Characterization of the signal transduction cascade for inflammatory gene expression in fibroblasts with ATM-ATR deficiencies after Ionizing radiation
CONCLUSION: Enhanced micronuclei formation upon ATM, ATR, or MRE11 deficiency activated the cGAS/STING, RIG-I-MDA-5-IRF7-IL6 pathway, resulting in its downstream interferon stimulated gene expression following exposure to IR. Our study provides comprehensive information regarding the status of inflammation-related gene expression under DSB repair deficiency after IR. The generated dataset may be useful in developing functional biomarkers to accurately identify patients sensitive to radiotherapy.PMID:38438016 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2024.110198 (Source: Radiotherapy and Oncology : journal of the European Society for Therapeu...

Inhibition of spinal BRD4 alleviates pyroptosis and M1 microglia polarization via STING-IRF3 pathway in morphine-tolerant rats
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated for the first time that spinal BRD4 contributes to pyroptosis and switch of microglia polarization via STING-IRF3 signaling pathway during the development of morphine tolerance, which extend the understanding of the neuroinflammation mechanism of morphine tolerance and provide an alternative strategy for the precaution against of this medical condition.PMID:38432572 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176428 (Source: European Journal of Pharmacology)

Effect of resveratrol on herpesvirus encephalitis: Evidences for its mechanisms of action
CONCLUSION: Resveratrol acted as a non-classical HSP90β inhibitor, binding to the STING-HSP90β interaction site to promote STING degradation and attenuate HSV-1-induced encephalitis and neuroinflammation. These findings suggest the alternative strategy of targeting HSP90β and resveratrol-mediated inhibition of HSP90β as a potential antiviral approach.PMID:38430586 | DOI:10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155476 (Source: Herpes)
