CPT1A modulates PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway to promote preeclampsia

Miaomiao Chen et al.

Summary: This study found that Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) was upregulated in preeclamptic placentas and its abnormal expression in HTR8/SVneo cells was associated with cell invasion and migration, but not proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis. The results also revealed that CPT1A inhibits the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process of HTR8/SVneo cells through the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, thus participating in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia.

Increasing maternal age associates with lower placental CPT1B mRNA expression and acylcarnitines, particularly in overweight women

Hannah E. J. Yong et al.

Summary: Older pregnant women have increased risks of complications including gestational diabetes and stillbirth. This study investigates the decline in the expression of the enzyme CPT1B in the placenta with age and its association with placental acylcarnitine synthesis. The findings suggest that the age-related decline in CPT1B may contribute to pregnancy complications in older women, particularly if they are overweight.

Pre-eclampsia

Evdokia Dimitriadis et al.

Summary: Pre-eclampsia is a life-threatening disease unique to humans during pregnancy and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality for mothers and newborns. Survivors of pre-eclampsia have an increased risk of stroke, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes, while babies from pre-eclamptic pregnancies are at greater risk of preterm birth, perinatal death, neurodevelopmental disability, and cardiovascular and metabolic diseases later in life.

The Role of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors in Preeclampsia

Iason Psilopatis et al.

Summary: Preeclampsia is a common hypertensive disorder in pregnancy, and PPARs play a significant role in its pathophysiology. Studies have shown contradictory conclusions regarding PPAR expression in preeclamptic placentae, but PPAR gamma agonists have been identified as a novel and potent anti-preeclamptic treatment option.

Evidence that Oxidative Disbalance and Mitochondrial Dysfunction are Involved in the Pathophysiology of Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorders

Graziela Schmitt Ribas et al.

Summary: Mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation disorders (FAODs) are a group of diseases caused by specific gene mutations that affect the transport and oxidation of fatty acids in mitochondria. Patients with FAODs experience symptoms such as liver disease, cardiomyopathy, severe muscle weakness, and neuropathy, which are believed to be related to both energy deficiency and toxic effects of accumulated fatty acids and carnitine derivatives. This review aims to provide evidence from scientific literature on the role of oxidative damage and mitochondrial dysfunction in the pathogenesis of the most prevalent FAODs. It is expected that the findings from this review will contribute to a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of these diseases.

Summary: This study identified distinct newborn screen metabolic patterns among newborns affected by maternal hypertensive disorders or diabetes, reflecting the conditions of the mothers during pregnancy. Newborn metabolic health is heavily impacted by the maternal conditions during pregnancy, and utilizing newborn screen can help identify affected newborns for risk stratification and intervention.

Integrated Metabolomic and Lipidomic Analysis in the Placenta of Preeclampsia

Lizi Zhang et al.

Summary: Preeclampsia, a common severe complication in pregnancy, is a placental source disease with unknown mechanisms. This study used metabolomic and lipidomic analysis to identify characteristic placental metabolites in preeclampsia. The perturbations in metabolism were primarily associated with glycerophospholipid and glutathione metabolism. Findings suggest that metabolomics and lipidomics could provide valuable insights into the understanding and molecular mechanisms of preeclampsia.

Evangelia Panagodimou et al.

Summary: This study assessed the expression stability of three commonly used reference genes (ACTB, 18S, and GAPDH) in placental tissue obtained from pregnant women with PCOS and healthy controls. The results showed that ACTB was the most stable gene, followed by 18S, while the expression of GAPDH varied considerably and was increased in PCOS.

Summary: This study found a positive correlation between antiangiogenic factors and levels of triglyceride, free fatty acid, and C-peptide in maternal serum, but no relationship with placental lipid metabolism parameters. Free fatty acids were predictive of elevated sFlt-1 and sEng, while C-peptide was predictive of an elevated sFlt1/PlGF ratio.

Summary: Uniform departmental management protocols should be maintained for managing hypertensive pregnant women, and regular audits of maternal and fetal outcomes should be conducted. The cause and optimal clinical management of pre-eclampsia and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy remain uncertain, therefore, it is recommended that every hypertensive pregnant woman be given the opportunity to participate in research, clinical trials, and follow-up studies.

Summary: Maternal overnutrition can affect fetal growth and increase the risk of obesity and diabetes in offspring. Placental fatty acid metabolism is important in pregnancy and fetal health. Placental fatty acid beta-oxidation (FAO) may regulate the effects of maternal overnutrition on glucose metabolism in offspring through the AMPK signaling pathway.

Summary: This review focuses on the mechanisms by which nuclear receptors mediate transcriptional responses, with a specific emphasis on the role of PPARγ in regulating blood pressure. Genetic and clinical trial data demonstrate the importance of PPARγ in hypertension, and the tissue- and cell-specific molecular mechanisms by which PPARs modulate blood pressure and related phenotypes are detailed. The role of placental PPARs in preeclampsia is also discussed, along with future research directions and implications for novel therapies.

Placental Compartmentalization of Lipid Metabolism: Implications for Singleton and Twin Pregnancies

Alejandra Abascal-Saiz et al.

Summary: The study found that the maternal side of the placenta is more active in esterification of fatty acids, while storage of neutral lipids primarily occurs on the fetal side. In multiple gestations, there is increased esterification activity without changes in placental triglyceride levels, likely due to greater transfer to the fetal circulation in response to higher energy demand from twin fetuses.
