We used this phenomenon to understand the biological mechanisms putting us at risk,\u201d says senior author <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/zh\/scientist\/christian-metallo\/\">\u514b\u91cc\u65af\u8482\u5b89\u00b7\u6885\u5854\u6d1b<\/a>, professor and holder of the Daniel and Martina Lewis Chair at Salk. \u201cThere have been lots of studies investigating how trans fats drive cardiovascular risk, but it always comes back to cholesterol\u2014we wanted to take another look that omits cholesterol as a factor, and we found an enzyme and pathway relevant to cardiovascular disease that we can potentially target therapeutically.\u201d\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nWhen dietary fats enter the body through the foods we eat, they must be sorted and processed into compounds called lipids, such as triglycerides, phospholipids, cholesterol, or sphingolipids. Lipoproteins\u2014like the familiar HDL, LDL, and VLDL\u2014are used to transport these lipids through the blood. \r\n<\/p><p>\r\nSphingolipids have become useful biomarkers for diseases like ASCVD, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, obesity, diabetes, peripheral neuropathy, and neurodegeneration. However, it is unclear exactly how the incorporation of different dietary fats into sphingolipids leads to the development of ASCVD.\r\n<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_5151\"  class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/24_09_Metallo_CellMetabolism_final_02-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive wp-image-51013 size-col-md-5\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/24_09_Metallo_CellMetabolism_final_02-300x378.jpg\" alt=\"Compound lipid fluxes are depicted as rivers and waterfalls flowing down a human-shaped mountain, leading to distinct pools including liver- and heart-shaped lakes.

They wondered, could sphingolipids created in the liver influence the secretion of lipoproteins like VLDL into the bloodstream that, in excess, cause arterial blockages?\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nThe fate of dietary fat is often determined by the protein that metabolizes it, explains Metallo, so it was important for the Salk team to first explore the metabolic landscape that creates sphingolipids in the first place. They started their survey with a protein called SPT, which acts as a floodgate to regulate the synthesis of sphingolipids from fat molecules and amino acids (other cellular building blocks) like serine.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nThe team suspected that trans fats were being incorporated into sphingolipids by SPT, which, in turn, would promote the excess lipoprotein secretion into the bloodstream that causes ASCVD.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nTo test their theory, they compared the processing of two different fats, cis fats and trans fats. The difference between these two comes down to the placement of a hydrogen atom; cis fats, found in natural foods like fish or walnuts, have a kink in their structure caused by two side-by-side hydrogen atoms, whereas trans fats, found in processed foods like margarine or anything fried, have a straight-chain structure caused by two opposing hydrogen atoms. Importantly, the kink in cis fats means they cannot be tightly packed\u2014a positive feature for avoiding impenetrable clogs.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nThe researchers combined mouse model dietary manipulation with metabolic tracing, pharmacological interventions, and physiological analyses to answer their question\u2014what is the link between trans fats, sphingolipids, and ASCVD?\r\n<\/p><p>\r\n\"We found the incorporation of trans fats through SPT increased lipoprotein secretion from the liver, which then promoted the formation of atherosclerotic plaques,\u201d says first author Jivani Gengatharan, a postdoctoral researcher in Metallo\u2019s lab. \u201cThis highlights sphingolipid metabolism as a key node in the progression of cardiovascular disease driven by specific dietary fats.\u201d\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nStarting with cells in Petri dishes, the team looked at whether trans or cis fats were preferentially metabolized by SPT\u2014and it turns out that SPT preferred trans fats. Furthermore, SPT\u2019s bias for trans fats was causing downstream sphingolipid secretion that could go on to cause plaque formation.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nThen, they moved from Petri dishes to mice, and Gengatharan designed otherwise identical diets containing either high trans or high cis fats but little cholesterol, feeding them to mice for 16 weeks. In the end, they saw mice consuming a high trans fat diet were producing trans fat-derived sphingolipids that promoted the secretion of VLDL from the liver into the bloodstream. This, in turn, accelerated the buildup of atherosclerotic plaques and the development of fatty livers and insulin dysregulation. High cis fat diet mice, on the other hand, experienced shorter-term, less harmful effects like weight gain.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nTo probe these effects further, they inhibited SPT to see whether they could limit negative trans fat effects in mice, finding that reducing SPT activity did decrease trans fat-induced atherosclerosis. According to Metallo, these findings make this sphingolipid synthesis pathway through SPT a critical target for ASCVD therapeutics moving forward.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\n\u201cAs we get a better grasp on identifying and measuring these diverse circulating molecules in our bodies and how they\u2019re metabolized, we could make huge strides in personalizing medicine accordingly,\u201d says Metallo. \u201cFor now, I recommend everything in moderation\u2014we all have our own diets and genetics and predispositions. As we explore and understand those factors, we can improve our knowledge and expand treatment options in the future.\u201d \r\n<\/p><p>\r\nOne particular SPT subunit stood out to the researchers as the subject of future research, since the team suspects it is responsible for selectively spitting dangerous lipids out of the liver. With the spotlight on SPT, the team hopes to see new non-statin drug development plans for managing and preventing cardiovascular disease. \r\n<\/p><p>\r\nDespite the World Health Organization (WHO) announcing a plan to eliminate trans fats from food supplies by the end of 2023, nearly 4 billion people remain at risk in 2024 due to countries not abiding by WHO\u2019s best practices. The team hopes their work can make a difference in the lives of individuals still at risk.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nOther authors include Zoya Chih, Maureen Ruchhoeft, and Ethan Ashley of Salk; Michal Handzlik and Courtney Green of Salk and UC San Diego; Patrick Secrest and Philip Gordts of UC San Diego; and Martina Wallace of University College Dublin.\r\n<\/p><p>\r\nThe work was supported by the National Institutes of Health (R01CA234245), Aileen S.
