Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of acyl-CoA syntbetase long chain family member 4(ACSL4)in Sevoflurane(Sev)induced neuronal cell damage.Methods Human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were used as the research object,and control group(dimethyl sulfoxide,10 μmol/L),Sev group and Sev+iron death inhibitor Ferrostatin-1(Fer-1,10 μmol/L)group were set up.CCK-8 method was used to detect cell activity in each group.4.1%Sev exposed postoperative cognitive dysfunction model was constructed in vitro and divided into Ctrol group,Sev group,Sev+si-NC group,Sev+si-ACSL4 group,and Sev+si-ACSL4+compound C group according to the transfection category.The contents of Malonaldehyde(MDA),4-hydroxynonenal(4-HNE),Glutathione(GSH)and Fe2+in each group were detected by colorimetry.The level of reactive oxygen species was detected using a 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate(DCFH-DA)fluorescent probe.Real time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the mRNA expression of ACSL4,glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),and solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11).Protein immunoblotting was used to detect the expression of ACSL4,GPX4,adenosine 5'-monophosphate activated protein kinase(AMPK),phosphorylated(p)-AMPK,mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)and p-mTOR proteins.Results CCK-8 results showed that the cell viability of Sev group(0.41±0.11)was significantly lower than that of control group(0.98±0.07),and the cell viability of Sev+Fer-1 group(0.83±0.09)was significantly higher than that of Sev group(0.41±0.11),and the differences were statistically significant(t=7.572,5.118,all P<0.01).The levels of Fe2+,MDA,4-HNE,ROS and p-AMPK/AMPK ratios,as well as the mRNA and protein expression of ACSL4 in the Sev group cells,were higher than those in the Ctrol group(t=5.900,7.421,4.795,13.517,10.825,9.945,11.334),the GSH conten,p-mTOR/mTOR ratio,and mRNA and protein expression of SLC7A11 and GPX4 were lower than those in the Ctrol group(t=20.438,3.551,11.460,12.211,6.845,8.287),and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05)repectively.The levels of Fe2+,MDA,4-HNE,ROS,and p-AMPK/AMPK ratios,as well as the mRNA and protein expression of ACSL4 in the Sev+si-ACSL4 group,were lower than those in the Sev+si-NC group(t=3.818,3.164,3.054,4.465,13.088,7.918,9.737),the cell viability,GSH content,p-mTOR/mTOR ratio,and protein expression of SLC7A11 and GPX4 were higher than those in the Sev+si-NC group(t=2.912,7.248,7.574,20.092,5.915),and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05),respectively.The cell viability,GSH content,SLC7A11,and GPX4 protein expression in the Sev+si-ACSL4+compound C group were lower than those in the Sev+si-ACSL4 group(t=4.435,8.521,4.522,8.767),while the levels of Fe2+,MDA,4-HNE,and ROS were higher than those in the Sev+si-ACSL4 group(t=10.046,4.004,2.957,3.752),and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Conclusion Inhibiting ACSL4 expression attenuates Sev-induced iron death in SH-SY5Y cells by activating the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway.

Purpose: Effective predictors of the response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) are still insufficient. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of serum lipid profiles for the response to NAC in breast cancer patients. Methods: A total of 533 breast cancer patients who had received NAC were retrospectively studied. The pretreatment of serum lipids, including total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and lipoprotein-α, and clinicopathological characteristics were collected to assess their predictive roles. Results: Breast cancer patients had significantly lower TC, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C levels than normal individuals. Among these indicators, TG and LDL-C levels and HDL-C level increased and decreased significantly after NAC, respectively. In estrogen receptor (ER)-positive patients, increased LDL-C level was associated with better outcomes. Moreover, the receiver operating characteristic curve analyses suggested that TG and HDL-C levels at diagnosis can be used as predictors of the response to NAC only in the ER-positive subgroup.According to univariate analyses, patients with low TG level (< 1.155 mmol/L) or high HDL-C level (≥ 1.305 mmol/L) in the ER-positive subgroup had more favorable clinical responses than the other patients in the subgroup. Furthermore, according to multivariate analyses, a high HDL-C level (≥ 1.305 mmol/L, p = 0.007) was an independent predictor of NAC efficacy. Conclusion High HDL-C level (≥ 1.305 mmol/L) before NAC and increased LDL-C level after NAC were associated with the better treatment response in ER-positive breast cancer patients.These results are potentially considered beneficial in establishing treatment decisions.
