Abstract
Background Acne vulgaris (AV), a chronic inflammatory pilosebaceous disorder, affects 80-90% of teenagers. This study aimed to discover lipid profiles and biomarkers of the rabbit ear acne model, and investigate the mechanism of isotretinoin in treating acne at the lipid level. Methods Untargeted lipidomic analysis using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography system (UHPLC) coupled to q-extraction plus was performed to identify skin lipid metabolites in blank control (groups C), model group (group M) and isotretinoin group (group T). Multivariate statistical analysis was used to process the lipidomics data. Results A total of 43 lipid classes comprising 6989 lipid species were identified from the mass spectrometry data. The orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) model demonstrated significant separation in skin lipidomic profiles between group M and group C. With variable influence on projection (VIP) > 1.0 and P-value < 0.05, 299 significantly different lipid metabolites were identified. These lipid metabolites consisted mainly of ceramides (Cer) (53.85%), phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) (9.03%), phosphatidylcholines (PC)(5.35%), and sphingomyelin (SM)(4.01%). Combining with AUC ≥ 0.9 as the elected criteria, Cer (d18;1_24:0), zymosterol (ZyE)(33:5), Cer (t43:1), ZyE (33:6), ZyE (24:7), and ZyE (35:6) have "high" accuracy. Isotretinoin treatment normalized 25 lipid metabolites in the acne model. Conclusion Our findings provide new insights into the role of lipid metabolism in the pathogenesis of acne and the action mechanism of isotretinoin.

Longitudinal integrative cell-free DNA analysis in gestational diabetes mellitus. Cell Rep Med 2024; 5:101660. [PMID: 39059385 PMCID: PMC11384941 DOI: 10.1016/j.xcrm.2024.101660] [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: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024]
Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) presents varied manifestations throughout pregnancy and poses a complex clinical challenge. High-depth cell-free DNA (cfDNA) sequencing analysis holds promise in advancing our understanding of GDM pathogenesis and prediction. In 299 women with GDM and 299 matched healthy pregnant women, distinct cfDNA fragment characteristics associated with GDM are identified throughout pregnancy. Integrating cfDNA profiles with lipidomic and single-cell transcriptomic data elucidates functional changes linked to altered lipid metabolism processes in GDM. Transcription start site (TSS) scores in 50 feature genes are used as the cfDNA signature to distinguish GDM cases from controls effectively. Notably, differential coverage of the islet acinar marker gene PRSS1 emerges as a valuable biomarker for GDM. A specialized neural network model is developed, predicting GDM occurrence and validated across two independent cohorts. This research underscores the high-depth cfDNA early prediction and characterization of GDM, offering insights into its molecular underpinnings and potential clinical applications.

Abstract
Atopic dermatitis and psoriasis are common chronic inflammatory diseases of high incidence that share some clinical features, including symptoms of pruritus and pain, scaly lesions, and histologically, acanthosis and hyperkeratosis. Meanwhile, they are both commonly comorbid with metabolic disorders such as obesity and diabetes, indicating that both diseases may exist with significant metabolic disturbances. Metabolomics reveals that both atopic dermatitis and psoriasis have abnormalities in a variety of metabolites, including lipids, amino acids, and glucose. Meanwhile, recent studies have highlighted the importance of the microbiome and its metabolites in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. Metabolic alterations and microbiome dysbiosis can also affect the immune, inflammatory, and epidermal barrier, thereby influencing the development of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. Focusing on the metabolic and microbiome levels, this review is devoted to elaborating the similarities and differences between atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, thus providing insights into the intricate relationship between both conditions.

Abstract
γδT17 cells are a subset of γδT cells producing IL-17, which is crucial for protection against bacterial and fungal infections. It has recently been shown that γδT17 cells have enriched lipid storage and lipid metabolism. However, the regulation of γδT17 cell function and differentiation with respect to lipids remains unknown. Here, we report that PRDM16 is a critical regulator of γδT17 cell differentiation, controlling type 17 immunity gene expression program and lipid-dependent cell fitness. We demonstrated that γδT17 cells have higher lipid-dependent cell fitness, which is negatively correlated with the expression of Prdm16. Loss of Prdm16 enhances the function and differentiation of γδT17 cells, and increases their fitness in lipid-rich environments. Specifically, loss of Prdm16 exacerbates development of psoriasis in the skin, a lipid-rich organ, and Prdm16 controls lipid-mediated differentiation of Vγ4+ γδT17 cells, which are the major source of IL-17 during the onset of psoriasis. Our study highlights the potential impact of PRDM16 on lipid-dependent fitness and protective immune function of γδT cells and also on the immunotherapy of psoriasis and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a common, chronic, and inflammatory skin disease with a high burden on individuals, health systems, and society worldwide. With the immunological pathologies and pathogenesis of psoriasis becoming gradually revealed, the therapeutic approaches for this disease have gained revolutionary progress. Nevertheless, the mechanisms of less common forms of psoriasis remain elusive. Furthermore, severe adverse effects and the recurrence of disease upon treatment cessation should be noted and addressed during the treatment, which, however, has been rarely explored with the integration of preliminary findings. Therefore, it is crucial to have a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms behind psoriasis pathogenesis, which might offer new insights for research and lead to more substantive progress in therapeutic approaches and expand clinical options for psoriasis treatment. In this review, we looked to briefly introduce the epidemiology, clinical subtypes, pathophysiology, and comorbidities of psoriasis and systematically discuss the signaling pathways involving extracellular cytokines and intracellular transmission, as well as the cross-talk between them. In the discussion, we also paid more attention to the potential metabolic and epigenetic mechanisms of psoriasis and the molecular mechanistic cascades related to its comorbidities. This review also outlined current treatment for psoriasis, especially targeted therapies and novel therapeutic strategies, as well as the potential mechanism of disease recurrence.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a long-lasting skin condition characterized by redness and thick silver scales on the skin's surface. It involves various skin cells, including keratinocytes, dendritic cells, T lymphocytes, and neutrophils. The treatments for psoriasis range from topical to systemic therapies, but they only alleviate the symptoms and do not provide a fundamental cure. Moreover, systemic treatments have the disadvantage of suppressing the entire body's immune system. Therefore, a new treatment strategy with minimal impact on the immune system is required. Recent studies have shown that sphingolipid metabolites, particularly ceramide and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), play a significant role in psoriasis. Specific S1P-S1P-receptor (S1PR) signaling pathways have been identified as crucial to psoriasis inflammation. Based on these findings, S1PR modulators have been investigated and have been found to improve psoriasis inflammation. This review will discuss the metabolic pathways of sphingolipids, the individual functions of these metabolites, and their potential as a new therapeutic approach to psoriasis.
