Abstract
Macrophage cholesterol homeostasis is crucial for health and disease and has been linked to the lipid-peroxidizing enzyme arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase type B (ALOX15B), albeit molecular mechanisms remain obscure. We performed global transcriptome and immunofluorescence analysis in ALOX15B-silenced primary human macrophages and observed a reduction of nuclear sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) 2, the master transcription factor of cellular cholesterol biosynthesis. Consequently, SREBP2-target gene expression was reduced as were the sterol biosynthetic intermediates desmosterol and lathosterol as well as 25- and 27-hydroxycholesterol. Mechanistically, suppression of ALOX15B reduced lipid peroxidation in primary human macrophages and thereby attenuated activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase ERK1/2, which lowered SREBP2 abundance and activity. Low nuclear SREBP2 rendered both, ALOX15B-silenced and ERK1/2-inhibited macrophages refractory to SREBP2 activation upon blocking the NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1. These studies suggest a regulatory mechanism controlling macrophage cholesterol homeostasis based on ALOX15B-mediated lipid peroxidation and concomitant ERK1/2 activation.

[PMID: 38697517 DOI: 10.1016/j.plipres.2024.101276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 04/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024]
Abstract
Oxylipins are potent lipid mediators with increasing interest in clinical research. They are usually measured in systemic circulation and can provide a wealth of information regarding key biological processes such as inflammation, vascular tone, or blood coagulation. Although procedures still require harmonization to generate comparable oxylipin datasets, performing comprehensive profiling of circulating oxylipins in large studies is feasible and no longer restricted by technical barriers. However, it is essential to improve and facilitate the biological interpretation of complex oxylipin profiles to truly leverage their potential in clinical research. This requires regular updating of our knowledge about the metabolism and the mode of action of oxylipins, and consideration of all factors that may influence circulating oxylipin profiles independently of the studied disease or condition. This review aims to provide the readers with updated and necessary information regarding oxylipin metabolism, their different forms in systemic circulation, the current limitations in deducing oxylipin cellular effects from in vitro bioactivity studies, the biological and technical confounding factors needed to consider for a proper interpretation of oxylipin profiles.

Abstract
Several oxylipins are potent lipid mediators and are discussed to be absorbed after oral intake. However, information about their concentrations in oils and processed foods are scarce. Here, we analyzed the concentrations of mono-, di- and multihydroxy- as well as epoxy-PUFA in virgin and refined oils as well as in different foods/meals. Oil refining causes hydrolysis of epoxy-PUFA and thus high dihydroxy-PUFA concentrations (e.g. 15,16-DiHODE 290 µg/g in refined vs. 15 µg/g in virgin rapeseed oil), making the epoxy-to-diol ratio a potential marker for refined oils. Low oxylipin levels were found in foods with high amounts of saturated fatty acids such as Hamburger patties (around 30 µg/g). High concentrations (up to 1200 µg/g, 80 mg per serving) and high oxylipin/precursor-PUFA ratios were found in fried falafel and processed foods such as vegetarian sausage/fish fingers. Our study provides first insights in the oxylipin concentrations of our daily food, indicating a relevant intake.

Abstract
Lipids are a diverse class of molecules involved in many biological functions including cell signaling or cell membrane assembly. Owing to this relevance, LC-MS/MS-based lipidomics emerged as a major field in modern analytical chemistry. Here, we thoroughly characterized the influence of MS and LC settings - of a Q Exactive HF operated in Full MS/data-dependent MS2 TOP N acquisition mode - in order to optimize the semi-quantification of polar lipids. Optimization of MS-source settings improved the signal intensity by factor 3 compared to default settings. Polar lipids were separated on an ACQUITY Premier CSH C18 reversed-phase column (100 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 µm, 130 Å) during an elution window of 28 min, leading to a sufficient number of both data points across the chromatographic peaks, as well as MS2 spectra. Analysis was carried out in positive and negative ionization mode enabling the detection of a broader spectrum of lipids and to support the structural characterization of lipids. Optimal sample preparation of biological samples was achieved by liquid-liquid extraction using MeOH/MTBE resulting in an excellent extraction recovery > 85% with an intra-day and inter-day variability < 15%. The optimized method was applied on the investigation of changes in the phospholipid pattern in plasma from human subjects supplemented with n3-PUFA (20:5 and 22:6). The strongest increase was observed for lipids bearing 20:5, while 22:4 bearing lipids were lowered. Specifically, LPC 20:5_0:0 and PC 16:0_20:5 were found to be strongest elevated, while PE 18:0_22:4 and PC 18:2_18:2 were decreased by n3-PUFA supplementation. These results were confirmed by targeted LC-MS/MS using commercially available phospholipids as standards.

Abstract
The research aimed to establish a multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae-induced genetic model for mastitis considering the alternative mechanisms of the DjlA-mediated CbpA protein regulation. The Whole Genome Sequencing of the newly isolated K. pneumoniae strain was conducted to annotate the frequently occurring antibiotic resistance and virulence factors following PCR and MALDI-TOF mass-spectrophotometry. Co-chaperon DjlA was identified and extracted via restriction digestion on PAGE. Based on the molecular string property analysis of different DnaJ and DnaK type genes, CbpA was identified to be regulated most by the DjlA protein during mastitis. Based on the quantum tunnel-cluster profiles, CbpA was modeled as a novel target for diversified biosynthetic, and chemosynthetic compounds. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses were conducted to determine the maximal point-specificity of selective flavonoids in complexing with the CbpA macromolecule at molecular docking. The molecular dynamic simulation (100 ns) of each of the flavonoid-protein complexes was studied regarding the parameters RMSD, RMSF, Rg, SASA, MMGBSA, and intramolecular hydrogen bonds; where all of them resulted significantly. To ratify all the molecular dynamic simulation outputs, the potential stability of the flavonoids in complexing with CbpA can be remarked as Quercetin > Biochanin A > Kaempherol > Myricetin, which were all significant in comparison to the control Galangin. Finally, a comprehensive drug-gene interaction pathway for each of the flavonoids was developed to determine the simultaneous and quantitative-synergistic effects of different operons belonging to the DnaJ-type proteins on the metabolism of the tested pharmacophores in CbpA. Considering all the in vitro and in silico parameters, DjlA-mediated CbpA can be a novel target for the tested flavonoids as the potential therapeutics of mastitis as futuristic drugs.

Abstract
Deep-frying of food is a common cooking technique causing thermal oxidation of fatty acids (FA). Here, we investigated for the first time the formation of hydroxy-, epoxy- and dihydroxy-FA derived from oleic, linoleic (LA), and α-linolenic acid (ALA) during frying. Potato chips were fried in high-oleic sunflower oil for 4 × 5 cycles on 2 days, and the oil was comprehensively analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. During frying, the E,Z-9- and E,Z-13-hydroperoxy-LA and -ALA concentrations decrease while their corresponding hydroxy-FA remain constant. The concentrations of both E,E-9-/13-hydroperoxy-LA and E,E-9-/13-hydroxy-LA increase with the frying cycles, which is also found for the concentration of trans-epoxy-FA. The increase in trans-epoxy-FA is more pronounced than that of the corresponding cis-epoxy-FA, exceeding their concentrations on the second day of frying. This selective change in the cis-/trans-epoxy-FA ratio is also observed for their hydrolysis products: concentrations of erythro-dihydroxy-FA, derived from trans-epoxy-FA, increase during frying stronger than threo-dihydroxy-FA derived from cis-epoxy-FA. Based on these data, we suggest that the ratio of E,E-/E,Z-hydroxy-FA, in combination with the cis-/trans-epoxy-FA ratio, as well as the threo-/erythro-dihydroxy-FA ratio are promising new parameters to evaluate the heating of edible oils and to characterize the status of frying oils.

Abstract
Oxysterols play a key role in many (patho)physiological processes and they are potential biomarkers for oxidative stress in several diseases. Here we developed a rapid gas chromatographic-mass spectrometry-based method for the separation and quantification of 11 biologically relevant oxysterols bearing hydroxy, epoxy, and dihydroxy groups. Efficient chromatographic separation (resolution ≥ 1.9) was achieved using a medium polarity 35%-diphenyl/65%-dimethyl polysiloxane stationary phase material (30 m × 0.25 mm inner diameter and 0.25 μm film thickness). Based on thorough analysis of the fragmentation during electron ionization we developed a strategy to deduce structural information of the oxysterols. Optimized sample preparation includes (i) extraction with a mixture of n-hexane/iso-propanol, (ii) removal of cholesterol by solid phase extraction with unmodified silica, and (iii) trimethylsilylation. The method was successfully applied on the analysis of brain samples, showing consistent results with previous studies and a good intra- and interday precision of ≤20%. Finally, we used the method for the investigation of oxysterol formation during oxidative stress in HepG2 cells. Incubation with tert-butyl hydroperoxide led to a massive increase in free radical formed oxysterols (7-keto-chol > 7β-OH-chol >> 7α-OH-chol), while 24 h incubation with the glutathione peroxidase 4 inhibitor RSL3 showed no increase in oxidative stress based on the oxysterol pattern. Overall, the new method described here enables the robust analysis of a biologically meaningful pattern of oxysterols with high sensitivity and precision allowing us to gain new insights in the biological formation and role of oxysterols.

Abstract
Oxylipins are oxygenated metabolites of fatty acids that share several similar biochemical characteristics and functions to fatty acids including transport and trafficking. Oxylipins are most commonly measured in the non-esterified form which can be found in plasma, free or bound to albumin. The non-esterified form, however, reflects only one of the possible pools of oxylipins and is by far the least abundant circulating form of oxylipins. Further, this fraction cannot reliably be extrapolated to the other, more abundant, esterified pool. In cells too, esterified oxylipins are the most abundant form, but are seldom measured and their potential roles in signaling are not well established. In this review, we examine the current literature on experimental oxylipin measurements to describe the lack in reporting the esterified oxylipin pool. We outline the metabolic and experimental importance of esterified oxylipins using well established roles of fatty acid trafficking in non-esterified fatty acids and in esterified form as components of circulating lipoproteins. Finally, we use mathematical modeling to simulate how exchange between cellular esterified and unesterified pools would affect intracellular signaling.. The explicit inclusion of esterified oxylipins along with the non-esterified pool has the potential to convey a more complete assessment of the metabolic consequences of oxylipin trafficking.

Abstract
Enzymatic and nonenzymatic oxidation of linoleic (LA) and α-linolenic acid (ALA) during pressing and storage of plant oils leads to a variety of oxylipins. We pressed oils from flaxseeds, rapeseeds, and sunflower seeds and analyzed the oxylipin pattern in freshly pressed oils. 9-/13-Hydro(pero)xy-LA/-ALA occurred in high concentration resulting probably from lipoxygenase-catalyzed reactions as well as autoxidation and photooxidation. However, in flaxseed and rapeseed oil, the highest concentrations were found for the terminal epoxy-ALA (15(16)-EpODE) and the hardly known 15-hydroxy-LA (15-HODE, 80 mg/100 g in flaxseed oil). Oils were stored for 6 months and the peroxide value (PV) as well as oxylipin and secondary volatile aldehyde concentrations were determined. While lipid peroxidation in flaxseed oil was surprisingly low, the oxylipin concentration and PV massively increased in rapeseed oil dependent on oxygen availability. Oxylipin concentrations correlated well with the PV, while secondary volatile aldehydes did not reflect the changes of oxylipins and PVs. The comprehensive analysis of hydroxy-, epoxy-, and dihydroxy-LA/-ALA reveals new and unique insights into the composition of plant oils and ongoing oxidation processes.

The Plasma Oxylipin Signature Provides a Deep Phenotyping of Metabolic Syndrome Complementary to the Clinical Criteria. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231911688.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex condition encompassing a constellation of cardiometabolic abnormalities. Oxylipins are a superfamily of lipid mediators regulating many cardiometabolic functions. Plasma oxylipin signature could provide a new clinical tool to enhance the phenotyping of MetS pathophysiology. A high-throughput validated mass spectrometry method, allowing for the quantitative profiling of over 130 oxylipins, was applied to identify and validate the oxylipin signature of MetS in two independent nested case/control studies involving 476 participants. We identified an oxylipin signature of MetS (coined OxyScore), including 23 oxylipins and having high performances in classification and replicability (cross-validated AUCROC of 89%, 95% CI: 85–93% and 78%, 95% CI: 72–85% in the Discovery and Replication studies, respectively). Correlation analysis and comparison with a classification model incorporating the MetS criteria showed that the oxylipin signature brings consistent and complementary information to the clinical criteria. Being linked with the regulation of various biological processes, the candidate oxylipins provide an integrative phenotyping of MetS regarding the activation and/or negative feedback regulation of crucial molecular pathways. This may help identify patients at higher risk of cardiometabolic diseases. The oxylipin signature of patients with metabolic syndrome enhances MetS phenotyping and may ultimately help to better stratify the risk of cardiometabolic diseases.

[PMID: 35550873 PMCID: PMC9353974 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2022.103875] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2021] [Revised: 05/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/04/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Chronic exposure to traffic-related air pollution (TRAP) is known to promote systemic inflammation, which is thought to underlie respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic and neurological disorders. It is not known whether chronic TRAP exposure dampens inflammation resolution, the homeostatic process for stopping inflammation and repairing damaged cells. In vivo, inflammation resolution is facilitated by bioactive lipid mediators known as oxylipins, which are derived from the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. To understand the effects of chronic TRAP exposure on lipid-mediated inflammation resolution pathways, we measured total (i.e. free+bound) pro-inflammatory and pro-resolving lipid mediators in serum of female rats exposed to TRAP or filtered air (FA) for 14 months. Compared to rats exposed to FA, TRAP-exposed rats showed a significant 36-48% reduction in fatty acid alcohols, specifically, 9-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (9-HODE), 11,12-dihydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (11,12-DiHETE) and 16,17-dihydroxydocosapentaenoic acid (16, 17-DiHDPA). The decrease in fatty acid diols (11,12-DiHETE and 16, 17-DiHDPA) corresponded to a significant 34-39% reduction in the diol to epoxide ratio, a marker of soluble epoxide hydrolase activity; this enzyme is typically upregulated during inflammation. The findings demonstrate that 14 months exposure to TRAP reduced pro-inflammatory 9-HODE concentration and dampened soluble epoxide hydrolase activation, suggesting adaptive immune changes in lipid mediator pathways involved in inflammation resolution.

Abstract
Supplementing long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n3-PUFA) improves health. We characterized the pattern of total and non-esterified oxylipins and fatty acids in n3 supplements made of fish, krill, or micro-algae oil by LC-MS. All supplements contained the declared amount of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA); however, their content per capsule and the concentration of other fatty acids varied strongly. Krill oil contained the highest total n3 oxylipin concentration (6000 nmol/g) and the highest degree of oxidation (EPA 0.7%; DHA 1.3%), while micro-algae oil (Schizochytrium sp.) showed the lowest oxidation (<0.09%). These oils contain specifically high amounts of the terminal hydroxylation product of EPA (20-HEPE, 300 nmol/g) and DHA (22-HDHA, 200 nmol/g), which can serve as an authenticity marker for micro-algae oil. Refined micro-algae and fish oil were characterized by NEFA levels of ≤0.1%. Overall, the oxylipin and fatty acid pattern allows gaining new insights into the origin and quality of n3-PUFA oils in supplements.

Abstract
Metabolomics has achieved great progress over the last 20 years, and it is currently considered a mature research field. As a result, the number of applications in toxicology, biomarker, and drug discovery has also increased. Toxicometabolomics has emerged as a powerful strategy to provide complementary information to study molecular-level toxic effects, which can be combined with a wide range of toxicological assessments and models. The zebrafish model has gained importance in recent decades as a bridging tool between in vitro assays and mammalian in vivo studies in the field of toxicology. Furthermore, as this vertebrate model is a low-cost system and features highly conserved metabolic pathways found in humans and mammalian models, it is a promising tool for toxicometabolomics. This short review aims to introduce zebrafish researchers interested in understanding the effects of chemical exposure using metabolomics to the challenges and possibilities of the field, with a special focus on toxicometabolomics-based mass spectrometry. The overall goal is to provide insights into analytical strategies to generate and identify high-quality metabolomic experiments focusing on quality management systems (QMS) and the importance of data reporting and sharing.

Abstract
Fetal bovine serum (FBS) has been used as a universal supplement in cell culture for more than six decades. This includes the investigation of lipid and lipid mediator formation and biology. Little is known about the (polyunsaturated) fatty acid composition and their oxidation products in FBS. Therefore, we analyzed six different FBS purchased from three different companies regarding their fatty acid and oxylipin concentrations. We found pronounced differences in the fatty acid concentrations. Even two batches of "standardized" FBS batches from one company showed drastic differences (e.g., for eicosapentaenoic acid 5 ± 1 μM vs. 11 ± 1 μM). Oxylipin concentrations also markedly differ between the FBS lots. The highest differences were found for 12-lipoxygenase products (e.g., 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid free 21-87 nM and total 58-108 nM), probably due to inconsistent serum generation procedures. Our results indicate that for cell culture studies dealing with lipid metabolism, researchers should carefully characterize their used FBS to ensure reliability and reproducibility of study outcomes.

Abstract
Analysis of fatty acids (FA) in food and biological samples such as blood is indispensable in modern life sciences. We developed a rapid, sensitive and comprehensive method for the quantification of 41 saturated and unsaturated fatty acids by means of LC-MS. Optimized chromatographic separation of isobaric analytes was carried out on a C8 reversed phase analytical column (100 × 2.1 mm, 2.6 μm core–shell particle) with a total run time of 15 min with back pressure lower than 300 bar. On an old triple quadrupole instrument (3200, AB Sciex), pseudo selected reaction monitoring mode was used for quantification of the poorly fragmenting FA, yielding limits of detection of 5–100 nM. Sample preparation was carried out by removal of phospholipids and triglycerides by solid-phase extraction (non-esterified fatty acids in oils) or saponification in iso-propanol (fatty acyls). This is not only a rapid strategy for quantification of fatty acyls, but allows the direct combination with the LC-MS-based analysis of fatty acid oxidation products (eicosanoids and other oxylipins) from the same sample. The concentrations of fatty acyls determined by means of LC-MS were consistent with those from GC-FID analysis demonstrating the accuracy of the developed method. Moreover, the method shows high precisions with a low intra-day (≤ 10% for almost all fatty acids in plasma and ≤ 15% in oils) and inter-day as well as inter-operator variability (< 20%). The method was successfully applied on human plasma and edible oils. The possibility to quantify non-esterified fatty acids in samples containing an excess of triacylglycerols and phospholipids is a major strength of the described approach allowing to gain new insights in the composition of biological samples.

Abstract
This study was prompted by recent reports that epoxyeicosatrienoic (EET) and epoxyeicosatetraenoic (EEQ) acids accelerate tumor growth and metastasis by stimulation of angiogenesis, while eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and epoxydocosapentaenoic (EDP) acids inhibit angiogenesis, tumor growth, and metastasis. Cytochrome P450 epoxygenases convert arachidonic to EET, eicosapentaenoic acid to EEQ, and docosahexaenoic acid to EDP, which are found both in free form and esterified to glycerophosphocholine (GPC). Both free and esterified epoxy (EP) acids are also formed during lipid autoxidation. For biological activity, the GPC-EP requires hydrolysis, which we presumed could occur by sPLA2 s located in proximity of lipoproteins carrying the lipid epoxides. The plasma lipoproteins were isolated by ultracentrifugation and analyzed by LC/ESI-MS. The GPC-EPs were identified by reference to standards and to retention times of phospholipid masses. The GPC-EP monoepoxides (corrected for isobaric ether overlaps) in stored human LDL, HDL, HDL3 , or APHDL ranged from 0 to 1 nmol/mg protein, but during 4-h incubation at 37°C increased to 1-5 nmol/mg protein. An incubation of autoxidized LDL, HDL, or HDL3 with 1 μg/ml of group V or X sPLA2 resulted in complete hydrolysis of diacyl GPC epoxide esters. Group IIA sPLA2 at 1 μg/ml failed to produce significant hydrolysis in 4 h, but at 2.5 μg/ml in 8 h yielded almost 80% hydrolysis, which represented complete diacyl GPC-EP hydrolysis. The present study shows that group IIA, V, and X sPLA2 s are capable of extensive hydrolysis of PtdCho epoxides of autoxidized plasma lipoproteins. Therefore, all three human sPLA2 s were potentially capable of inducing epoxide biological activity in vivo.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether dietary interventions that increase n-3 fatty acids with and without reduction in n-6 linoleic acid can alter circulating lipid mediators implicated in headache pathogenesis, and decrease headache in adults with migraine. DESIGN Three arm, parallel group, randomized, modified double blind, controlled trial. SETTING Ambulatory, academic medical center in the United States over 16 weeks. PARTICIPANTS 182 participants (88% women, mean age 38 years) with migraines on 5-20 days per month (67% met criteria for chronic migraine). INTERVENTIONS Three diets designed with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and linoleic acid altered as controlled variables: H3 diet (n=61)-increase EPA+DHA to 1.5 g/day and maintain linoleic acid at around 7% of energy; H3-L6 diet (n=61)-increase n-3 EPA+DHA to 1.5 g/day and decrease linoleic acid to ≤1.8% of energy; control diet (n=60)-maintain EPA+DHA at <150 mg/day and linoleic acid at around 7% of energy. All participants received foods accounting for two thirds of daily food energy and continued usual care. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary endpoints (week 16) were the antinociceptive mediator 17-hydroxydocosahexaenoic acid (17-HDHA) in blood and the headache impact test (HIT-6), a six item questionnaire assessing headache impact on quality of life. Headache frequency was assessed daily with an electronic diary. RESULTS In intention-to-treat analyses (n=182), the H3-L6 and H3 diets increased circulating 17-HDHA (log ng/mL) compared with the control diet (baseline-adjusted mean difference 0.6, 95% confidence interval 0.2 to 0.9; 0.7, 0.4 to 1.1, respectively). The observed improvement in HIT-6 scores in the H3-L6 and H3 groups was not statistically significant (-1.6, -4.2 to 1.0, and -1.5, -4.2 to 1.2, respectively). Compared with the control diet, the H3-L6 and H3 diets decreased total headache hours per day (-1.7, -2.5 to -0.9, and -1.3, -2.1 to -0.5, respectively), moderate to severe headache hours per day (-0.8, -1.2 to -0.4, and -0.7, -1.1 to -0.3, respectively), and headache days per month (-4.0, -5.2 to -2.7, and -2.0, -3.3 to -0.7, respectively). The H3-L6 diet decreased headache days per month more than the H3 diet (-2.0, -3.2 to -0.8), suggesting additional benefit from lowering dietary linoleic acid. The H3-L6 and H3 diets altered n-3 and n-6 fatty acids and several of their nociceptive oxylipin derivatives in plasma, serum, erythrocytes or immune cells, but did not alter classic headache mediators calcitonin gene related peptide and prostaglandin E2. CONCLUSIONS The H3-L6 and H3 interventions altered bioactive mediators implicated in headache pathogenesis and decreased frequency and severity of headaches, but did not significantly improve quality of life.

Method optimization of oxylipin hydrolysis in nonprocessed bovine milk indicates that the majority of oxylipins are esterified. J Food Sci 2021; 86:1791-1801. [PMID: 33864645 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.15697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2020] [Revised: 02/20/2021] [Accepted: 02/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
The oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids produces bioactive primary oxidation products known as oxylipins. In many biological matrices, the majority of oxylipins are bound (i.e. esterified), and a relatively small proportion (<10%) exists in the free form. The present study tested whether this extends to bovine milk following method evaluation of various extraction and base hydrolysis protocols for measuring bound oxylipins. Free (unbound) oxylipins were also measured. Folch extraction followed by sodium carbonate hydrolysis in the presence of methanol containing 0.1% of acetic acid and 0.1% of butylated hydroxytoluene resulted in greater oxylipin concentrations and better surrogate standard recoveries compared to other methods that did not involve Folch extraction or the addition of methanol with hydrolysis base. Sodium hydroxide was better than sodium carbonate in hydrolyzing bound oxylipins under the same conditions. Milk analysis of oxylipins with mass-spectrometry following Folch extraction and sodium hydroxide hydrolysis revealed that 95% of oxylipins in bovine milk were esterified. Most of the detected oxylipins were derived from linoleic acid, which accounted for 92 and 88% of oxylipins in the free and esterified pools, respectively. These results demonstrate that the majority of bovine milk oxylipins are bound, and that linoleic-acid derived metabolites are the most abundant oxylipin species in free and bound lipid pools. Additional studies are needed to understand the role of different oxylipin pools in both calf and human nutrition. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: A method involving Folch lipid extraction and sodium hydroxide hydrolysis was validated for esterified oxylipin measurements in bovine milk. Application of the method revealed that the majority (∼95%) of oxylipins in bovine milk were bound. Linoleic-acid derived oxylipins were the most abundant species in both bound and free milk fractions (88-92%). The results highlight the presence of a new pool of oxidized lipids in milk, potentially involved in modifying its sensory and nutritional properties.

Abstract
In oil, free fatty acids (FFAs) are thought compared the efficiency of hydrolysis wto be the preferred substrate for lipid oxidation although triacylglycerols (TAGs) are the predominant lipid class. We determined the preferential oxidation substrate (TAGs versus FFAs) in soybean oil heated at 100 °C for 24 h, after validating a method for quantifying esterified and free lipid oxidation products (i.e., oxylipins) with mass-spectrometry. Reaction velocities and turnover (velocity per unit substrate) of FFA, and free and TAG-bound (esterified) oxylipins were determined. FFA hydrolysis rate and turnover were orders of magnitude greater (16-4217 fold) than that of esterified and free oxylipin formation. The velocity and turnover of TAG-bound oxylipins was significantly greater than free oxylipins by 282- and 3-fold, respectively. The results suggest that during heating, TAGs are preferentially oxidized over FFAs, despite the rapid hydrolysis and availability of individual FFAs as substrates for oxidation. TAG-bound oxylipins may serve as better markers of lipid oxidation.

A Walnut Diet in Combination with Enriched Environment Improves Cognitive Function and Affects Lipid Metabolites in Brain and Liver of Aged NMRI Mice. Neuromolecular Med 2020; 23:140-160. [PMID: 33367957 PMCID: PMC7929966 DOI: 10.1007/s12017-020-08639-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2020] [Accepted: 11/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
This in vivo study aimed to test if a diet enriched with 6% walnuts alone or in combination with physical activity supports healthy ageing by changing the oxylipin profile in brain and liver, improving motor function, cognition, and cerebral mitochondrial function. Female NMRI mice were fed a 6% walnut diet starting at an age of 12 months for 24 weeks. One group was additionally maintained in an enriched environment, one group without intervention served as control. After three months, one additional control group of young mice (3 weeks old) was introduced. Motor and cognitive functions were measured using Open Field, Y-Maze, Rotarod and Passive Avoidance tests. Lipid metabolite profiles were determined using RP-LC-ESI(-)-MS/MS in brain and liver tissues of mice. Cerebral mitochondrial function was characterized by the determination of ATP levels, mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial respiration. Expression of genes involved with mito- and neurogenesis, inflammation, and synaptic plasticity were determined using qRT-PCR. A 6% walnut-enriched diet alone improved spatial memory in a Y-Maze alternation test (p < 0.05) in mice. Additional physical enrichment enhanced the significance, although the overall benefit was virtually identical. Instead, physical enrichment improved motor performance in a Rotarod experiment (p* < 0.05) which was unaffected by walnuts alone. Bioactive oxylipins like hydroxy-polyunsaturated fatty acids (OH-PUFA) derived from linoleic acid (LA) were significantly increased in brain (p** < 0.01) and liver (p*** < 0.0001) compared to control mice, while OH-PUFA of α-linolenic acid (ALA) could only be detected in the brains of mice fed with walnuts. In the brain, walnuts combined with physical activity reduced arachidonic acid (ARA)-based oxylipin levels (p < 0.05). Effects of walnut lipids were not linked to mitochondrial function, as ATP production, mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial respiration were unaffected. Furthermore, common markers for synaptic plasticity and neuronal growth, key genes in the regulation of cytoprotective response to oxidative stress and neuronal growth were unaffected. Taken together, walnuts change the oxylipin profile in liver and brain, which could have beneficial effects for healthy ageing, an effect that can be further enhanced with an active lifestyle. Further studies may focus on specific nutrient lipids that potentially provide preventive effects in the brain.

Abstract
Linoleic acid (LNA)-derived 13-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (13-HODE) is a bioactive lipid mediator that regulates multiple signaling processes in vivo. 13-HODE is also produced when LNA is oxidized during food processing. However, the absorption and incorporation kinetics of dietary 13-HODE into tissues is not known. The present study measured unesterified d4-13-HODE plasma bioavailability and incorporation into rat liver, adipose, heart and brain following gavage or intravenous (IV) injection (n = 3 per group). Mass spectrometry analysis revealed that d4-13-HODE was absorbed within 20 min of gavage, and continued to incorporate into plasma esterified lipid fractions throughout the 90 min monitoring period (incorporation half-life of 71 min). Following IV injection, unesterified d4-13-HODE was rapidly eliminated from plasma with a half-life of 1 min. Analysis of tracer incorporation kinetics into rat tissues following IV injection or gavage revealed that the esterified tracer preferentially incorporated into liver, adipose and heart compared to unesterified d4-13-HODE. No tracer was detected in the brain. This study demonstrates that dietary 13-HODE is absorbed, and incorporated into peripheral tissues from esterified plasma lipid pools. Understanding the chronic effects of dietary 13-HODE exposure on peripheral tissue physiology and metabolism merits future investigation.

Abstract
The intake of long-chain n3-polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which are associated with beneficial health effects, is low in the Western diet, while the portion of dietary n6-PUFA and hence the n6/n3-PUFA ratio is high. Strategies to improve the n3-PUFA status are n3-PUFA supplementation and/or lowering n6-PUFA intake. In the present study, mice were fed with two different sunflower oil-based control diets rich in linoleic (n6-high) or oleic acid (n6-low), either with low n3-PUFA content (∼0.02%) as control or with ∼0.6% eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The n6-low diet had only little or no effect on levels of arachidonic acid (ARA) and its free oxylipins in liver tissue. Supplementation with EPA or DHA lowered ARA levels with an effect size of n6-high < n6-low. Blood cell %EPA + DHA reached >8% and >11% in n6-high and n6-low groups, respectively. Elevation of EPA levels and EPA derived oxylipins was most pronounced in n6-low groups in liver tissue, while levels of DHA and DHA derived oxylipins were generally unaffected by the background diet. While the n6-low diet alone had no effect on blood and liver tissue ARA levels or n3-PUFA status, a supplementation of EPA or DHA was more effective in combination with an n6-low diet. Thus, supplementation of long-chain n3-PUFA combined with a reduction of dietary n6-PUFA is the most effective way to improve the endogenous n3-PUFA status.

Abstract
Fish and algae oil supplements are enriched with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are precursors to oxidized fatty acids, known as oxylipins. Here, we optimized a base hydrolysis method for measuring oxylipins in oil with ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass-spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) and quantified them in fish and algae oil supplements. Hydrolysis of 2 μL of oil with sodium carbonate resulted in greater oxylipin concentrations and minimal matrix effects, compared to higher oil volumes (10, 20, and 30 μL). Oxylipin yield was higher when oil was hydrolyzed in methanol containing 0.1% acetic acid and 0.1% butylated hydroxytoluene, compared to no methanol, and using sodium hydroxide versus sodium carbonate. Oxylipins extracted from 2 μL of oil using sodium hydroxide in solvent showed that EPA-derived oxylipins were most abundant in fish oil (84-87%), whereas DHA-oxylipins were abundant in algae oil (83%). This study shows that fish and algae oils are direct sources of EPA- and DHA-derived oxylipins.

Abstract
Oxylipins are potent lipid mediators involved in a variety of physiological processes. Their profiling has the potential to provide a wealth of information regarding human health and disease and is a promising technology for translation into clinical applications. However, results generated by independent groups are rarely comparable, which increases the need for the implementation of internationally agreed upon protocols. We performed an interlaboratory comparison for the MS-based quantitative analysis of total oxylipins. Five independent laboratories assessed the technical variability and comparability of 133 oxylipins using a harmonized and standardized protocol, common biological materials (i.e., seven quality control plasmas), standard calibration series, and analytical methods. The quantitative analysis was based on a standard calibration series with isotopically labeled internal standards. Using the standardized protocol, the technical variance was within ±15% for 73% of oxylipins; however, most epoxy fatty acids were identified as critical analytes due to high variabilities in concentrations. The comparability of concentrations determined by the laboratories was examined using consensus value estimates and unsupervised/supervised multivariate analysis (i.e., principal component analysis and partial least squares discriminant analysis). Interlaboratory variability was limited and did not interfere with our ability to distinguish the different plasmas. Moreover, all laboratories were able to identify similar differences between plasmas. In summary, we show that by using a standardized protocol for sample preparation, low technical variability can be achieved. Harmonization of all oxylipin extraction and analysis steps led to reliable, reproducible, and comparable oxylipin concentrations in independent laboratories, allowing the generation of biologically meaningful oxylipin patterns.

Abstract
The products of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP)-catalyzed oxidation of arachidonic acid (AA), that is, epoxy- and hydroxy-fatty acids, play a crucial role in the homeostasis of several physiological processes. In a liver microsome-based multienzyme assay using AA as natural substrate, we investigated how polyphenols inhibit different oxylipin-forming CYP in parallel but independently from each other. The ω-hydroxylating CYP4F2 and CYP4A11 were investigated, as well as the epoxidizing CYP2C-subfamily and CYP3A4 along with the (ω-n)-hydroxylating CYP1A1 and CYP2E1. The oxylipin formation was inhibited by several polyphenols with a remarkable selectivity and a potency comparable to known CYP inhibitors. The flavone apigenin inhibited the epoxidation, ω-hydroxylation, and (ω-n)-hydroxylation of AA with IC50 values of 4.4-9.8, 2.9-10, and 10-25 μM, respectively. Other flavones such as wogonin selectively inhibited CYP1A1-catalyzed (ω-n)-hydroxylation with an IC50 value of 0.10-0.22 μM, while the isoflavone genistein was a selective ω-hydroxylase inhibitor (IC50: 5.5-46 μM). Of note, the flavanone naringenin and the anthocyanidin perlargonidin did not inhibit CYPs of the AA cascade. Moderate permeability of apigenin as tested in the Caco-2 model of intestinal absorption (Papp: 4.5 ± 1 × 10-6 cm/s) and confirmation of the inhibition of 20-HETE formation by apigenin in the colorectal cancer-derived cell line HCT 116 (IC50: 1.5-8.8 μM) underline the possible in vivo relevance of these effects. Further research is needed to better understand how polyphenols impact human health by this newly described molecular mode of action.

Abstract
Eicosanoids and other oxylipins play an important role in mediating inflammation as well as other biological processes. For the investigation of their biological role(s), comprehensive analytical methods are necessary, which are able to provide reliable identification and quantification of these compounds in biological matrices. Using charge-switch derivatization with AMPP (N-(4-aminomethylphenyl)pyridinium chloride) in combination with liquid chromatography ion mobility quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-IM-QTOF-MS), we developed a non-target approach to analyze oxylipins in plasma, serum, and cells. The developed workflow makes use of an ion mobility resolved fragmentation to pinpoint derivatized molecules based on the cleavage of AMPP, which yields two specific fragment ions. This allows a reliable identification of known and unknown eicosanoids and other oxylipins. We characterized the workflow using 52 different oxylipins and investigated their fragmentation patterns and ion mobilities. Limits of detection ranged between 0.2 and 10.0 nM (1.0-50 pg on column), which is comparable with other state-of-the-art methods using LC triple quadrupole (QqQ) MS. Moreover, we applied this strategy to analyze oxylipins in different biologically relevant matrices, as cultured cells, human plasma, and serum. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Quantitative analysis of oxylipins in blood samples is of increasing interest in clinical studies. However, storage after sampling and transport of blood might induce artificial changes in the apparent oxylipin profile due to ex vivo formation/degradation by autoxidation or enzymatic activity. In the present study we investigated the stability of free (i.e. non-esterified) and total oxylipins in EDTA-plasma and serum generated under clinical conditions assessing delays in sample processing and automated transportation: Free cytochrome P450 monooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase (LOX) formed oxylipins as well as autoxidation products were marginally affected by storage of whole blood up to 4 h at 4 °C, while total (i.e. the sum of free and esterified) levels of these oxylipins were stable up to 24 h and following transport. Cyclooxygenase (COX) products (TxB2, 12-HHT) and 12-LOX derived hydroxy-fatty acids were prone to storage and transport induced changes due to platelet activation. Total oxylipin patterns were generally more stable than the concentration of free oxylipins. In serum, coagulation induced higher levels of COX and 12-LOX products showing a high inter-individual variability. Overall, our results indicate that total EDTA-plasma oxylipins are the most stable blood oxylipin marker for clinical samples. Here, storage of blood before further processing is acceptable for a period up to 24 hours at 4 °C. However, levels of platelet derived oxylipins should be interpreted with caution regarding potential ex vivo formation.
