The in vitro effects of aspirin and other non steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on 12-HETE formation were evaluated in platelet rich plasma (PRP) stimulated with collagen. Aspirin (1 X 10(-4)-1 X 10(-3) M) inhibited 12-HETE production in PRP. Inhibition of 12-HETE formation was detected also in PRP incubated with indomethacin and BW 755C. Sodium salicylate, instead, did not reduce 12-HETE synthesis. Aspirin (3 X 10(-3) M) did not modify 12-HETE synthesis in similarly challenged washed platelet (WP) preparations, inspite of its effect on the cyclooxygenase pathway. It may be concluded that aspirin and other NSAIDs, not only affect the cyclooxygenase pathway, but also inhibit 12-HETE synthesis. In addition it is shown that the 12-HETE synthesis is reduced by plasma and that this effect is enhanced in the presence of aspirin.

Article Synopsis
  • Macrophages significantly influence vascular diseases, and their function is tied to changes in metabolism, particularly in the context of diabetes.
  • Researchers identified a circular RNA called cSPECC1 that increases in diabetic conditions and affects macrophage behavior, particularly in preventing inflammation and maintaining communication with endothelial cells.
  • By manipulating cSPECC1 levels, they found it plays a crucial role in macrophage function and could be a potential target for new treatments aimed at reducing vascular issues in diabetes.

Background: Recently, serum metabolites have shown potential in predicting survival outcomes and may be related to the pathogenesis of prostate cancer. Nevertheless, the precise impact concerning the genetic effect of metabolites on prostate cancer risk remains obscure. In this context, we conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) study aiming to explore the causality between genetically determined metabolites and the risk of prostate cancer.

Article Synopsis
  • Neobavaisoflavone (NBIF) is a natural antioxidant that helps protect heart cells from damage due to oxidative stress by improving mitochondrial function.
  • In experiments, HO was used to induce oxidative stress in heart cells (H9c2), and it led to harmful effects like lipid peroxidation and mitochondrial dysfunction, which NBIF treatment countered effectively.
  • The study found that NBIF reduced harmful protein expressions related to lipid peroxidation and enhanced mitochondrial integrity, suggesting it operates through the ALOX15/PGC-1α pathway to protect heart cells.

Article Synopsis
  • - Oxylipins are important signaling lipids formed from fatty acids, playing key roles in inflammatory diseases like asthma, but traditional measurement methods may overlook their spatial distribution in tissues.
  • - New mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) techniques, specifically desorption electrospray ionization coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (DESI-MRM), have improved the sensitivity needed to detect these low-abundance compounds in lung tissues.
  • - This research developed a targeted MSI workflow to map five oxylipins in guinea pig lung extracts, discovering distinct spatial distributions that enhance our understanding of lipid metabolism in respiratory tissues.

Upregulation of ALOX12-12-HETE pathway impairs AMPK-dependent modulation of vascular metabolism in ApoE/LDLR mice.

Mitochondrial dysfunction and 12-lipoxygenase (ALOX12)-derived 12(S)-HETE production have been associated with vascular inflammation and the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. However, the role of ALOX12 in regulating vascular energy metabolism in vascular inflammation has not been studied to date. Using mitochondrial and glycolysis functional profiling with the Seahorse extracellular flux analyzer, metabolipidomics, and proteomic analysis (LC-MS/MS), we characterized alterations in vascular energy metabolism in 2- and 6-month-old ApoE/LDLR vs.
