Background: Senescence is a well-known risk factor for several diseases, such as neurodegenerative disorders. Therefore, studies exploring the mechanisms underlying aging are expected to guide the discovery of novel drug targets and biomarkers for these diseases. However, a comprehensive overview of the metabolic and lipidomic changes in healthy aging mammals is lacking. To understand the changes of metabolism with aging, especially lipid metabolism, we analyzed the metabolomes and lipidomes of the cerebral cortex, liver, femoral muscle, and epididymal fat in young and aged mice.
Results: Two-dimensional cluster analysis revealed clear separation between the metabolite profiles of the aged and young groups. Deoxydihydroceramide (doxDHCer), deoxyceramide (doxCer), and ether-linked diacylglycerol (DAG) levels were elevated during aging.
Conclusion: This is the first report of age-related variations in deoxysphingolipid and ether-linked DAG levels in mice. DoxCer, doxDHCer, and ether-linked DAGs may be associated with senescence in mammalian tissues.

: Poor metabolic control is associated with increased levels of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which in turn may lead to increased arterial stiffness. The aim of this study was to estimate the association between glycated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and aortic pulse wave velocity (a-PWV) in healthy subjects and to analyse the mediating effect of AGEs measured by skin autofluorescence (SAF) on this association. : HbA1c, a-PWV and SAF were analysed in 390 healthy Spanish subjects from the EVasCu study (42.

The purpose of this study was to determine any changes in the rectus abdominis and diaphragm muscles, which are core muscles, in children and adolescents with nocturnal enuresis (NE) using the shear wave elastography (SWE). In this case-control study, the rectus abdominis and diaphragm muscles of 40 children and adolescents with NE and 40 healthy controls were evaluated. The rectus abdominis muscle was examined at the right supra- and subumbilical levels, and the diaphragm at the right 9th-10th intercostal space.

Circulating metabolites reflecting underlying pathophysiological mechanisms warrant investigation as biomarker candidates.
Methods: Blood samples, prospectively collected within 24 hours (T1) of admission and 7-days (T2) post ictus, from patients with acute aSAH from two tertiary care centers were retrospectively analyzed.

Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diacylglycerol (DAG) edible oil intervention in patients with chronic metabolic syndrome complicated by asymptomatic hyperuricemia through a multicenter, prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial.
Methods: A multicenter, double-blind, and randomized controlled trial involving 176 patients was designed. All patients with chronic metabolic syndrome complicated by asymptomatic hyperuricemia who meet inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included in the study and will be randomized to either group A or group B.

Background: A neuroinflammatory disease such as Alzheimer's disease, presents a significant challenge in neurotherapeutics, particularly due to the complex etiology and allostatic factors, referred to as CNS stressors, that accelerate the development and progression of the disease. These CNS stressors include cerebral hypo-glucose metabolism, hyperinsulinemia, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, impairment of neuronal autophagy, hypoxic insults and neuroinflammation. This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of DAG-MAG-ΒHB, a novel ketone diester, in mitigating these risk factors by sustaining therapeutic ketosis, independent of conventional metabolic pathways.
