Elevated systemic immune inflammation level increases the risk of total and cause-specific mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease: a large multi-center longitudinal study
ConclusionElevated immune inflammation level on admission was an independent risk factor for all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality among CKD patients. Further research is needed to validate the predictive value of SII for mortality risk among CKD patients. (Source: Inflammation Research)

Activation of the STING pathway induces peripheral sensitization via neuroinflammation in a rat model of bone cancer pain
ConclusionWe provide evidence that STING pathway activation leads to neuroinflammation and peripheral sensitization. Pharmacological blockade of STING may be a promising novel strategy for preventing BCP. (Source: Inflammation Research)

Gastrointestinal consequences of lipopolysaccharide-induced lung inflammation
ConclusionsIntratracheal LPS administration induces inflammation in the ileum that is associated with enhanced expression of EpCAM, decreased claudin-4 expression and increased goblet cell density, these changes may contribute to systemic inflammation that is known to accompany many inflammatory diseases of the lung.

Cytokine storm: behind the scenes of the collateral circulation after acute myocardial infarction
AbstractAt least 17 million people die from acute myocardial infarction (AMI) every year, ranking it first among causes of death of human beings, and its incidence is gradually increasing. Typical characteristics of AMI include acute onset and poor prognosis. At present, there is no satisfactory treatment, but development of coronary collateral circulation (CCC) can be key to improving prognosis. Recent research indicates that the levels of cytokines, including those related to promoting inflammatory responses and angiogenesis, increase after the onset of AMI. In the early phase of AMI, cytokines play a vital role in induc...

Targeting ACE2 as a potential prophylactic strategy against COVID-19-induced exacerbation of chronic kidney disease
AbstractPatients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at higher risk for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Such patients are more likely to develop “COVID-19-induced acute kidney injury (AKI)”, which exacerbates the pre-existing CKD and increases the mortality rate of the patients. COVID-19-induced AKI is pathologically characterized by acute tubular necrosis and the interstitial infiltration of proinflammatory leukocytes. In our rat model with advanced CKD, immunohistochemistry for angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2) demonstrated their strong expression in th...

Immunosenescence of T cells: a key player in rheumatoid arthritis
AbstractIntroductionThe incidence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and its complications are expected to increase with age. Remarkably, RA patients were identified features of accelerated aging, particularly in immunosenescence. As is known, T cells in RA patients readily differentiate into pro-inflammatory phenotypes that maintain chronic and persistent inflammatory changes in joints and many other organ systems. Recent evidence suggests that T cells are most sensitive to aging, and aged CD4+ T cells contribute to inflammaging, which plays a crucial role in accelerating the disease process. In recent years, the molecular mech...
