Patterned hair loss (PHL) affects around 50% of the adult population worldwide. The negative impact that this condition exerts on people’s life quality has boosted the appearance of over-the-counter products endowed with hair-promoting activity. Nutraceuticals enriched in polyphenols have been recently shown to promote hair growth and counteract PHL. Malus pumila Miller cv. Annurca is an apple native to Southern Italy presenting one of the highest contents of Procyanidin B2. We have recently shown that oral consumption of Annurca polyphenolic extracts (AAE) stimulates hair growth, hair number, hair weight and keratin content in healthy human subjects. Despite its activity, the analysis of the molecular mechanism behind its hair promoting effect is still partially unclear. In this work we performed an unprecedented metabolite analysis of hair follicles (HFs) in mice topically treated with AAE. The metabolomic profile, based on a high-resolution mass spectrometry approach, revealed that AAE re-programs murine HF metabolism. AAE acts by inhibiting several NADPH dependent reactions. Glutaminolysis, pentose phosphate pathway, glutathione, citrulline and nucleotide synthesis are all halted in vivo by the treatment of HFs with AAE. On the contrary, mitochondrial respiration, β-oxidation and keratin production are stimulated by the treatment with AAE. The metabolic shift induced by AAE spares amino acids from being oxidized, ultimately keeping them available for keratin biosynthesis.

<b><i>Background:</i></b> Tumorigenesis is associated with deregulation of nutritional requirements, intermediary metabolites production, and microenvironment interactions. Unlike their normal cell counterparts, tumor cells rely on aerobic glycolysis, through the Warburg effect. <b><i>Summary:</i></b> The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is a major glucose metabolic shunt that is upregulated in cancer cells. The PPP comprises an oxidative and a nonoxidative phase and is essential for nucleotide synthesis of rapidly dividing cells. The PPP also generates nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, which is required for reductive metabolism and to counteract oxidative stress in tumor cells. This article reviews the regulation of the PPP and discusses inhibitors that target its main pathways. <b><i>Key Message:</i></b> Exploiting the metabolic vulnerability of the PPP offers potential novel therapeutic opportunities and improves patients’ response to cancer therapy.

Abstract A previous study by our research group showed that sirtuin5 (SIRT5), a member of the class III NAD＋-dependent deacetylase family, is highly expressed in colorectal cancer (CRC). The present study showed that deletion of SIRT5 induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis as a result of continuous and irreparable DNA damage in CRC cells, a consequence of the impaired production of ribose-5-phosphate (R5P) which is essential for nucleotide synthesis. Consistently, the cell cycle arrest and apoptosis induced by SIRT5 silencing could be reversed by supplementation with four nucleotides. Moreover, metabolic profiling revealed that silencing of SIRT5 could inhibit the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), which produces R5P, required for base ribosylation. Notably, SIRT5 activates transketolase (TKT), the key enzyme in the cellular non-oxidative PPP, by mediating its lysine demalonylation through the interaction between SIRT5 and TKT. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that TKT is essential for the SIRT5-induced malignant phenotypes of CRC, both in vivo and in vitro. These results therefore revealed that the increased lysine malonylation levels of TKT caused by silencing SIRT5 suppresses non-oxidative pentose phosphate metabolism, leading to a low-nucleotide pool. This in turn induces DNA damage in tumor cells and inhibits proliferation, suggesting that SIRT5 may serve as a potential anticancer target.
