Abstract
Chronic inflammation poses challenges to effective cancer treatment. Although anti-inflammatory therapies have shown short-term benefits, their long-term implications may be unfavorable because they fail to initiate the necessary inflammatory responses. Recent research underscores the promise of specialized pro-resolving mediators, which play a role in modulating the cancer microenvironment by promoting the resolution of initiated inflammatory processes and restoring tissue hemostasis. This review addresses current insights into how inflammation contributes to cancer pathogenesis and explores recent strategies to resolve inflammation associated with cancer.

[PMID: 39188949 PMCID: PMC11345585 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1438567] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background R/S enantiomers of 11-hydroxyeicosatertraenoic acid (11-HETE) are formed from arachidonic acid by enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathways. 11-HETE is predominately formed by the cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1). The role of CYP1B1 in the development of cardiovascular diseases is well established. Objectives This study aimed to assess the cellular hypertrophic effect of 11-HETE enantiomers in human RL-14 cardiomyocyte cell line and to examine their association with CYP1B1 levels. Methods Human fetal ventricular cardiomyocyte, RL-14 cells, were treated with 20 µM (R) or (S) 11-HETE for 24 h. Thereafter, cellular hypertrophic markers and cell size were then determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and phase-contrast imaging, respectively. The mRNA and protein levels of selected CYPs were determined using RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. In addition, we examined the effect of (R) and (S) 11-HETE on CYP1B1 catalytic activity using human recombinant CYP1B1 and human liver microsomes. Results Both (R) and (S) 11-HETE induced cellular hypertrophic markers and cell surface area in RL-14 cells. Both enantiomers significantly upregulated CYP1B1, CYP1A1, CYP4F2, and CYP4A11 at the mRNA and protein levels, however, the effect of the S-enantiomer was more pronounced. Furthermore, 11(S)-HETE increased the mRNA and protein levels of CYP2J and CYP4F2, whereas 11(R)-HETE increased only CYP4F2. Only 11(S)-HETE significantly increased the catalytic activity of CYP1B1 in recombinant human CYP1B1, suggesting allosteric activation in an enantioselective manner. Conclusion Our study provides the first evidence that 11-HETE can induce cellular hypertrophy in RL-14 cells via the increase in CYP1B1 mRNA, protein, and activity levels.

Synovial 5-Lipoxygenase-Derived Oxylipins Define a Lympho-Myeloid-Enriched Synovium. Arthritis Rheumatol 2024; 76:1230-1242. [PMID: 38508862 PMCID: PMC11288786 DOI: 10.1002/art.42848] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Oxylipins are bioactive lipids derived from polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) that modulate inflammation and may remain overexpressed in refractory synovitis. In plasma, they could also be biomarkers of synovial pathology. The aim of this study is to determine if synovial oxylipins in inflamed joints correlate with plasma oxylipins and with synovial histologic patterns. METHODS Patients with established rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis with active disease despite treatment were recruited, and paired synovial tissue (ST) and plasma were collected. Oxylipins were determined by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry and were classified into groups according to their PUFA precursor and enzyme. The expression of CD20, CD68, CD3, and CD138 was obtained to describe synovial histology. Cell-specific expression of oxylipin-related genes was identified by examining available synovial single-cell RNA sequencing data. RESULTS We included a total of 32 ST and 26 paired-plasma samples. A total of 71 oxylipins were identified in ST, but only 24 were identified in plasma. Only levels of 9,10-dihydroxyoctadecenoic acid and tetranor-Prostaglandin FM had a significant positive correlation between plasma and ST. Several oxylipins and oxylipin-related genes were differentially expressed among synovial phenotypes. Specifically, several 5-lipoxygenase (LOX)-derived oxylipins were statistically elevated in the lympho-myeloid phenotype and associated with B cell expression in rheumatoid arthritis samples. CONCLUSION The lack of correlation between ST and plasma oxylipins suggests that ST lipid profiling better characterizes active pathways in treated joints. Synovial 5-LOX-derived oxylipins were highly expressed in lympho-myeloid-enriched synovium. Combination therapy with 5-LOX inhibitors to improve refractory inflammation may be needed in patients with this histologic group.

Abstract
Uncontrolled or dysregulated inflammation has adverse effects on the reproduction, production and health of animals, and is a major pathological cause of increased incidence and severity of infectious and metabolic diseases. To achieve successful transition from a non-lactation pregnant state to a non-pregnant lactation state, drastic metabolic and endocrine alteration have taken place in dairy cows during the periparturient period. These physiological changes, coupled with decreased dry matter intake near calving and sudden change of diet composition after calving, have the potential to disrupt the delicate balance between pro- and anti-inflammation, resulting in a disordered or excessive inflammatory response. In addition to cytokines and other immunoregulatory factors, most oxylipins formed from polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) via enzymatic and nonenzymatic oxygenation pathways have pro- or anti-inflammatory properties and play a pivotal role in the onset, development and resolution of inflammation. However, little attention has been paid to the possibility that oxylipins could function as endogenous immunomodulating agents. This review will provide a detailed overview of the main oxylipins derived from different PUFAs and discuss the regulatory role that oxylipins play in the postpartum inflammatory response in dairy cows. Based on the current research, much remains to be illuminated in this emerging field. Understanding the role that oxylipins play in the control of postpartum inflammation and inflammatory-based disease may improve our ability to prevent transition disorders via Management, pharmacological, genetic selection and dietary intervention strategies.

Abstract
High fructose diets are associated with an increased risk of liver cancer. Previous studies in mice suggest increased lipogenesis is a key mechanism linking high fructose diets to liver tumour growth. However, these studies administered fructose to mice at supraphysiological levels. The aim of this study was to determine whether liver tumour growth and lipogenesis were altered in mice fed fructose at physiological levels. To test this, we injected male C57BL/6 mice with the liver carcinogen diethylnitrosamine and then fed them diets without fructose or fructose ranging from 10 to 20 % total calories. Results showed mice fed diets with ≥15 % fructose had significantly increased liver tumour numbers (2-4-fold) and total tumour burden (∼7-fold) vs mice fed no-fructose diets. However, fructose-associated tumour burden was not associated with lipogenesis. Conversely, unbiased metabolomic analyses revealed bile acids were elevated in the sera of mice fed a 15 % fructose diet vs mice fed a no-fructose diet. Using a syngeneic ectopic liver tumour model, we show that ursodeoxycholic acid, which decreases systemic bile acids, significantly reduced liver tumour growth in mice fed the 15 % fructose diet but not mice fed a no-fructose diet. These results point to a novel role for systemic bile acids in mediating liver tumour growth associated with a high fructose diet. Overall, our study shows fructose intake at or above normal human consumption (≥15 %) is associated with increased liver tumour numbers and growth and that modulating systemic bile acids inhibits fructose-associated liver tumour growth in mice.

Lipidomic changes in a novel sepsis outcome-based analysis reveals potent pro-inflammatory and pro-resolving signaling lipids. Clin Transl Sci 2024; 17:e13745. [PMID: 38488489 PMCID: PMC10941572 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in the lipidome of patients with sepsis to identify signaling lipids associated with poor outcomes that could be linked to future therapies. Adult patients with sepsis were enrolled within 24h of sepsis recognition. Patients meeting Sepsis-3 criteria were enrolled from the emergency department or intensive care unit and blood samples were obtained. Clinical data were collected and outcomes of rapid recovery, chronic critical illness (CCI), or early death were adjudicated by clinicians. Lipidomic analysis was performed on two platforms, the Sciex™ 5500 device to perform a lipidomic screen of 1450 lipid species and a targeted signaling lipid panel using liquid-chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. For the lipidomic screen, there were 274 patients with sepsis: 192 with rapid recovery, 47 with CCI, and 35 with early deaths. CCI and early death patients were grouped together for analysis. Fatty acid (FA) 12:0 was decreased in CCI/early death, whereas FA 17:0 and 20:1 were elevated in CCI/early death, compared to rapid recovery patients. For the signaling lipid panel analysis, there were 262 patients with sepsis: 189 with rapid recovery, 45 with CCI, and 28 with early death. Pro-inflammatory signaling lipids from ω-6 poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), including 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic (HETE), 12-HETE, and 11-HETE (oxidation products of arachidonic acid [AA]) were elevated in CCI/early death patients compared to rapid recovery. The pro-resolving lipid mediator from ω-3 PUFAs, 14(S)-hydroxy docosahexaenoic acid (14S-HDHA), was also elevated in CCI/early death compared to rapid recovery. Signaling lipids of the AA pathway were elevated in poor-outcome patients with sepsis and may serve as targets for future therapies.

Abstract
The phenomenon of chirality has been shown to greatly impact drug activities and effects. Different enantiomers may exhibit different effects in a certain biological condition or disease state. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes metabolize arachidonic acid (AA) into a large variety of metabolites with a wide range of activities. Hydroxylation of AA by CYP hydroxylases produces hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs), which are classified into mid-chain (5, 8, 9, 11, 12, and 15-HETE), subterminal (16-, 17-, 18- and 19-HETE) and terminal (20-HETE) HETEs. Except for 20-HETE, these metabolites exist as a racemic mixture of R and S enantiomers in the physiological system. The two enantiomers could have different degrees of activity or sometimes opposing effects. In this review article, we aimed to discuss the role of mid-chain and subterminal HETEs in different organs, importantly the heart and the kidneys. Moreover, we summarized their effects in some conditions such as neutrophil migration, inflammation, angiogenesis, and tumorigenesis, with a focus on the reported enantiospecific effects. We also reported some studies using genetically modified models to investigate the roles of HETEs in different conditions.

Abstract
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the world and has a high mortality rate. Colorectal adenoma (CRA) is precancerous lesions of CRC. The purpose of the present study was to construct a nomogram predictive model for CRA with low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN) in order to identify high-risk individuals, facilitating early diagnosis and treatment, and ultimately reducing the incidence of CRC. Methods We conducted a single-center case-control study. Based on the results of colonoscopy and pathology, 320 participants were divided into the CRA group and the control group, the demographic and laboratory test data were collected. A development cohort (n = 223) was used for identifying the risk factors for CRA with LGIN and to develop a predictive model, followed by an internal validation. An independent validation cohort (n = 97) was used for external validation. Receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration plot and decision curve analysis were used to evaluate discrimination ability, accuracy and clinical practicability of the model. Results Four predictors, namely sex, age, albumin and monocyte count, were included in the predictive model. In the development cohort, internal validation and external validation cohort, the area under the curve (AUC) of this risk predictive model were 0.946 (95%CI: 0.919-0.973), 0.909 (95 % CI: 0.869-0.940) and 0.928 (95%CI: 0.876-0.980), respectively, which demonstrated the model had a good discrimination ability. The calibration plots showed a good agreement and the decision curve analysis (DCA) suggested the predictive model had a high clinical net benefit. Conclusion The nomogram model exhibited good performance in predicting CRA with LGIN, which can aid in the early detection of high-risk patients, improve early treatment, and ultimately reduce the incidence of CRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The resolution of inflammation is an active phenomenon important for switching off inflammatory processes once the harmful stimuli are removed and facilitate the return to homeostasis. Specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs), such as lipoxin A4, resolvin D1, and resolvin E1, derived from ω-3 or ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids, are crucial for the resolution of inflammation. We hypothesized that SPMs are decreased in hypertension which contributes to the acetylcholine-induced contraction in resistance arteries, which are well known to be mediated by leukotrienes and prostaglandins. Moreover, treatment with SPMs will decrease this contraction via formyl peptide receptor-2 (FPR-2) in resistance arteries from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a comprehensive eicosanoid lipid panel analysis, and our data showed for the first time that precursors of SPMs are decreased in SHR, limiting the production of SPMs and resolution of inflammation in vivo. This phenomenon was associated with an increase in lipid peroxidation in resistance arteries. Although SPMs did not abolish acetylcholine-induced contraction, these lipid mediators improved endothelial function in arteries from SHR via FPR-2 activation at nanomolar concentrations. SPMs also buffered TNF-α-induced reactive oxygen species generation in endothelial cells from C57Bl/6 mice. CONCLUSIONS We suggest that FPR-2 and SPMs could be revealed as a new target or therapeutic agent to improve vascular function in arteries from hypertensive rats.

Abstract
Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs) are hydroxylated arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites that are classified into midchain, subterminal, and terminal HETEs. Hydroxylation results in the formation of R and S enantiomers for each HETE, except for 20-HETE. HETEs have multiple physiological and pathological effects. Several studies have demonstrated sex-specific differences in AA metabolism in different organs. In this study, microsomes from the heart, liver, kidney, lung, intestine, and brain of adult male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were isolated and incubated with AA. Thereafter, the enantiomers of all HETEs were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. We found significant sex- and enantiospecific differences in the formation levels of different HETEs in all organs. The majority of HETEs, especially midchain HETEs and 20-HETE, showed significantly higher formation rates in male organs. In the liver, the R enantiomer of several HETEs showed a higher formation rate than the corresponding S enantiomer (e.g., 8-, 9-, and 16-HETE). On the other hand, the brain and small intestine demonstrated a higher abundance of the S enantiomer. 19(S)-HETE was more abundant than 19(R)-HETE in all organs except the kidney. Elucidating sex-specific differences in HETE levels provides interesting insights into their physiological and pathophysiological roles and their possible implications for different diseases.

Anticancer activity and metabolic alteration in colon and prostate cancer cells by novel moxifloxacin conjugates with fatty acids. Eur J Pharmacol 2023; 940:175481. [PMID: 36566005 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2022.175481] [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: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
The positive and pro-economic trend in the management of cancer treatment is the search for the antineoplastic potential of known, widely used and safe drugs with a different clinical purpose. A good candidate seems to be moxifloxacin with broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, which as the member of the fourth generation fluoroquinolone is known to affect not only bacterial but also eukaryotic DNA topoisomerases, however at high concentration. Due to the fact that the modification of parent drug with lipid component can improve anticancer potential by increasing of bioavailability, selectivity, and cytotoxic efficiency, we evaluated the mechanisms of cytotoxic activity of novel moxifloxacin conjugates with fatty acids and verified metabolic profile in SW480, SW620 and PC3 cell lines. Our study revealed that cytotoxic potential of moxifloxacin conjugates was stronger than free moxifloxacin, moreover, they remained non-toxic to normal HaCaT cells. PC3 were more sensitive to MXF conjugates than colon cancer cells. The most promising cytotoxic activity exhibited conjugate 4m and 16m with oleic and stearic acid reducing viability of PC3 and SW620 cells. Tested conjugates activated caspases 3/7 and induced late-apoptosis, mainly in PC3 and SW620 cells. However, the most pronounced inhibition of NF-κB activation and IL-6 secretion was observed in SW480. Metabolomic analysis indicated influence of the moxifloxacin conjugates on intensity of lipid derivatives with the most successful metabolite profile in PC3. Our findings suggested the cytotoxic potential of moxifloxacin conjugates, especially with oleic and stearic acid can be beneficial in oncological therapy, including their possible anti-inflammatory and known antibacterial effect.

Abstract
Liver cancer is a malignancy developed from underlying liver disease that encompasses liver injury and metabolic disorders. The progression from these underlying liver disease to cancer is accompanied by chronic inflammatory conditions in which liver macrophages play important roles in orchestrating the inflammatory response. During this process, bioactive lipids produced by hepatocytes and macrophages mediate the inflammatory responses by acting as pro-inflammatory factors, as well as, playing roles in the resolution of inflammation conditions. Here, we review the literature discussing the roles of bioactive lipids in acute and chronic hepatic inflammation and progression to cancer.

Lipids Alterations Associated with Metformin in Healthy Subjects: An Investigation Using Mass Spectrometry Shotgun Approach. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231911478. [PMID: 36232780 PMCID: PMC9569788 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231911478] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2022] [Revised: 09/18/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Metformin is an orally effective insulin-sensitizing drug widely prescribed for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Metformin has been reported to alter lipid metabolism. However, the molecular mechanisms behind its impact on lipid metabolism remain partially explored and understood. In the current study, mass spectrometry-based lipid profiling was used to investigate the lipidomic changes in the serum of 26 healthy individuals after a single-dose intake of metformin. Samples were analyzed at five-time points: preadministration, before the maximum concentration of metformin (Cmax), Cmax, after Cmax, and 36 h post-administration. A total of 762 molecules were significantly altered between the five-time points. Based on a comparison between baseline level and Cmax, metformin significantly increased and decreased the level of 33 and 192 lipids, respectively (FDR ≤ 0.05 and fold change cutoff of 1.5). The altered lipids are mainly involved in arachidonic acid metabolism, steroid hormone biosynthesis, and glycerophospholipid metabolism. Furthermore, several lipids acted in an opposed or similar manner to metformin levels and included fatty acyls, sterol lipids, glycerolipids, and glycerophospholipids. The significantly altered lipid species pointed to fundamental lipid signaling pathways that could be linked to the pleiotropic effects of metformin in T2DM, insulin resistance, polycystic ovary syndrome, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases.

Understanding the systemic burden of disease in hidradenitis suppurativa from plasma lipidomic analysis. J Dermatol Sci 2022; 107:133-141. [PMID: 36008225 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdermsci.2022.08.005] [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: 04/11/2022] [Revised: 07/30/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory skin condition that is often considered a systemic disease due to its association with metabolic comorbidity. OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to identify differences in plasma lipidomic profiles between HS patients and control subjects. METHODS HS patients were recruited from a tertiary dermatological centre and demographic and comorbidity matched controls from the general population. A targeted lipidomic approach was performed to characterize over 700 lipid species representing 35 lipid classes/sub-classes. Linear regression models adjusted for confounding factors were used to compare the plasma lipidomic profiles of HS patients to controls. Ordinal regression models were used to study the association of lipids with disease activity and severity scores. RESULTS 60 HS patients and 73 control subjects were recruited. Differential levels (p < 0.05) of 32 lipid species in HS patients compared to controls were observed, including a decrease in the long chain base d19:1 containing ceramides, and elevation of hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HETE) and dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (DHET) oxylipins. These lipids along with several other molecules showed associations with Hurley, HS-PGA and disease activity scores. CONCLUSION This study found mild changes in plasma lipidomic profiles, consistent with previous studies showing attenuated metabolomic changes in plasma as opposed to lesional skin. However, a number of lipid species were associated with increasing activity and severity of the disease. Further, the significant lipid species within the same class showed consistent trends of increase or decrease in HS as compared to controls.

Abstract
ObjectiveGenetics and dietary factors play important roles in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the underlying mechanisms of the interactions between CRC, gene polymorphisms, and dietary fat are unclear. This review study investigated the effects of polymorphisms of arachidonate lipoxygenase (ALOX) and cyclooxygenase (COX) genes in the association between CRC and dietary fat.MethodsAll the related papers published from 2000 to 2022 were collected from different databases such as PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, and Cochran using related keywords such as colorectal cancer, ALOX, COX, polymorphism, and dietary fat. Non-English and unrelated documents were excluded.ResultsSome single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ALOX and COX genes, such as rs2228065, rs6413416, and rs4986832 in the ALOX gene, and rs689465 in the COX gene may play significant roles in the association between the risk of CRC and dietary fats. SNPs of ALOX and COX genes may influence the effects of dietary fatty acids on the risk of CRC.ConclusionSome polymorphisms of the ALOX and COX genes may have important roles in the effects of dietary fat on the risk of CRC. If future studies confirm these results, dietary recommendations for preventing colorectal cancer may be personalized based on the genotype of the ALOX and COX genes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Peroxidation and reduction of 11S- and 13S-positions on C20 and C22 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) by Escherichia coli expressing highly active arachidonate (ARA) 11S-lipoxygenase (11S-LOX) from Enhygromyxa salina with the reducing agent cysteine. RESULTS The specific activity and catalytic efficiency of ARA 11S-LOX from E. salina were 4.1- and 91-fold higher than those of only reported ARA 11S-LOX from Myxococcus xanthus, respectively. The hydroxy fatty acids (HFAs) obtained by the biotransformation of ARA, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), and docosahexanoic acid (DHA) by Escherichia coli expressing 11S-LOX from E. salina in the presence of cysteine were identified as 11S-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (11S-HETE), 11S-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (11S-HEPE), 13S-hydroxydocosapentaenoic acid (13S-HDPA), and 13S-hydroxydocosahexaenoic acid (13S-HDHA), respectively. The recombinant cells converted 3 mM of ARA, EPA, DPA, and DHA into 2.9 mM of 11S-HETE, 2.4 mM 11S-HEPE, 1. 9 mM 13S-HDPA, and 2.2 mM 13S-HDHA in 60, 80, 120, and 120 min, corresponding to productivities of 72.5, 40.4, 18.5, and 22.4 μM min-1 and conversion yields of 96.7, 80.0, 62.3, and 74.6%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS We report the highest concentrations, conversion yields, and productivities of 11S- and 13S-hydroxy fatty acids from C20- and C22-PUFAs achieved via E. coli expressing highly active E. salina 11S-LOX.

Abstract
PIK3CA mutations are amongst the most prevalent somatic mutations in cancer and are associated with resistance to first-line treatment along with low survival rates in a variety of malignancies. There is evidence that patients carrying PIK3CA mutations may benefit from treatment with acetylsalicylic acid, commonly known as aspirin, particularly in the setting of colorectal cancer. In this regard, it has been clarified that Class IA Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3K), whose catalytic subunit p110α is encoded by the PIK3CA gene, are involved in signal transduction that regulates cell cycle, cell growth, and metabolism and, if disturbed, induces carcinogenic effects. Although PI3K is associated with pro-inflammatory cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression and signaling, and COX-2 is among the best-studied targets of aspirin, the mechanisms behind this clinically relevant phenomenon are still unclear. Indeed, there is further evidence that the protective, anti-carcinogenic effect of aspirin in this setting may be mediated in a COX-independent manner. However, until now the understanding of aspirin's prostaglandin-independent mode of action is poor. This review will provide an overview of the current literature on this topic and aims to analyze possible mechanisms and targets behind the aspirin sensitivity of PIK3CA-mutated cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Eicosanoids, oxidized fatty acids that serve as cell-signaling molecules, have been broadly implicated in tumorigenesis. Here, we aimed to identify eicosanoids associated with pancreatic tumorigenesis and the cell types responsible for their synthesis. METHODS We profiled normal pancreas and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in mouse models and patient samples using mass spectrometry. We interrogated RNA sequencing datasets for eicosanoid synthase or receptor expression. Findings were confirmed by immunostaining. RESULTS In murine models, we identified elevated levels of PGD2, prostacyclin, and thromboxanes in neoplasia while PGE2, 12-HHTre, HETEs, and HDoHEs are elevated specifically in tumors. Analysis of scRNA-seq datasets suggests that PGE2 and prostacyclins are derived from fibroblasts, PGD2 and thromboxanes from myeloid cells, and PGD2 and 5-HETE from tuft cells. In patient samples, we identified a transition from PGD2 to PGE2-producing enzymes in the epithelium during the transition to PDAC, fibroblast/tumor expression of PTGIS, and myeloid/tumor cell expression of TBXAS1. CONCLUSIONS Our analyses identify key changes in eicosanoid species during pancreatic tumorigenesis and the cell types that contribute to their synthesis. Thromboxane and prostacyclin expression is conserved between animal models and human disease and may represent new druggable targets.

A Protective Role for Arachidonic Acid Metabolites against Advanced Colorectal Adenoma in a Phase III Trial of Selenium. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13113877.

Abstract
Oxylipins derived from arachidonic acid (ARA) have been implicated in the development of colorectal adenomas and colorectal cancer. The primary purpose of this work was to determine the relationship between plasma levels of oxylipins and colorectal adenoma characteristics at study entry, as well as with the development of a new adenoma during follow-up within a Phase III adenoma prevention clinical trial with selenium (Sel). Secondarily, we sought to determine whether the selenium intervention influenced plasma oxylipin levels. Four oxylipins were quantified in stored plasma samples from a subset of Sel study subjects (n = 256) at baseline and at 12-months. There were significantly lower odds of an advanced adenoma at baseline with higher prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), with an OR (95% CI) of 0.55 (0.33–0.92), and with 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) ((0.53 (0.33–0.94)); and of a large adenoma with higher PGE2 ((0.52 (0.31–0.87)). In contrast, no associations were observed between any oxylipin and the development of a new adenoma during follow-up. Selenium supplementation was associated with a significantly smaller increase in 5-HETE after 12 months compared to the placebo, though no other results were statistically significant. The ARA-derived oxylipins may have a role in the progression of non-advanced adenoma to advanced, but not with the development of a new adenoma.

(Asteraceae) over the inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in vivo. MATERIALS AND METHODS Inflammation was induced by LPS injection into air-pouches in mice, which were subsequently treated with Bac or pCA. Lavage fluid was collected from air pouches for the quantification of cellular influx via microscopy, and quantification of inflammatory mediators via colorimetric methods, ELISA and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). RESULTS LPS-induced inflammation increased cellular influx and increased the levels of parameters related to vascular permeability and edema formation, such as nitric oxide (NO) and protein extravasation. Moreover, LPS increased the levels of cytokines and eicosanoids in the air-pouches. Importantly, both Bac and pCA suppressed the infiltration of neutrophils, production of NO and protein extravasation. Notably, the compounds promote differential regulation of cytokine and eicosanoid production. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that Bac from green propolis directly affects inflammation by inhibiting the production of cytokines and eicosanoids, while pCA may exert direct, but also indirect effects on inflammation by stimulating the production of regulatory effectors such as interkeukin-10 in vivo.

Abstract
The body weight-lowering properties of a multifunctional ingredient (MIX) based on conjugated linoleic acid at low doses, the flavonoids proanthocyanidins and anthocyanidins and the chicken feet hydrolysate Hpp11 have been previously reported. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of long-term administration of MIX on other cardiometabolic risk factors associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS) in rats fed a cafeteria diet (CAF). Male Wistar rats were fed CAF for 11 weeks, and during the last 3 weeks, animals were orally administered MIX or vehicle. Lipid tolerance tests were performed before and after MIX administration. At the end of the experimental period, serum and inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT) metabolism were analyzed by metabolomics and biochemical approaches. The metabolite signature of serum and iWAT significantly changed after 3 weeks of MIX administration, suggesting an improvement in lipid and glucose homeostasis in these animals. In addition, MIX also exhibited significant antihypertensive properties. These results suggest that MIX could be a good candidate to ameliorate the cardiometabolic risk factors related to MetS.

Association of Lipid Mediators With Development of Future Incident Inflammatory Arthritis in an Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibody-Positive Population. Arthritis Rheumatol 2021; 73:955-962.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the association of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-derived lipid mediators with progression from rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-related autoimmunity to inflammatory arthritis (IA). METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study using data from the Studies of the Etiology of Rheumatoid Arthritis (SERA). SERA enrolled first-degree relatives (FDRs) of individuals with RA (FDR cohort) and individuals who screened positive for RA-related autoantibodies at health fairs (screened cohort). We followed up 133 anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide 3.1 (anti-CCP3.1)-positive participants, 29 of whom developed IA. Lipid mediators selected a priori were quantified from stored plasma samples using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. We fit multivariable Cox proportional hazards models for each lipid mediator as a time-varying variable. For lipid mediators found to be significantly associated with IA, we then examined interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) as potential statistical mediators. RESULTS For every 1 natural log pg/ml increase in the circulating plasma levels of proinflammatory 5-HETE, the risk of developing IA increased by 241% (hazard ratio 2.41 [95% confidence interval 1.43-4.07]) after adjusting for age at baseline, cohort (FDR or screened), and shared epitope status. The models examining 15-HETE and 17-HDHA had the same trend but did not reach significance. We did not find evidence that the association between 5-HETE and IA risk was influenced by the proinflammatory cytokines tested. CONCLUSION In a prospective cohort of anti-CCP-positive individuals, higher levels of 5-HETE, an important precursor to proinflammatory leukotrienes, is associated with subsequent IA. Our findings highlight the potential significance of these PUFA metabolites in pre-RA populations.
