Abstract
Metabolomics is a rapidly expanding field in systems biology used to measure alterations of metabolites and identify metabolic biomarkers in response to disease processes. The discovery of metabolic biomarkers can improve early diagnosis, prognostic prediction, and therapeutic intervention for cancers. However, there are currently no databases that provide a comprehensive evaluation of the relationship between metabolites and cancer processes. In this review, we summarize reported metabolites in body fluids across pan-cancers and characterize their clinical applications in liquid biopsy. We conducted a search for metabolic biomarkers using the keywords ("metabolomics" OR "metabolite") AND "cancer" in PubMed. Of the 22,254 articles retrieved, 792 were deemed potentially relevant for further review. Ultimately, we included data from 573,300 samples and 17,083 metabolic biomarkers. We collected information on cancer types, sample size, the human metabolome database (HMDB) ID, metabolic pathway, area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity and specificity of metabolites, sample source, detection method, and clinical features were collected. Finally, we developed a user-friendly online database, the Human Cancer Metabolic Markers Database (HCMMD), which allows users to query, browse, and download metabolite information. In conclusion, HCMMD provides an important resource to assist researchers in reviewing metabolic biomarkers for diagnosis and progression of cancers.

Abstract
It has been reported that aging-generated gut microecosystem may promote host hepatic lipid dysmetabolism through shaping the pattern of secondary bile acids (BAs). Then as an oral drug, melatonin (Mel)-mediated beneficial efforts on the communication between gut microbiota and aging host are still not clearly. Here, we show that aging significantly shapes the pattern of gut microbiota and BAs, whereas Mel treatment reverses these phenotypes (P < 0.05), which is identified to depend on the existence of gut microbiota. Mechanistically, aging-triggered high-level expression of ileac farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is significantly decreased through Mel-mediated inhibition on Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni)-induced deconjugation of tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) and glycoursodeoxycholic acid (GUDCA) (P < 0.05). The aging-induced high-level of serum taurine chenodeoxycholic acid (TCDCA) activate trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO)-triggered activating transcriptional factor 4 (ATF4) signaling via hepatic FXR, which further regulates hepatic BAs metabolism, whereas TUDCA inhibits aging-triggered high-level of hepatic ATF4. Overall, Mel reduces C. jejuni-mediated deconjugation of TUDCA to inhibit aging-triggered high-level expression of hepatic FXR, which further decreases hepatic TMAO production, to relieve hepatic lipid dysmetabolism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The high drug resistance and metabolic reprogramming of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) are considered responsible for poor prognosis. In-depth research at multiple levels is urgently warranted to illustrate the lipid composition, distribution, and metabolic pathways of clinical ccRCC specimens. METHODS In this project, a leading-edge targeted quantitative lipidomic study was conducted using 10 pairs of cancerous and adjacent normal tissues obtained from ccRCC patients. Accurate lipid quantification was performed according to a linear equation calculated using internal standards. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of lipids were performed with multiple reaction monitoring analysis based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) and mass spectrometry (MS). Additionally, a multivariate statistical analysis was performed using data obtained on lipids. RESULTS A total of 28 lipid classes were identified. Among them, the most abundant were triacylglycerol (TG), diacylglycerol (DG), phosphatidylcholine (PC), and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). Cholesteryl ester (CE) was the lipid exhibiting the most considerable difference between normal samples and tumor samples. Lipid content, chain length, and chain unsaturation of acylcarnitine (CAR), CE, and DG were found to be significantly increased. Based on screening for variable importance in projection scores ≥1, as well as fold change limits between 0.5 and 2, 160 differentially expressed lipids were identified. CE was found to be the most significantly upregulated lipid, while TG was observed to be the most significantly downregulated lipid. CONCLUSION Based on the absolute quantitative analysis of lipids in ccRCC specimens, it was observed that the content and change trends varied in different lipid classes. Upregulation of CAR, CE, and DG was observed, and analysis of changes in the distribution helped clarify the causes of lipid accumulation in ccRCC and possible carcinogenic molecular mechanisms. The results and methods described herein provide a comprehensive analysis of ccRCC lipid metabolism and lay a theoretical foundation for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Fatty liver disease can be triggered by a combination of excess alcohol, dysmetabolism and other environmental cues, which can lead to steatohepatitis and can evolve to acute/chronic liver failure and hepatocellular carcinoma, especially in the presence of shared inherited determinants. The recent identification of the genetic causes of steatohepatitis is revealing new avenues for more effective risk stratification. Discovery of the mechanisms underpinning the detrimental effect of causal mutations has led to some breakthroughs in the comprehension of the pathophysiology of steatohepatitis. Thanks to this approach, hepatocellular fat accumulation, altered lipid droplet remodelling and lipotoxicity have now taken centre stage, while the role of adiposity and gut-liver axis alterations have been independently validated. This process could ignite a virtuous research cycle that, starting from human genomics, through omics approaches, molecular genetics and disease models, may lead to the development of new therapeutics targeted to patients at higher risk. Herein, we also review how this knowledge has been applied to: a) the study of the main PNPLA3 I148M risk variant, up to the stage of the first in-human therapeutic trials; b) highlight a role of MBOAT7 downregulation and lysophosphatidyl-inositol in steatohepatitis; c) identify IL-32 as a candidate mediator linking lipotoxicity to inflammation and liver disease. Although this precision medicine drug discovery pipeline is mainly being applied to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, there is hope that successful products could be repurposed to treat alcohol-related liver disease as well.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer. HCC is particularly aggressive and is one of the leading causes of cancer mortality. In recent decades, the epidemiological landscape of HCC has undergone significant changes. While chronic viral hepatitis and excessive alcohol consumption have long been identified as the main risk factors for HCC, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), paralleling the worldwide epidemic of obesity and type 2 diabetes, has become a growing cause of HCC in the US and Europe. Here, we review the recent advances in epidemiological, genetic, epigenetic and pathogenic mechanisms as well as experimental mouse models that have improved the understanding of NASH progression toward HCC. We also discuss the clinical management of patients with NASH-related HCC and possible therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Campylobacter jejuni is a prevalent human pathogen and a major cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in the world. In humans, C. jejuni colonizes the intestinal tract and its tolerance to bile is crucial for bacteria to survive and establish infection. C. jejuni produces outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) which have been suggested to be involved in virulence. In this study, the proteome composition of C. jejuni OMVs in response to low concentration of bile was investigated. We showed that exposure of C. jejuni to low concentrations of bile, similar to the concentration in cecum, induced significant changes in the protein profile of OMVs released during growth without affecting the protein profile of the bacteria. This suggests that bile influences a selective packing of the OMVs after bacterial exposure to low bile. A low concentration of bile was found to increase bacterial adhesion to intestinal epithelial cells, likely by an enhanced hydrophobicity of the cell membrane following exposure to bile. The increased bacterial adhesiveness was not associated with increased invasion, instead bile exposure decreased C. jejuni invasion. OMVs released from bacteria upon exposure to low bile showed to increase both adhesion and invasion of non-bile-exposed bacteria into intestinal epithelial cells. These findings suggest that C. jejuni in environments with low concentrations of bile produce OMVs that facilitates colonization of the bacteria, and this could potentially contribute to virulence of C. jejuni in the gut.
