Metabolomics profiling and bioinformatics technologies were used to determine the relationship between exercise-induced increases in IL-6 and lipid-related metabolites. Twenty-four male runners (age 36.5 ± 1.8 y) ran on treadmills to exhaustion (2.26 ± 0.01 h, 24.9 ± 1.3 km, 69.7 ± 1.9% VO). Vastus lateralis muscle biopsy and blood samples were collected before and immediately after running and showed a 33.7 ± 4.2% decrease in muscle glycogen, 39.0 ± 8.8-, 2.4 ± 0.3-, and 1.4 ± 0.1-fold increases in plasma IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1, respectively, and 95.0 ± 18.9 and 158 ± 20.6% increases in cortisol and epinephrine, respectively (all, P < 0.001). The metabolomics analysis revealed changes in 209 metabolites, especially long- and medium-chain fatty acids, fatty acid oxidation products (dicarboxylate and monohydroxy fatty acids, acylcarnitines), and ketone bodies. OPLS-DA modeling supported a strong separation in pre- and post-exercise samples (R2Y = 0.964, Q2Y = 0.902). OPLSR analysis failed to produce a viable model for the relationship between IL-6 and all lipid-related metabolites (R2Y = 0.76, Q2Y = -0.0748). Multiple structure equation models were evaluated based on IL-6, with the best-fit pathway model showing a linkage of exercise time to IL-6, then carnitine, and 13-methylmyristic acid (a marker for adipose tissue lipolysis) and sebacate. These metabolomics-based data indicate that the increase in plasma IL-6 after long endurance running has a minor relationship to increases in lipid-related metabolites.

Monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG), as the primary lipid component of thylakoid membranes, has a significant part in plant growth and stress response. The current study employed two transgenic wheat lines (MG1516 and MG1314) overexpressing the MGDG synthase gene (TaMGD) and wild-type cv "JW1" to explore the function of TaMGD in response to high temperature stress during the anthesis stage of wheat. Under high-temperature stress, the overexpressed wheat lines exhibited higher grain weight, increased antioxidant enzyme activity, and lower HO and malondialdehyde contents in leaves.

Pregnant ewes mobilize body fat to increase energy supply for fetal growth and development upon undernutrition, which disrupts the metabolic homeostasis of the body. However, the comprehensive metabolic changes in subcutaneous adipose tissue upon undernutrition are poorly understood. In this study, an undernutrition sheep model was established to investigate the effects of undernutrition on metabolic changes, immune response, and inflammation in subcutaneous fat through transcriptome, RT-qPCR, and metabolome analysis.

Salinity and light markedly influence cyanobacterial viability. High salinity disrupts the osmotic balance, while excess light energy affects redox potential in the cells. Regulating the ratio of saturated and unsaturated alka(e)ne and fatty acids in cyanobacteria is thought to have crucial roles in coping with these stresses by regulating membrane fluidity.

The study explored the ecotoxicological effects of chronic exposure to microplastic (MP) on adult zebrafish, focusing on environmentally relevant concentrations of polyethylene (PE) beads and polyester (PES). High-throughput untargeted metabolomics via UPLC-QToF-MS and 16S metagenomics for gut microbiota analysis were used to assess ecotoxicity in zebrafish exposed to varying concentrations of PE and PES. The VIP (Variable Importance in Projection) scores indicated PE exposure primarily impacted phospholipids, ceramides, and nucleotide-related compounds, while PES exposure led to alterations in lipid-related compounds, chitin, and amino acid derivatives.
