Using ultracentrifugation and anion-exchange chromatography, we fractionated IDL into five increasingly electronegative subpopulations (I1-I5), analogous to LDL, VLDL, and HDL subclasses with high resolution. We then comprehensively characterized these overlooked remnants using TEM, electrophoresis, and exploratory LC-MS lipidomics.

Furthermore, electrophoretic protein fingerprinting suggested complex remodeling of the putative surface apolipoprotein cargo in highly electronegative particles. Exploratory lipidomic profiling indicated that I5 was enriched in lipid species associated with proatherogenic pathways, including triacylglycerides, lysophosphatidylcholines, and lysophosphatidylethanolamines, whereas I1 particles were enriched in structural phospholipids. These patterns highlight IDL's profound lipidomic heterogeneity. Similarities among V5, I5, and L5 strongly support a shared metabolic continuum, with I5 potentially representing an intermediate transition stage. Crucially, functional assays revealed that the electronegative I5 subfraction possessed potent cytotoxicity in endothelial and monocytic cell models compared to other lipoprotein subfractions and oxLDL, significantly reducing viability and increasing cell death.

The Gnpat knockout mouse model, characterized by total ether lipid deficiency, recapitulates key features of this disorder, including dense bilateral cataracts, microphthalmia, and infertility, but the specific contribution of different subclasses, particularly plasmalogens, remains elusive. The recent identification of the Peds1 gene allows dissecting the impact of selective plasmalogen deficiency with retention of plasmanyl lipids, another ether lipid subgroup. Here, we performed the first side-by-side comparison of Gnpat and Peds1 knockout in mice on a matched genetic background (C57BL/6 x CD1). Additionally, we assessed Peds1 knockout on a pure C57BL/6N genetic background. Plasmanyl lipids in Peds1 knockout mice were sufficient to prevent cataract formation on both genetic backgrounds, despite marked shifts in the ocular phospholipidome. Also, fertility and reproductive function were found to be preserved in Peds1 knockout mice. Our data demonstrate that plasmanyl lipids can partially protect against the severe phenotypes observed in mouse models of total ether lipid deficiency; notably, the ocular and reproductive phenotypes were plasmalogen-independent, indicating that loss of the vinyl ether double bond is not the key determinant of all symptoms in human and murine ether lipid deficiency and can at least partly be compensated by plasmanyl lipids.</p>","PeriodicalId":93898,"journal":{"name":"Biochimie","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148802937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated the neuroprotective effects of Eucalyptus citriodora essential oil (ECEO) on 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced toxicity in N2a neuroblastoma cells. GC-MS analysis showed that ECEO was dominated by oxygenated monoterpenes, mainly citronellal (60.7%), isopulegol (16%), and citronellol (5.7%). In silico analysis of these constituents showed favorable ADMET profiles, predicted blood-brain barrier permeability, and non-overlapping multitarget engagement across enzymes, GPCRs and nuclear receptors. At the cellular level, ECEO pretreatment significantly restored cell viability (86.7% of control), reduced LDH release, attenuated ROS and NO, and limited mitochondrial depolarization. Quantitative 2D-gel/MALDI-TOF/TOF proteomics identified 94 differentially abundant proteins, of which 20 showed validated PD-related associations (KEGG, Gene4PD, and DisGeNET databases). ECEO pretreatment modulated 12 of these proteins across mechanistically coherent pathways: (i) reversal of 6-OHDA-induced reprogramming of energy metabolism, by normalizing the glycolytic enzymes PKM and PGK1 and restoring the TCA enzyme SUCLG2; (ii) reinforcement of proteostasis through PSMB4 and PSMA3 induction, VCP upregulation and attenuation of ER stress marker HSPA5/BiP; (iii) preservation of mitochondrial and cytoskeletal integrity through PHB1 induction and bilateral TUBB5 restoration. Overall, our results suggest that ECEO exerts significant neuroprotective effects in a cellular PD model by coordinately modulating energy metabolism, proteostasis, antioxidant defense, and structural integrity.

Sphingomyelin (SM), a major outer-leaflet lipid, has long been considered a key partner of cholesterol (Chol) in the formation of ordered membrane domains. However, mammalian cells contain multiple SM species with distinct N-acyl chains, most predominantly C16:0, C24:0, and C24:1, whose structural differences can change membrane packing, Chol distribution, and interleaflet communication. Evidence from model membranes shows that C16:0 SM interacts strongly with Chol and promotes liquid-ordered domain formation. By contrast, C24:0 SM generates thicker, potentially interdigitated bilayers, supports ordered domains with altered Chol association, and may influence coupling between two leaflets. C24:1 SM combines a very-long acyl chain with unsaturation, weakening membrane packing and suppressing macroscopic phase separation in Chol-containing membranes. Asymmetric vesicle studies further indicate that C24 SM can affect Chol transbilayer partitioning, which could have consequences for Chol accessibility and homeostatic signaling. Cellular studies further indicate that remodeling SM species can alter glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein clustering, PM order, Chol-binding probe accessibility, and signaling proteins such as the insulin receptor. Together, current evidence supports a model in which SM species diversity tunes PM organization through coupled effects on lipid packing, Chol behavior, leaflet asymmetry, and protein function.

Emerging evidence highlights that brain PUFAs are metabolized in oxylipins, the bioactive oxidized PUFA metabolites known to regulate inflammatory processes. Recent data highlighted that both PUFA and oxylipin profiles are modulated in the brains of adult male mice by dietary PUFA content. However, little is known on the impact of maternal dietary n-3 PUFA intake during the perinatal period and the neurodevelopmental profile of brain fatty acids and associated oxylipins in mouse offspring, and whether these effects differ between sexes. To address this question, we first measured fatty acid levels in the placenta and embryonic brain of male and female mice at embryonic day (E)17.5 of mothers fed an n-3 PUFA-sufficient diet (based on canola oil, rich in the n-3 precursor alpha-linolenic acid) or an n-3 PUFA-deficient diet (based on sunflower oil, rich in the n-6 precursor linoleic acid) in n-3 PUFAs starting at E0. Then, fatty acids and oxylipins were measured at different post-natal stages, in the brain at postnatal day (P)0 and P7, and in the hippocampus at P14 and P21, in both male and female mouse offspring. Our results show that maternal n-3 PUFA dietary deficiency alters fatty acid profiles as early as E17.5 in both the placenta and the brain.
