Excessive accumulation and release of fatty acids (FAs) in adipose non-adipose tissue are characteristic obesity associated with the leading causes death worldwide. Chronic exposure to high concentrations FAs such as palmitic acid (pal) is a risk factor for developing different neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) through several mechanisms. In brain, astrocytic dysregulation plays an essential role detrimental processes like metabolic inflammatory state, oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum autophagy impairment. Evidence shows that tibolone, synthetic steroid, induces neuroprotective effects, but its molecular mechanisms upon pal remain largely unknown. Due capacity identifying changes whole data-set proteins their interaction allowing deeper understanding, we used proteomic approach on normal human astrocytes under supraphysiological levels model induce cytotoxicity, finding expression related translation, transport, autophagy, apoptosis. Additionally, tibolone pre-treatment showed protective effects by restoring those same pal-altered increasing from cell survival processes. Interestingly, ARF3 IPO7 were identified relevant proteins, presenting weight protein-protein network significant differences levels. These transport translation processes, was restored tibolone. This work suggests damage caused simultaneously involves can partially revert, making interesting further research understand how modulate these damages.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and Alzheimer’s diseases (AD) represent major health issues that have reached alarming levels in the last decades. Although growing evidence demonstrates AD is a significant comorbidity of T2D, there ~1.4–2-fold increase risk developing among T2D patients, involvement possible common triggers pathogenesis these two remains largely unknown. Of note, recent mechanistic insights suggest lipotoxicity could missing ring pathogenetic mechanisms linking to AD. Indeed, obesity, which represents main cause lipotoxicity, has been recognized as factor for both pathological conditions. Lipotoxicity can lead inflammation, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, ceramide amyloid accumulation, endoplasmic reticulum ferroptosis, autophagy, are shared biological events In current review, we try provide critical comprehensive view molecular pathways activated by AD, attempting summarize how drive future research open way new therapeutic perspectives.

Protein lipidation is a common post-translational modification of proteins that plays an important role in human physiology and pathology. One form protein lipidation, S-palmitoylation, involves the addition 16-carbon fatty acid (palmitate) onto proteins. This reversible may affect regulation trafficking stability membranes. From multiple recent experimental studies, picture emerges whereby S-palmitoylation ubiquitous yet discrete molecular switch enabling expansion functions subcellular localization minutes to hours. Neural tissue particularly rich are regulated by S-palmitoylation. A surge novel methods detection at high resolution allowed us get better insights into roles palmitoylation brain pathophysiology. In this review, we specifically discuss work devoted understanding impact on functional changes excitatory inhibitory synapses associated with neuronal activity plasticity.
