out a specific cause or treatment for the related side effects. Growing body of evidence suggest that transient receptor potential (TRP) channel subfamily Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) has pivotal role in pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and obesity. With this background, we aimed to investigate the role of pharmacological manipulations of TRPA1 channels in antipsychotic (olanzapine)-induced metabolic alterations in female mice using allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) and HC-030031 (TRPA1 agonist and antagonist, respectively). It was found that after 6 weeks of treatment, AITC prevented olanzapine-induced alterations in body weight and adiposity; serum, and liver inflammatory markers; glucose and lipid metabolism; and hypothalamic appetite regulation, nutrient sensing, inflammatory and TRPA1 channel signaling regulating genes. Furthermore, several of these effects were absent in the presence of HC-030031 (TRPA1 antagonist) indicating protective role of TRPA1 agonism in attenuating olanzapine-induced metabolic alterations. Supplementary in-depth studies are required to study TRPA1 channel effect on other aspects of olanzapine-induced metabolic alterations.

Abstract
Schizophrenia, affecting approximately 1% of the global population, is often treated with olanzapine. Despite its efficacy, olanzapine's prolonged use has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism and is involved in NAFLD pathogenesis via an unknown mechanism. This study aims to investigate the role of PCSK9 in olanzapine-induced NAFLD. C57BL/6J mice and HepG2 and AML12 cell lines were treated with varying concentrations of olanzapine to examine the effects of olanzapine on PCSK9 and lipid metabolism. PCSK9 levels were manipulated using recombinant proteins, plasmids, and small interfering RNAs in vitro, and the effects on hepatic lipid accumulation and gene expression related to lipid metabolism were assessed. Olanzapine treatment significantly increased PCSK9 levels in both animal and cell line models, correlating with elevated lipid accumulation. PCSK9 manipulation demonstrated its central role in mediating hepatic steatosis through both receptor-dependent pathways (impacting NPC1L1) and receptor-independent pathways (affecting lipid synthesis, uptake, and cholesterol biosynthesis). Interestingly, upregulation of SREBP-1c, rather than SREBP-2, was identified as a key driver of PCSK9 increase in olanzapine-induced NAFLD. Our findings establish PCSK9 as a pivotal factor in olanzapine-induced NAFLD, influencing both receptor-related and metabolic pathways. This highlights PCSK9 inhibitors as potential therapeutic agents for managing NAFLD in schizophrenia patients treated with olanzapine.

Abstract
Olanzapine (OLA), a widely used second-generation antipsychotic (SGA), causes weight gain and metabolic alterations when administered orally to patients. Recently, we demonstrated that, contrarily to the oral treatment which induces weight gain, OLA administered via intraperitoneal (i.p.) in male mice resulted in body weight loss. This protection was due to an increase in energy expenditure (EE) through a mechanism involving the modulation of hypothalamic AMPK activation by higher OLA levels reaching this brain region compared to those of the oral treatment. Since clinical studies have shown hepatic steatosis upon chronic treatment with OLA, herein we further investigated the role of the hypothalamus-liver interactome upon OLA administration in wild-type (WT) and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B knockout (PTP1B-KO) mice, a preclinical model protected against metabolic syndrome. WT and PTP1B-KO male mice were fed an OLA-supplemented diet or treated via i.p. Mechanistically, we found that OLA i.p. treatment induces mild oxidative stress and inflammation in the hypothalamus in a JNK1-independent and dependent manner, respectively, without features of cell dead. Hypothalamic JNK activation up-regulated lipogenic gene expression in the liver though the vagus nerve. This effect concurred with an unexpected metabolic rewiring in the liver in which ATP depletion resulted in increased AMPK/ACC phosphorylation. This starvation-like signature prevented steatosis. By contrast, intrahepatic lipid accumulation was observed in WT mice treated orally with OLA; this effect being absent in PTP1B-KO mice. We also demonstrated an additional benefit of PTP1B inhibition against hypothalamic JNK activation, oxidative stress and inflammation induced by chronic OLA i.p. treatment, thereby preventing hepatic lipogenesis. The protection conferred by PTP1B deficiency against hepatic steatosis in the oral OLA treatment or against oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in the i.p. treatment strongly suggests that targeting PTP1B might be also a therapeutic strategy to prevent metabolic comorbidities in patients under OLA treatment in a personalized manner.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Studies have revealed a high prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) among adult patients with mental disorders, as well as its associate risk factors, however little is known about these in pediatric population. The aim of the present study is to investigate the prevalence of NAFLD in pediatric inpatients with mental disorder, as well as to explore the risk factors. METHODS In this retrospective study, we included 1156 pediatric inpatients with mental disorder admitted to our hospital between January 2020 and December 2021, including inpatients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depressive disorder and other mental disorders. Relevant clinical data were obtained from the electronic medical records. We calculated the prevalence rate of NAFLD, and compared NAFLD prevalence between gender, mental disorders types, antipsychotics use, and comorbidities. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine risk factors associated with NAFLD. RESULTS The prevalence of NAFLD in pediatric inpatients with mental disorders was 7.35% (85/1156). Patients with NAFLD had senior age than those without NAFLD (15.33±1.75 vs 14.21±1.95 year-old, P<0.001). The NAFLD prevalence in participants with schizophrenia (12.11%) was higher than in participants with bipolar disorder (8.45%), depressive disorder (7.06%) and other mental disorders (2.97%)(p=0.002). The NAFLD prevalence was higher in participants who used antipsychotics (8.70%) than those who didn't (5.45%) (p=0.038). Multivariate analysis revealed that senior age, body weight (overweight/obese) and dyslipidemia were independent risk factors for NAFLD in pediatric inpatients with mental disorders. CONCLUSIONS The NAFLD prevalence was is higher in those patients with schizophrenia and receiving antipsychotic medication. Metabolic factors and longer evolution may explain these differences.

Abstract
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a serious neurological disorder which is related to liver dysfunction. HE was induced by thioacetamide (TAA) injection (350 mg kg-1, i.p.) for 3 consecutive days. This study was performed to investigate the prophylactic impact of naringenin against TAA-induced HE. Naringenin (100 mg kg-1) was orally administered for 7 days starting 4 days prior to TAA injection. Naringenin effectively mitigated TAA-induced behavioural, structural and functional alterations. Naringenin ameliorated TAA-induced cognitive impairment as evidenced by the increase in the fall-off time in the rotarod test, decrease in the escape latency in the Morris water maze test and increase in the time spent in the center and in the number of rearing in the open field test. Additionally, naringenin significantly decreased the serum levels of transaminases, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, bile and ammonia. Moreover, naringenin succeeded in reducing the levels of hepatic and cerebral c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) as well as hepatic SORT1 levels. In addition, naringenin successfully elevated the levels of hepatic and cerebral pro-brain-derived neurotrophic factor (pro-BDNF) and BDNF in addition to the cerebral SORT1 level. Finally, naringenin markedly decreased the expression of Bax and caspase-8 as presented by the immunohistochemical results. Collectively, the ameliorative effect of naringenin on the development of HE might be attributed to the modulation of the JNK/Bax/caspase-8 apoptotic pathway.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Metabolic-associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD) is a term for Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) that highlights its association with components of the Metabolic Syndrome (MetS). MAFLD is becoming a clinically significant problem due to its increasing role in the pathogenesis of cryptogenic cirrhosis of the liver.
Material and methods: The resulting work is a review of the most important information on the risk of MAFLD development in the context of the use of particular groups of psychotropic drugs. The study presents the epidemiology, with particular emphasis on the population of psychiatric patients, pathophysiology and scientific reports analyzing the effect of the psychotropic medications on MAFLD development.
Results: The drugs that can have the greatest impact on the development of MAFLD are atypical antipsychotics, especially olanzapine, and mood stabilizers (MS) - valproic acid (VPA). Their effect is indirect, mainly through dysregulation of organism’s carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
Conclusions: The population of psychiatric patients is particularly vulnerable to the development of MAFLD. At the root of this disorder lies the specificity of mental disorders, improper dietary habits, low level of physical activity and tendency to addictions. Also, the negative impact of the psychotropic drugs on the systemic metabolism indirectly contributes to the development of MAFLD. In order to prevent fatty liver disease, it is necessary to monitor metabolic and liver parameters regularly, and patients should be screened by ultrasound examination of the liver. There are also important preventive actions from the medical professionals, including education of patients and sensitizing to healthy lifestyle.

Abstract
Long-term use of olanzapine, an antipsychotic drug, induces hypertriglyceridemia, resulting in a higher risk of cardiovascular disease. However, the effects and underlying mechanisms of short-term use of olanzapine on circulating triglyceride levels remain poorly understood. Here, the role of apolipoprotein A5 (apoA5), a regulator of triglyceride metabolism, was investigated in olanzapine-induced hypertriglyceridemia. Our multi-center clinical study recruited 36 schizophrenia patients who received short-term (8 weeks) of olanzapine. Besides, female C57BL/6J mice were treated with olanzapine (3 mg/kg/day versus 6 mg/kg/day) for 6 weeks. We demonstrated that short-term use of olanzapine increased plasma triglyceride and decreased plasma apoA5 levels in the patients and mice, with a negative correlation between the two factors. However, no obesity was observed in the patients and mice. Interestingly, olanzapine increased hepatic apoA5 protein in the mice, without significant changes in hepatic Apoa5 mRNA. Consistently, in vitro studies indicated that olanzapine increased medium triglyceride levels and decreased medium apoA5 levels in a dose-dependent manner in human HepG2 cells and primary mouse hepatocytes. Whereas the olanzapine treatment increased hepatic apoA5 protein in vitro, without effects on hepatic APOA5 mRNA. Of note, olanzapine increased the co-localization between apoA5 protein and accumulated lipid droplets in hepatocytes, as opposed to at the hepatocellular plasma membrane, in mouse liver as demonstrated by fluorescence staining. Therefore, our study indicated that short-term use of olanzapine induced hypertriglyceridemia due to defects of sorting and secretion of hepatic apoA5.

Interactions between Tryptophan Metabolism, the Gut Microbiome and the Immune System as Potential Drivers of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and Metabolic Diseases. Metabolites 2022; 12:metabo12060514. [PMID: 35736447 PMCID: PMC9227929 DOI: 10.3390/metabo12060514] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2022] [Revised: 05/30/2022] [Accepted: 05/31/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasing and therefore is its burden of disease as NALFD is a risk factor for cirrhosis and is associated with other metabolic conditions such as type II diabetes, obesity, dyslipidaemia and atherosclerosis. Linking these cardiometabolic diseases is a state of low-grade inflammation, with higher cytokines and c-reactive protein levels found in individuals with NAFLD, obesity and type II diabetes. A possible therapeutic target to decrease this state of low-grade inflammation is the metabolism of the essential amino-acid tryptophan. Its three main metabolic pathways (kynurenine pathway, indole pathway and serotonin/melatonin pathway) result in metabolites such as kynurenic acid, xanturenic acid, indole-3-propionic acid and serotonin/melatonin. The kynurenine pathway is regulated by indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), an enzyme that is upregulated by pro-inflammatory molecules such as INF, IL-6 and LPS. Higher activity of IDO is associated with increased inflammation and fibrosis in NAFLD, as well with increased glucose levels, obesity and atherosclerosis. On the other hand, increased concentrations of the indole pathway metabolites, regulated by the gut microbiome, seem to result in more favorable outcomes. This narrative review summarizes the interactions between tryptophan metabolism, the gut microbiome and the immune system as potential drivers of cardiometabolic diseases in NAFLD.

Abstract
Atypical antipsychotic (AA) medications are widely prescribed for the treatment of psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and treatment-resistant depression. AA are associated with myriad metabolic and endocrine side effects, including systemic inflammation, weight gain, dyslipidemia and insulin resistance, all of which are associated with increased incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is highly prevalent in patients with mental illness, and AA have been shown to increase incidence of NAFLD pre-clinically and clinically. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been described. We mined multi-omic datasets from preclinical murine models of sub-chronic risperidone or olanzapine treatment, in vitro exposure of human cells to risperidone and psychiatric patients following onset of aripiprazole therapy focused on pathways associated with the pathophysiology of NAFLD, including iron accumulation, systemic inflammation and dyslipidemia. We identified numerous differentially expressed traits affecting these pathways conserved across study systems and AA medications. We used these findings to propose mechanisms for AA-associated development of NAFLD and dysregulated iron homeostasis.

Abstract
Studies have confirmed that olanzapine, the mainstay treatment for schizophrenia, triggers metabolic diseases, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the etiology of olanzapine-induced NAFLD is poorly understood. Proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is involved in NAFLD pathogenesis, and metformin can significantly decrease circulating PCSK9. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of PCSK9 and explore the therapeutic effect of metformin for olanzapine-associated NAFLD. Olanzapine significantly upregulated PCSK9 and promoted lipid accumulation in mouse livers and HepG2 and AML12 cells. Metformin ameliorated these pathological alterations. PCSK9 upstream regulator liver X receptor α (LXRα) was significantly upregulated in olanzapine-induced NAFLD. LXRα antagonist treatment and LXRα overexpression resulted in a decrease and increase of PCSK9, respectively. Hepatic lipogenesis-associated genes FAS and SCD1 were significantly upregulated in olanzapine-induced NAFLD mice and HepG2 cells overexpressing PCSK9, and genes related to lipid β-oxidation (SCAD and PPARα) were downregulated, while metformin reversed these changes. In addition, we found that LXRα overexpression compromised the effect of metformin on PCSK9 levels and intracellular lipid droplet formation. Taken together, our findings suggest that olanzapine enhances hepatic PCSK9 expression by upregulating LXRα, thereby increasing FAS and SCD1 expression as well as decreasing SCAD and PPARα, and promoting lipid accumulation, and, subsequently, NAFLD, which is ameliorated by metformin.

Abstract
Background Sortilin 1 (SORT1) has been reported as an oncogene in several human tumors. Nonetheless, the biological functions of SORT1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain poorly understood. Methods Western blotting was employed for the determination of protein expression. Hepatocellular carcinoma cell viability, apoptosis, migration, and invasion were measured via CCK-8, flow cytometry, wound healing, and Transwell assays. Results Sortilin 1 was upregulated in HCC and closely associated with unsatisfactory outcomes of HCC patients. Furthermore, in vitro and in vivo assays revealed that SORT1 knockdown significantly diminished HCC cell proliferation and metastasis but accelerated HCC cell apoptosis; moreover, SORT1 depletion also restrained the growth of xenografted HCC tumors. Mechanistically, SORT1 activated PI3K/AKT signaling in HCC cells, thereby promoting the malignant behaviors of HCC cells. Conclusion This study demonstrated that SORT1 might promote HCC progression by activating PI3K/AKT signaling, indicating that SORT1 might be a promising target and biomarker for HCC treatment and prognosis.
