Coronavirus-19 (COVID-19) disease is driven by an unchecked immune response to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus which alters host mitochondrial-associated mechanisms. Compromised mitochondrial health results in abnormal reprogramming of glucose metabolism, can disrupt extracellular signalling. We hypothesized that examining energy-related signalling metabolites implicated SARS-CoV-2 infection would provide potential biomarkers for predicting risk COVID-19 illness. used a semi-targeted serum metabolomics approach 273 patients with different severity grades recruited at phase determine relative abundance tricarboxylic acid (Krebs) cycle-related known signaling properties (pyruvate, lactate, succinate and α-ketoglutarate). Abundance levels were evaluated validation cohort (n=398) using quantitative fluorimetric assays. Increased four a-ketoglutarate succinate) found critically ill targeted approaches (p<0.05). The combined strategy proposed herein enabled us establish circulating pyruvate (p<0.001) together body mass index (p=0.025), C-reactive protein (p=0.039), D-Dimer creatinine (p=0.043) levels, are independent predictors critical COVID-19. Furthermore, classification regression tree (CART) analysis provided cut-off value (24.54 µM; p<0.001) as early criterion accurately classify outcomes. Our findings support link between pathogenesis immunometabolic dysregulation, show fluorometric quantification cost-effective clinical decision tool improve patient stratification prognosis prediction.

Succinate, traditionally viewed as a mere intermediate of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, has emerged critical mediator in inflammation. Disruptions within TCA cycle lead to an accumulation succinate mitochondrial matrix. This excess subsequently diffuses into cytosol and is released extracellular space. Elevated cytosolic levels stabilize hypoxia-inducible factor-1α by inhibiting prolyl hydroxylases, which enhances inflammatory responses. Notably, also acts extracellularly signaling molecule engaging receptor 1 on immune cells, thus modulating their pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory activities. Alterations have been associated with various disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis, bowel disease, obesity, atherosclerosis. These associations are primarily due exaggerated cell Given its central role inflammation, targeting pathways offers promising therapeutic avenues for these diseases. paper provides extensive review succinate's involvement processes highlights potential targets future research possibilities development.

Beyond their conventional roles in intracellular energy production, some traditional metabolites also function as extracellular messengers that activate cell-surface G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) akin to hormones and neurotransmitters. These signalling metabolites, often derived from nutrients, the gut microbiota or host's intermediary metabolism, are now acknowledged key regulators of various metabolic immune responses. This review delves into multi-dimensional aspects succinate, a dual metabolite with roots both mitochondria microbiome.

SUCNR1 is an auto- and paracrine sensor of the metabolic stress signal succinate. Using unsupervised molecular dynamics (MD) simulations (170.400 ns) mutagenesis across human, mouse, rat SUCNR1, we characterize how a five-arginine motif around extracellular pole TM-VI determines initial capture succinate in vestibule (ECV) to either stay or move down orthosteric site. Metadynamics demonstrate low-energy binding both sites, with energy barrier corresponding intermediate stage during which succinate, associated water cluster, unlocks hydrogen-bond-stabilized conformationally constrained loop (ECL)-2b. Importantly, simultaneous two molecules through "sequential" "bypassing" mode frequent endpoint. The mono-carboxylate NF-56-EJ40 antagonist enters between TM-I -II does not unlock ECL-2b.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the gastrointestinal tract and characterized by immune dysregulation. Oral administration of nanoformulations containing immunomodulators desirable approach to treating UC. However, low drug-loading (<10%, typically), premature drug release, systemic absorption these continue be significant challenges restricting clinical applications. Herein, we developed colon-targeted piperine-glycyrrhizic acid nanocrystals (ES100-PIP/GA NCs) treat UC through regulation macrophages. The ES100-PIP/GA NCs exhibited ultra-high loading colon-specific release. In vitro studies demonstrated could effectively internalized lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 Caco-2 cells. More importantly, downregulate pro-inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-17A), upregulate anti-inflammatory (TGF-β1), repair intestinal mucosal barrier. murine model acute induced dextran sodium sulfate (DSS), protect PIP GA from gastric destruction, reach colon, significantly inhibit colitis. Surprisingly, enhance M2 macrophages increasing mammalian target rapamycin (mTOR), M1 reducing hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). Overall, this study shows have synergistic immunotherapy capabilities with macrophage regulation, which offers promising blueprint for oral delivery multicomponent drugs in therapy.

Pancreatic β-cell dysfunction is a key feature of type 2 diabetes, and novel regulators insulin secretion are desirable. Here we report that the succinate receptor (SUCNR1) expressed in β-cells up-regulated hyperglycemic states mice humans. We found acts as hormone-like metabolite stimulates via SUCNR1-Gq-PKC-dependent mechanism human β-cells. Mice with β-cell-specific Sucnr1 deficiency exhibit impaired glucose tolerance on high-fat diet, indicating SUCNR1 essential for preserving diet-induced resistance. Patients show an enhanced nutritional-related response, which correlates potentiation during intravenous administration. These data demonstrate succinate/SUCNR1 axis activated by high identify GPCR-mediated amplifying pathway relevant to hyperinsulinemia prediabetic states.
