Published: June 2018

Purpose Of Review: The purpose of this review is to highlight recent evidence with respect to expression and metabolomic profiling in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) that included ankylosing spondylitis (AS).

Recent Findings: AxSpA is not only characterized by the strongest genetic contribution for any complex rheumatic disease but is also influenced by environmental and immunological factors. Large-scale association-based studies have identified over 100 genetic variants contributing to 30% of the genetic risk of ankylosing spondylitis. Recent studies in global expression and metabolomic profiling appear to highlight common themes despite differences in tissues, populations, techniques, and relative paucity of patients in many of these studies. Expression studies support a role for immunomodulation and bone remodeling in the pathogenesis and progression of axSpA/AS, while metabolomic studies implicate the importance of the intestinal microbial metabolism as well as fat and choline metabolic pathways in AS.

: The mechanism of polysaccharide-based nanocarriers in enhancing photodynamic immunotherapy in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains poorly understood. : The effects of TPA-3BCP-loaded cholesteryl hemisuccinate- polysaccharide nanoparticles (DOP@3BCP NPs) and their potential molecular mechanism of action in a tumor-bearing mouse model of CRC were investigated using non-targeted metabolomics and transcriptomics. Meanwhile, a histopathological analysis (H&E staining, Ki67 staining, and TUNEL assay) and a qRT-PCR analysis revealed the antitumor effects of DOP@3BCP NPs with and without light activation.

The breadth and depth of plant leaf metabolomes have been implicated in key interactions with plant enemies aboveground. In particular, divergence in plant species chemical composition-amongst neighbors, relatives, or both-is often suggested as a means of escape from insect herbivore enemies. Plants also experience strong pressure from enemies such as belowground pathogens; however, little work has been carried out to examine the evolutionary trajectories of species' specialized chemistries in both roots and leaves.
