Wang C, Han Y, Li X. Glypican-1 may be a plasma biomarker for predicting the rupture of small intracranial aneurysms. J Proteomics 2024; 293:105060. [PMID: 38154549 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2023.105060] [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: 08/28/2023] [Revised: 12/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023]
Abstract
Currently, there are no effective methods for predicting the rupture of asymptomatic small intracranial aneurysms (IA) (<7 mm). In this study the aim was to identify early warning biomarkers in peripheral plasma for predicting IA rupture. Four experimental groups were included: ruptured intracranial aneurysm (RIA), unruptured intracranial aneurysm (UIA), traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage control (tSAHC), and healthy control (HC) groups. Plasma proteomics of these four groups were detected using iTRAQ combined LC-MS/MS. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in RIA, UIA, tSAHC compared with HC. Target proteins associated with aneurysm rupture were obtained by comparing the DEPs of the RIA and UIA groups after filtering out the DEPs of the tSAHC group. The plasma concentrations of target proteins were validated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The iTRAQ analysis showed a significant increase in plasma GPC1 concentration in the RIA group compared to the UIA group, which was further validated among the IA patients. Logistic regression analysis identified GPC1 as an independent risk factor for predicting aneurysm rupture. The ROC curve indicated that the GPC1 plasma cut-off value for predicting aneurysms rupture was 4.99 ng/ml. GPC1 may be an early warning biomarker for predicting the rupture of small intracranial aneurysms. SIGNIFICANCE: The current management approach for asymptomatic small intracranial aneurysms (<7 mm) is limited to conservative observation and surgical intervention. However, the decision-making process regarding these options poses a dilemma due to weighing their respective advantages and disadvantages. Currently, there is a lack of effective diagnostic methods to predict the rupture of small aneurysms. Therefore, our aim is to identify early warning biomarkers in peripheral plasma that can serve as quantitative detection markers for predicting intracranial aneurysm rupture. In this study, four experimental populations were established: small ruptured intracranial aneurysm (sRIA) group, small unruptured intracranial aneurysm (sUIA) group, traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage control (tSAHC) group, and healthy control (HC) group. The tSAH group was the control group of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by ruptured aneurysm. Compared with patients with UIA, aneurysm tissue and plasma GPC1 in patients with RIA is significantly higher, and GPC1 may be an early warning biomarker for predicting the rupture of intracranial small aneurysms.

Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2024; 1870:166919. [PMID: 38251428 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2023.166919] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is typically asymptomatic but a devastating cardiovascular disorder, with overall mortality exceeding 80 % once it ruptures. Some patients with AAA may also have comorbid metabolic syndrome (MS), suggesting a potential common underlying pathogenesis. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been reported as a key factor contributing to the deterioration of both AAA and MS. However, the intricate interplay between metabolism and mitochondrial function, both contributing to the development of AAA, has not been thoroughly explored. In this study, we identified candidate genes related to mitochondrial function in AAA and MS. Subsequently, we developed a nomoscore model comprising hub genes (PINK1, ACSL1, CYP27A1, and SLC25A11), identified through the application of two machine learning algorithms, to predict AAA. We observed a marked disparity in immune infiltration profiles between high- and low-nomoscore groups. Furthermore, we confirmed a significant upregulation of the expression of the four hub genes in AAA tissues. Among these, ACSL1 showed relatively higher expression in LPS-treated RAW264.7 cell lines, while CYP27A1 exhibited a notable decrease. Moreover, SLC25A11 displayed a significant upregulation in AngII-treated VSMCs. Conversely, the expression level of PINK1 declined in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cell lines but significantly increased in AngII-treated VSMCs. In vivo experiments revealed that the activation of PINK1-mediated mitophagy inhibited the development of AAA in mice. In this current study, we have innovatively identified four mitochondrial function-related genes through integrated bioinformatic analysis. This discovery sheds light on the regulatory mechanisms and unveils promising therapeutic targets for the comorbidity of AAA and MS.

Vitamin C injection improves antioxidant stress capacity through regulating blood metabolism in post-transit yak. Sci Rep 2023; 13:10233. [PMID: 37353533 PMCID: PMC10290073 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-36779-w] [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: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 06/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Transportation stress is one of the most serious issues in the management of yak. Previous studies have demonstrated that transport stress is caused by a pro-oxidant state in the animal resulting from an imbalance between pro-oxidant and antioxidant status. In this context, vitamin C has the ability to regulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) synthesis and alleviate oxidative stress. Although this effect of vitamin C is useful in pigs, goats and cattle, the effect of vitamin C on the mitigation of transport stress in yaks is still unclear. The purpose of this study was to better assess the metabolic changes induced by the action of vitamin C in yaks under transportation stress, and whether these changes can influence antioxidant status. After the yaks arrived at the farm, control or baseline blood samples were collected immediately through the jugular vein (VC_CON). Then, 100 mg/kg VC was injected intramuscularly, and blood samples were collected on the 10th day before feeding in the morning (VC). Relative to the control group, the VC injection group had higher levels of VC. Compared with VC_CON, VC injection significantly (P < 0.05) decreased the blood concentrations of ALT, AST, T-Bil, D-Bil, IDBIL, UREA, CRP and LDH. However, VC injection led to greater (P < 0.05) AST/ALT and CREA-S relative to VC_CON. There was no difference (P > 0.05) in GGT, ALP, TBA, TP, ALBII, GLO, A/G, TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, GLU and L-lactate between VC_CON and VC. The injection of VC led to greater (P < 0.05) concentration of MDA, but did not alter (P > 0.05) the serum concentrations of LPO and ROS. The injection of VC led to greater (P < 0.05) serum concentrations of POD, CAT and GSH-PX. In contrast, lower (P < 0.05) serum concentrations of SOD, POD and TPX were observed in VC relative to VC_CON. No difference (P > 0.05) in GSH, GSH-ST and GR was observed between VC_CON and VC. Compared with the control group, metabolomics using liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry identified 156 differential metabolites with P < 0.05 and a variable importance in projection (VIP) score > 1.5 in the VC injection group. The injection of VC resulted in significant changes to the intracellular amino acid metabolism of glutathione, glutamate, cysteine, methionine, glycine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, tryptophan, alanine and aspartate. Overall, our study indicated that VC injections were able to modulate antioxidant levels by affecting metabolism to resist oxidative stress generated during transport.

Abstract
This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of post-transportation vitamin E (VE) supplementation on health condition, blood biochemical parameters, blood antioxidant indices and blood metabolomics in yak. Five yaks were used in this study. After 2100 km of highway transportation from Riwoqe county to Rongchang County, Chongqing, blood was collected immediately after arrival and these samples served as the baseline (control, CON_VE). A VE injection (40 mg/kg) was then performed and blood samples were collected 10 days later. Injection of VE led to lower serum VE concentration. Relative to the CON_VE, VE injection led to greater concentrations of creatinine and lower concentrations of glutamate pyruvic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, indirect bilirubin, direct bilirubin, UREA and glucose. Compared with CON_VE, VE injection led the lower serum level of malondialdehydeand greater serum level of glutathione s-transferase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase and glutathione peroxidase 4. Based on metabolomics analysis, 119 differentially altered serum metabolites (P<0.05 and VIP>1.0) were identified with VE injection relative to CON_VE. VE injection resulted in changes of lysophosphatidylethanolamine, lysophosphatidylcholine, phosphocholine, choline, malate, citrate, α-Oxo-glutarate, phenylalanine, 3-Phenylpropanoic acid and 3-(3-Hydroxyphenyl) propanoic acid. These metabolites are associated with lipid metabolism, tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative stress. Overall, our study indicates that VE injection can alleviate transportation stress in yak partly through protecting liver and kidney, and improving antioxidant defense systems.

T lymphocyte-derived extracellular vesicles aggravate abdominal aortic aneurysm by promoting macrophage lipid peroxidation and migration via pyruvate kinase muscle isozyme 2. Redox Biol 2022; 50:102257. [PMID: 35149342 PMCID: PMC8842084 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2022.102257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2021] [Revised: 01/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2022] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
T lymphocyte and macrophage infiltration in the aortic wall is critical for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). However, how T lymphocytes interact with macrophages in the pathogenesis of AAA remains largely uncharacterized. In an elastase-induced murine AAA model, we first found that the expression of pyruvate kinase muscle isozyme 2 (PKM2), the last rate-limiting enzyme in glycolysis, was increased in infiltrated T lymphocytes of vascular lesions. T lymphocyte-specific PKM2 deficiency in mice (LckCrePKM2fl/fl) or intraperitoneal administration of the sphingomyelinase inhibitor GW4869 caused a significant attenuation of the elastase-increased aortic diameter, AAA incidence, elastic fiber disruption, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) expression, and macrophage infiltration in the vascular adventitia compared with those in PKM2fl/fl mice. Mechanistically, extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from PKM2-activated T lymphocytes elevated macrophage iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and migration in vitro, while macrophages treated with EVs from PKM2-null T lymphocytes or pretreated with the lipid peroxidation inhibitors ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), liproxstatin-1 (Lip-1), or the iron chelating agent deferoxamine mesylate (DFOM) reversed these effects. In vascular lesions of elastase-induced LckCrePKM2fl/fl mice with AAA, the oxidant system weakened, with downregulated 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) levels and strengthened antioxidant defense systems with upregulated glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and cystine/glutamate antiporter solute carrier family 7 member 11 (Slc7a11) expressions in macrophages. High-throughput metabolomics showed that EVs derived from PKM2-activated T lymphocytes contained increased levels of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-containing phospholipids, which may provide abundant substrates for lipid peroxidation in target macrophages. More importantly, upregulated T lymphocyte PKM2 expression was also found in clinical AAA subjects, and EVs isolated from AAA patient plasma enhanced macrophage iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and migration ex vivo. Therefore, from cell-cell crosstalk and metabolic perspectives, the present study shows that PKM2-activated T lymphocyte-derived EVs may drive AAA progression by promoting macrophage redox imbalance and migration, and targeting the T lymphocyte-EV-macrophage axis may be a potential strategy for early warning and treating AAA.

Abstract
Circulating biomarkers have been recently investigated among patients undergoing endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Considering the plethora of small descriptive studies reporting potential associations between biomarkers and clinical outcomes, this review aims to summarize the current literature considering both the treated disease (post EVAR) and the untreated disease (AAA before EVAR). All studies describing outcomes of tissue biomarkers in patients undergoing EVAR and in patients with AAA were included, and references were checked for additional sources. In the EVAR scenario, circulating interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a marker of inflammatory reaction which might predict postoperative morbidity; cystatin C is a promising early marker of post-procedural acute kidney injury; plasma matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) concentration after 3 months from EVAR might help in detecting post-procedural endoleak. This review also summarizes the current gaps in knowledge and future direction of this field of research. Among markers used in patients with AAA, galectin and granzyme appear to be promising and should be carefully investigated even in the EVAR setting. Larger prospective trials are required to establish and evaluate prognostic models with highest values with these markers.

Abstract
High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) plays a protective role in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA); however, recent findings suggest that oxidative modifications could lead to dysfunctional HDL in AAA. This study aimed at testing the effect of oxidized HDL on aortic lesions and humoral immune responses in a mouse model of AAA induced by elastase, and evaluating whether antibodies against modified HDL can be found in AAA patients. HDL particles were oxidized with malondialdehyde (HDL-MDA) and the changes were studied by biochemical and proteomics approaches. Experimental AAA was induced in mice by elastase perfusion and then mice were treated with HDL-MDA, HDL or vehicle for 14 days. Aortic lesions were studied by histomorphometric analysis. Levels of anti-HDL-MDA IgG antibodies were measured by an in-house immunoassay in the mouse model, in human tissue-supernatants and in plasma samples from the VIVA cohort. HDL oxidation with MDA was confirmed by enhanced susceptibility to diene formation. Proteomics demonstrated the presence of MDA adducts on Lysine residues of HDL proteins, mainly ApoA-I. MDA-modification of HDL abrogated the protective effect of HDL on cultured endothelial cells as well as on AAA dilation in mice. Exposure to HDL-MDA elicited an anti-HDL-MDA IgG response in mice. Anti-HDL-MDA were also detected in tissue-conditioned media from AAA patients, mainly in intraluminal thrombus. Higher plasma levels of anti-HDL-MDA IgG antibodies were found in AAA patients compared to controls. Anti-HDL-MDA levels were associated with smoking and were independent predictors of overall mortality in AAA patients. Overall, MDA-oxidized HDL trigger a specific humoral immune response in mice. Besides, antibodies against HDL-MDA can be detected in tissue and plasma of AAA patients, suggesting its potential use as surrogate stable biomarkers of oxidative stress in AAA.
