Abstract
Silicosis, recognized as a severe global public health issue, is an irreversible pulmonary fibrosis caused by the long-term inhalation of silica particles. Given the intricate pathogenesis of silicosis, there is no effective intervention measure, which poses a severe threat to public health. Our previous study reported that dysbiosis of lung microbiota is associated with the development of pulmonary fibrosis, potentially involving the lipopolysaccharides/toll-like receptor 4 pathway. Similarly, the process of pulmonary fibrosis is accompanied by alterations in metabolic pathways. This study employed a combined approach of 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolomic analysis to investigate further the role of lung microbiota in silicosis delving deeper into the potential pathogenesis of silicosis. Silica exposure can lead to dysbiosis of the lung microbiota and the occurrence of pulmonary fibrosis, which was alleviated by a combination antibiotic intervention. Additionally, significant metabolic disturbances were found in silicosis, involving 85 differential metabolites among the three groups, which are mainly focused on amino acid metabolic pathways. The changed lung metabolites showed a substantial correlation with lung microbiota. The relative abundance of Pseudomonas negatively correlated with L-Aspartic acid, L-Glutamic acid, and L-Threonine levels. These results indicate that dysbiosis in pulmonary microbiota exacerbates silica-induced fibrosis through impacts on amino acid metabolism, providing new insights into the potential mechanisms and interventions of silicosis.

The novel molecular mechanism of pulmonary fibrosis: insight into lipid metabolism from reanalysis of single-cell RNA-seq databases. Lipids Health Dis 2024; 23:98. [PMID: 38570797 PMCID: PMC10988923 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-024-02062-8] [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: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a severe pulmonary disease with limited available therapeutic choices. Recent evidence increasingly points to abnormal lipid metabolism as a critical factor in PF pathogenesis. Our latest research identifies the dysregulation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is a new risk factor for PF, contributing to alveolar epithelial and endothelial cell damage, and fibroblast activation. In this study, we first integrative summarize the published literature about lipid metabolite changes found in PF, including phospholipids, glycolipids, steroids, fatty acids, triglycerides, and lipoproteins. We then reanalyze two single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets of PF, and the corresponding lipid metabolomic genes responsible for these lipids' biosynthesis, catabolism, transport, and modification processes are uncovered. Intriguingly, we found that macrophage is the most active cell type in lipid metabolism, with almost all lipid metabolic genes being altered in macrophages of PF. In type 2 alveolar epithelial cells, lipid metabolic differentially expressed genes (DEGs) are primarily associated with the cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol pathway, cholesterol metabolism, and triglyceride synthesis. Endothelial cells are partly responsible for sphingomyelin, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylethanolamines reprogramming as their metabolic genes are dysregulated in PF. Fibroblasts may contribute to abnormal cholesterol, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylethanolamine metabolism in PF. Therefore, the reprogrammed lipid profiles in PF may be attributed to the aberrant expression of lipid metabolic genes in different cell types. Taken together, these insights underscore the potential of targeting lipid metabolism in developing innovative therapeutic strategies, potentially leading to extended overall survival in individuals affected by PF.

Abstract
Silicosis is an irreversible, progressive, fibrotic lung disease caused by long-term exposure to dust-containing silica particles at the workplace. Despite the precautions enforced, the rising incidence of silicosis continues to occur globally, particularly in developing countries. A better understanding of the disease progression and potential metabolic reprogramming of silicosis is warranted. The low- or high-dose silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice was constructed to mimic chronic or accelerated silicosis. Silica-induced mice lung fibrosis was analyzed by histology, lung function, and computed tomography scans. Non-targeted metabolomics of the lung tissues was conducted by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to show the temporal metabolic trajectory. The low-dose silica-induced silicosis characterized inflammation for up to 42 days, with the onset of cellular silicon nodules. Conversely, the high-dose silica-induced silicosis characterized inflammation for up to 14 days, after which the disease developed rapidly, with a large volume of collagen deposition, presenting progressive massive fibrosis. Both low- and high silica-induced fibrosis had aberrant lipid metabolism. Combined with the RNA-Seq data, this multiomics study demonstrated alterations in the enzymes involved in sphingolipid metabolism. Time-dependent metabolic reprogramming revealing abnormal glycerophospholipid metabolism was intimately associated with the process of inflammation, whereas sphingolipid metabolism was crucial during lung fibrosis. These findings suggest that lipid dysregulation, especially sphingolipid metabolism, was involved in the process of silicosis.

Serum metabolic profiling of coal worker's pneumoconiosis using untargeted lipidomics. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 29:85444-85453.

Abstract
In this work, untargeted lipidomics was employed to analyze the effects of coal dust exposure on serum metabolite profiles. Furthermore, the potential of differential metabolites as novel biomarkers for diagnosis was investigated by binary logistic classification model. Nineteen differential metabolites were found among the three groups. The compounds were enriched in pathways associated with linoleic acid metabolism and pyrimidine metabolism. Fifty-three differential metabolites were found in coal dust-exposed people and CWP patients, and they were mainly enriched in glycerophospholipid metabolism. Three differential metabolites were correlated with lung function values. The diagnostic model, composed of lysoPI (16:0/0:0), bilirubin, and lysoPC (24:1/0:0), showed strong discrimination ability between dust-exposed people and CWP patients. The sensitivity, specificity, and AUC values of the model were 0.869, 0.600, and 0.750, respectively. The results suggest that coal worker's pneumoconiosis causes abnormal lipid metabolism in the body. A diagnostic model may aid current CWP diagnostic methods, and lysoPI (16:0/0:0), bilirubin, and lysoPC (24:1/0:0) can be used as potential CWP biomarkers. Further study is warranted to validate the findings in larger populations.

Abstract
Silicosis is an incurable lung disease that can progress even when exposure to silica dust has ended. Lipid metabolism plays an important role in the occurrence and development of silicosis. However, the mechanistic details have not been fully elucidated. This was investigated in the current study by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-based lipidomic analysis of lung tissue in a mouse model of silicosis. Lipid profiles and key metabolic enzymes were compared between silica and control groups. The lipidomic analysis revealed differentially-expressed lipids in the lungs of silicosis mice compared with controls. Among the identified lipid metabolism-related enzymes, the expression of lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1 (LPCAT1) was significantly down-regulated at the transcript and protein levels. LPCAT1 overexpression in vivo using adeno-associated virus altered the balance between phosphatidylcholine and lysophosphatidylcholine and inhibited the development of silicosis in mice. These results indicate that LPCAT1 dysregulation leads to abnormal lipid metabolism and silicosis, and is a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis.

BMC Pulm Med 2022; 22:240. [PMID: 35729551 PMCID: PMC9210623 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-022-02040-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Silicosis, as an important type of pneumoconiosis, leads to progressive and irreversible conditions from the beginning of inflammation and fibrosis. However, the data on the global burden of silicosis and long-term trends were limited. Methods Derived from the Global Burden of Disease study 2019 (online publicly available: Global Health Data Exchange), data on both crude and age-standardized rates (ASR) per 100,00 people of mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) due to silicosis was collected and analyzed. The burden and trends of mortality and DALYs due to silicosis was assessed by 204 countries and territories, by 5-year interval of age group and by sex from 1990 to 2019. And all the regions were divided into 5 categories according to Sociodemographic Index (SDI). Temporal trends in mortality and DALY were evaluated only to ASR by the Joinpoint regression model. Results More than 12.9 thousand [95% Uncertainty Intervals (UI): 10.9, 16.2] death cases occurred due to silicosis worldwide, and 655.7 thousand (95% UI: 519.3, 828.0) DALYs were attributed to silicosis in 2019. From 1990 to 2019, global number of mortality and DALYs in countries with high SDI quintile decreased by 0.35% (95% UI: − 0.45, − 0.17) and 0.32% (95% UI: − 0.45, − 0.01), respectively. There was a greater burden in low- and middle-income countries were estimated in 2019 according to ASRs. The global number of mortality and DALYs among males accounted for over 95% of all in 2019. Both age-sex-specific mortality and DALY rate were increasing with aging and reached their peak at 85–89 age group. During the past 30 years, ASR of mortality and DALYs showed a decreasing trend with average annual percentage change at -3.0% [95% Confidence Intervals (CI): − 3.2, − 2.9] and − 2.0 (95% CI: − 1.7, − 2.2), respectively. Conclusions Silicosis remains an important health issue and causes a potentially serious burden worldwide. Attention should be paid to making preventable, affordable and effective measures in lower SDI regions.
