Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in patients with renal failure. Red blood cells (RBCs) are potential reservoirs for epoxy fatty acids (oxylipins) that regulate cardiovascular function. Hemoglobin exhibits pseudo-lipoxygenase activity in vitro. We previously assessed the impact of single hemodialysis (HD) treatment on RBC epoxy fatty acids status in circulating arterial blood and found that eicosanoids in oxygenated RBCs could be particularly vulnerable in chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the differences of RBC epoxy fatty acids profiles in arterial and venous blood in vivo (AV differences) from patients treated by HD treatment. We collected arterial and venous blood samples in upper limbs from 12 end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients (age 72±12 years) before and after HD treatment. We measured oxylipins derived from cytochrome P450 (CYP) monooxygenase and lipoxygenase (LOX)/CYP ω/(ω-1)-hydroxylase pathways in RBCs by LC-MS/MS tandem mass spectrometry. Our data demonstrate arteriovenous differences in LOX pathway metabolites in RBCs after dialysis, including numerous hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs), hydroxydocosahexaenoic acids (HDHAs) and hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acids (HEPEs). We detected more pronounced changes in free metabolites in RBCs after HD, as compared with the total RBC compartment. Hemodialysis treatment did not affect the majority of CYP and CYP ω/(ω-1)-hydroxylase products in RBCs. Our data indicate that erythro-metabolites of the LOX pathway are influenced by renal-replacement therapies, which could have deleterious effects in the circulation.

Breast cancer (BC) is a common malignant tumor in women and requires a comprehensive understanding of its pathogenesis for the development of new therapeutic strategies. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) metabolism-driven inflammation is a causative factor in cancer development. However, the function of PUFAs' metabolism in BC remains largely unknown.

Article Synopsis
- - Excessive immune responses in insects can lead to self-damage and energy loss, especially in the late stages of infections; this study focused on the role of C18 oxygenated polyunsaturated fatty acids (EpOMEs) in the immune resolution of the lepidopteran insect Maruca vitrata.
- - Increased levels of two specific EpOMEs (9,10-EpOME and 12,13-EpOME) were found in larvae during late infection stages, both suppressing immune responses, with 12,13-EpOME showing stronger effects.
- - Genetic studies revealed that certain genes involved in EpOME metabolism played roles in modulating immune responses, and modifications to EpOMEs enhanced their effectiveness, offering potential

Pharmacological targeting of metabolic pathways represents an appealing strategy to selectively kill cancer cells while promoting antitumor functions of stromal cells. In this study, we assessed the effectiveness of 13 metabolic drugs (MDs) in steering generated breast tumor-educated macrophages (TEMs) toward an antitumoral phenotype. For that, the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), two important regulators of tumor progression, was evaluated.

The unsaturated lipids produced by human gut bacteria have an extraordinary range of structural diversity, largely because of the isomerism of the carbon-carbon double bond (C═C) in terms of its position and stereochemistry. Characterizing distinct C═C configurations poses a considerable challenge in research, primarily owing to limitations in current bioanalytical methodologies. This study developed a novel structural lipidomics workflow by combining MELDI (chloroperoxybenzoic acid epoxidation for lipid double-bond identification) with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for C═C characterization.
