Sphingolipids including ceramides are implicated in the pathogenesis of obesity and insulin resistance. Correspondingly, inhibition of pro-inflammatory and neurotoxic ceramide accumulation prevents obesity-mediated insulin resistance and cognitive impairment. Increasing evidence suggests the farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is involved in ceramide metabolism, as bile acid-FXR crosstalk controls ceramide levels along the gut-liver axis. We previously reported that FXR agonist xanthohumol (XN), the principal prenylated flavonoid in hops (Humulus lupulus), and its hydrogenated derivatives, α,β-dihydroxanthohumol (DXN) and tetrahydroxanthohumol (TXN), ameliorated obesity-mediated insulin resistance and cognitive impairment in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD). To better understand how the flavonoids improved both, we analyzed lipid and bile acid profiles in the liver, measured sphingolipid relative abundance in the hippocampus, and linked them to metabolic and neurocognitive performance. XN, DXN and TXN (30mg/kg BW/day) decreased ceramide content in liver and hippocampus; the latter was linked to improvements in spatial learning and memory. In addition, XN, DXN and TXN decreased hepatic cholesterol content by enhancing de novo synthesis of bile acids. These observations suggest that XN, DXN and TXN may alleviate obesity-induced metabolic and neurocognitive impairments by targeting the liver-brain axis.
