To clarify the mechanism of LCFA acquisition, we investigated fatty acid uptake by this fungus and identified the long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) gene FAA1 in three Malassezia spp.: M. globosa, M. pachydermatis, and M. sympodialis. These FAA1 genes could compensate for the double mutation of FAA1 and FAA4 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, suggesting that Malassezia Faa1 protein recognizes exogenous LCFAs. MgFaa1p and MpFaa1p utilized a medium-chain fatty acid, lauric acid (C12:0). Interestingly, the ACS inhibitor, triacsin C, affected the activity of the Malassezia Faa1 proteins but not that of S. cerevisiae. Triacsin C also reduced the growth of M. globosa, M. pachydermatis, and M. sympodialis. These results suggest that triacsin C and its derivatives are potential compounds for the development of new anti-Malassezia drugs. Keywords: Malassezia; acyl-CoA synthetase; fatty acid uptake 1.

  • Apolipoprotein O Is Mitochondrial and Promotes Lipotoxicity in Heart
    Apolipoprotein O is mitochondrial and promotes lipotoxicity in heart Annie Turkieh, … , Philippe Rouet, Fatima Smih J Clin Invest. 2014;124(5):2277-2286. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI74668. Research Article Cardiology Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a secondary complication of diabetes with an unclear etiology. Based on a functional genomic evaluation of obesity-associated cardiac gene expression, we previously identified and cloned the gene encoding apolipoprotein O (APOO), which is overexpressed in hearts from diabetic patients. Here, we generated APOO-Tg mice, transgenic mouse lines that expresses physiological levels of human APOO in heart tissue. APOO-Tg mice fed a high-fat diet exhibited depressed ventricular function with reduced fractional shortening and ejection fraction, and myocardial sections from APOO-Tg mice revealed mitochondrial degenerative changes. In vivo fluorescent labeling and subcellular fractionation revealed that APOO localizes with mitochondria. Furthermore, APOO enhanced mitochondrial uncoupling and respiration, both of which were reduced by deletion of the N-terminus and by targeted knockdown of APOO. Consequently, fatty acid metabolism and ROS production were enhanced, leading to increased AMPK phosphorylation and Ppara and Pgc1a expression. Finally, we demonstrated that the APOO-induced cascade of events generates a mitochondrial metabolic sink whereby accumulation of lipotoxic byproducts leads to lipoapoptosis, loss of cardiac cells, and cardiomyopathy, mimicking the diabetic heart–associated metabolic phenotypes.

However, other metabolic pathways involved in malignant progression, demand further understanding. Here we describe a metabolic acyl-CoA synthetase/ stearoyl- CoA desaturase ACSL/SCD network causing an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) program that promotes migration and invasion of colon cancer cells. The mesenchymal phenotype produced upon overexpression of these enzymes is reverted through reactivation of AMPK signaling. Furthermore, this network expression correlates with poorer clinical outcome of stage-II colon cancer patients.

    PRODUCT INFORMATION Triacsin C Item No. 10007448 CAS Registry No.: 76896-80-5 Formal Name: 2E,4E,7E-undecatrienal, nitrosohydrazone Synonyms: FR 900190, WS 1228A MF: C11H17N3O N N FW: 207.3 N O Purity: ≥95% H UV/Vis.: λmax: 301 nm Supplied as: A crystalline solid Storage: -20°C Stability: ≥2 years Item Origin: Bacterium/Streptomyces aureofaciens Information represents the product specifications. Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Triacsin C is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the triacsin C in the solvent of choice. Triacsin C is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol and DMSO, which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of triacsin C in these solvents is approximately 5 mg/ml. Description Triacsin C, originally isolated from Streptomyces sp., is an inhibitor of long fatty acid acyl-CoA synthetase 1 (IC50 = 6.3 μM in Raji cells). It has been shown to interfere with lipid metabolism by inhibiting the de novo synthesis of triglycerides, diglycerides, and cholesterol esters.2 It is also known to act as a hypotensive vasodilator, modulating endothelial nitric oxide synthase repalmitoylation by limiting palmitoyl CoA availability.3 Triacsin C can inhibit pancreatic β-cell function by suppressing the mobilization of intracellular calcium.4 References 1.

Inhibition of long chain acyl-CoA synthetase by triacsins caused inhibition of Raji cell proliferation.
