Objectives:We aimed to explore the potential role of omega-3 (ω-3) fatty acids on acne vulgaris by modulating gut microbiota.Materials and Methods:We randomly divided the untreated acne patients into two groups with or without ω-3 fatty acids intervention for 12 weeks. The Sprague Dawley (SD) rats with acne model were given isotretinoin, ω-3 fatty acids or their combination respectively. Then the colonic contents samples of the drug intervention SD rats were transferred to the pseudo sterile rats with acne model. The severity of the disease was assessed by the Global Acne Grading System (GAGS) score of the patients, and the swelling rate of auricle and the pathological section of the rat with acne model. The 16S rDNA gene sequencing was performed to detect the alteration of the gut microbiota.Results:ω-3 fatty acids could increase the diversity of the gut microbiota and regulate the flora structure positively both in the patients and rats, increase the abundance of butyric acid producing bacteria and GAGS score in the patients, and alleviate the inflammation and comedones of rats.Conclusion:Supplementation of ω-3 fatty acids could alleviate the inflammation of acne vulgaris by increasing the abundance of butyric acid producing bacteria.

Background: Acne vulgaris is a prevalent chronic inflammatory disorderof the skin and oral isotretinoin is one of the most effective treatments forsevere acne with incompletely understood mechanisms. The aim of thisstudy was to investigate the pathogenesis of acne and the therapeuticmechanisms underlying isotretinoin treatment from integrated human plasma metabolomics and proteomics.Methods: Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) full-spectrum metabolomics and four-dimensional data-independent acquisition (4D-DIA) quantitative proteomics were employed to analyze plasma samples from patients with group AG (severe acne group), group AG1 (severe acne group1, before isotretinoin treatment), group TG (isotretinoin treatment group) and group CG (control group). Bioinformatics statistical analysis were employed to analyze the metabolomic and proteomic data.Results: 489 differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) were detected in the plasma from patients with severe acne compared to controls. Isotretinoin treatment normalized the dysregulation of 94 metabolites, including inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4)P3), 11-cis-retinol, thyroxine (T4), androstenediol, estrone 3-sulfate, bovinicacid, n-oleoylethanolamine, LPS(20:1), Cer(d16:1/23:0) and TG(17:1 18:2 18:3). Additionally, 36 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in patients before and after isotretinoin treatment. Notably, downregulation of acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4) suggests a potential therapeutic mechanism for isotretinoin, while upregulation of monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2 (MOGAT2) may mediate the elevation of blood lipids and the correction of some abnormal lipids. Isotretinoin modulates multiple pathways, including inositol phosphatemetabolism, glycerolipid metabolism, thyroid hormone synthesis and insulin resistance.Conclusion: Important DEMs, DEPs and metabolic pathways were identified in this study, which will help clarify the pathogenesis of acneand the potential mechanisms of isotretinoin in the treatment of acne, andidentify novel targets for severe acne treatment and side effect reduction.
