Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypoxemia is a physiological manifestation of immature respiratory control in preterm neonates, which is likely impacted by neurotransmitter imbalances. We investigated relationships between plasma levels of the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT), metabolites of tryptophan (TRP), and parameters of hypoxemia in preterm neonates. METHODS TRP, 5-HT, 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), and kynurenic acid (KA) were analyzed in platelet-poor plasma at ~1 week and ~1 month of life from a prospective cohort of 168 preterm neonates <31 weeks gestational age (GA). Frequency of intermittent hypoxemia (IH) events and percent time hypoxemic (<80%) were analyzed in a 6 h window after the blood draw. RESULTS At 1 week, infants with detectable plasma 5-HT had fewer IH events (OR (95% CI) = 0.52 (0.29, 0.31)) and less percent time <80% (OR (95% CI) = 0.54 (0.31, 0.95)) compared to infants with undetectable 5-HT. A similar relationship occurred at 1 month. At 1 week, infants with higher KA showed greater percent time <80% (OR (95% CI) = 1.90 (1.03, 3.50)). TRP, 5-HIAA or KA were not associated with IH frequency at either postnatal age. IH frequency and percent time <80% were positively associated with GA < 29 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Circulating neuromodulators 5-HT and KA might represent biomarkers of immature respiratory control contributing to hypoxemia in preterm neonates. IMPACT Hypoxemia events are frequent in preterm infants and are associated with poor outcomes. Mechanisms driving hypoxemia such as immature respiratory control may include central and peripheral imbalances in modulatory neurotransmitters. This study found associations between the plasma neuromodulators serotonin and kynurenic acid and parameters of hypoxemia in preterm neonates. Imbalances in plasma biomarkers affecting respiratory control may help identify neonates at risk of short- and long-term adverse outcomes.

Abstract
Hypercaloric diets overactivate the intestinal immune system and disrupt the microbiome and epithelial cell functions, impairing glucose metabolism. The origins of this inflammatory cascade are poorly characterized. We investigated the involvement of intestinal proinflammatory group 1 innate lymphoid cells (ILC1s) in obesity progression and metabolic disruption. In obese mice, we studied longitudinally the ILC1s response to the diet and ILC1s depletion to address its role in obesity. ILC1s are required for the expansion of pro-inflammatory macrophages and ILC2s. ILC1s depletion induced the ILC3-IL-22 pathway, increasing mucin production, antimicrobial peptides, and neuroendocrine cells. These changes were translated into higher gut hormones and reduced insulinemia and adiposity. ILC1s depletion was also associated with a bloom in Akkermansia muciniphila and decreases in Bilophila spp. Intestinal-ILC1s are upstream activators of inflammatory signals, connecting immunity with the microbiome, the enteroendocrine system, and the intestinal barrier in the control of glucose metabolism and adiposity.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, relapsing noninfectious inflammatory condition of the intestinal tract with two main phenotypes, ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), and globally increasing incidence and prevalence. Nearly 80% of the IBD patients with active disease and 50% of those with inactive disease suffer fatigue with significant impairment of their quality of life. Fatigue has been associated with multiple factors in IBD patients but, in most cases, no direct cause can be identified, and risk factors in clinically quiescent IBD are contradictory. Furthermore, as the assessment of fatigue is subjective, there is an unmet clinical need for fatigue biomarkers. In this explorative study, we analyzed the plasma lipidomic profiles of 47 quiescent UC and CD patients (23 fatigued, 24 nonfatigued) using ultraperformance liquid chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOFMS). The results showed changes in lipids associated with fatigue and IBD. Significantly decreased levels of phosphatidylcholines, plasmanyls, sphingomyelins, lysophosphatidylcholines, phosphatidylethanolamines, phosphatidylinositols, phosphatidylserines, and eicosanoids were observed in patients with fatigue. Network and metabolic pathway analysis indicated a dysregulation of the arachidonic acid and glycerophospholipid metabolisms and the sphingolipid pathway. The protein-metabolite interaction network showed interactions between functionally related metabolites and proteins, displaying 40 disease-associated hidden proteins including ABDH4, GLTP, and LCAT.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The design of training programs for football players is not straightforward due to intra- and inter-individual variability that leads to different physiological responses under similar training loads. OBJECTIVE To study the association between the external load, defined by variables obtained using electronic performance tracking systems (EPTS), and the urinary metabolome as a surrogate of the metabolic adaptation to training. METHODS Urine metabolic and EPTS data from 80 professional football players collected in an observational longitudinal study were analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry and assessed by partial least squares (PLS) regression. RESULTS PLS models identified steroid hormone metabolites, hypoxanthine metabolites, acetylated amino acids, intermediates in phenylalanine metabolism, tyrosine, tryptophan metabolites, and riboflavin among the most relevant variables associated with external load. Metabolic network analysis identified enriched pathways including steroid hormone biosynthesis and metabolism of tyrosine and tryptophan. The ratio of players showing a deviation from the PLS model of adaptation to exercise was higher among those who suffered a muscular lesion compared to those who did not. CONCLUSIONS There was a significant association between the external load and the urinary metabolic profile, with alteration of biochemical pathways associated with long-term adaptation to training. Future studies should focus on the validation of these findings and the development of metabolic models to identify professional football players at risk of developing muscular injuries.

Abstract
Using high definition (HD) and ultra-high definition (UHD) of Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic imaging, we characterized spectrally pulmonary metastases in a murine model of breast cancer comparing them with histopathological results (Hematoxylin and eosin [H&E] staining). This comparison showed excellent agreement between the methods in case of localization of metastases with size below 1 mm and revealed that label-free HD and UHD IR spectral histopathology distinguish the type of neoplastic cells. We primary focused on differentiation between metastatic foci in the pleural cavity from cancer cells present in lung parenchyma and inflamed cells present in extracellular matrix of lungs due to growing of advanced metastases. In addition, a combination of unsupervised clustering and IR imaging indicated the high sensitivity of FTIR spectroscopy to identify chemical features of small macrometastases located under the pleural cavity and during epithelial-mesenchymal transition. FTIR-based spectral histopathology was proved to detect not only phases of breast cancer metastasis to lungs but also to differentiate various origins of metastases seeded from breast cancer.

Abstract
Liver biopsy is currently the only reliable method to establish nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) severity. However, this technique is invasive and occasionally associated with severe complications. Thus, non-invasive diagnostic markers for NAFLD are needed. Former studies have postulated 18 different serum microRNA biomarkers with altered levels in NAFLD patients. In the present study, we have re-examined the predictive value of these serum microRNAs and found that 9 of them (miR-34a, -192, -27b, -122, -22, -21, -197, -30c and -16) associated to NAFLD severity in our independent cohort. Moreover, miR-192, -27b, -22, -197 and -30c appeared specific for NAFLD, when compared with patients with drug-induced liver injury. Preliminary serum RNAseq analysis allowed identifying novel potential miRNA biomarkers for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The classification performance of validated miRNAs (and their ratios) for NASH was better than that reached by AST, whereas for advanced fibrosis prediction miRNAs did not perform better than the FIB-4 algorithm. Cross-validated models combining both clinical and miRNA variables showed enhanced predictivity. In conclusion, the circulating microRNAs validated demonstrate a better diagnostic potential than conventional serum markers to identify NASH patients and could complement and improve current fibrosis prediction algorithms. The research in this field is still open.
