Long-term implications of COVID-19 on bone health: pathophysiology and therapeutics
ConclusionCurrent evidence and reports indicate the direct relation between SARS-CoV-2 infection and bone health and thus warrant future research in this field. It would be imperative to assess the post-COVID-19 fracture risk of SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals by simultaneously monitoring them for bone metabolism/biochemical markers. Importantly, several emerging research suggest that dysbiosis of the gut microbiota —GM (established role in inflammatory bone loss conditions) is further involved in the severity of COVID-19 disease. In the present review, we thus also highlight the importance of dietary interventions inclu...

Type 2 alveolar epithelial cell-derived circulating extracellular vesicle-encapsulated surfactant protein C as a mediator of cardiac inflammation in COVID-19
AbstractAmong the countless endeavours made at elucidating the pathogenesis of COVID-19, those aimed at the histopathological alterations of type 2 alveolar epithelial cells (AT2) are of outstanding relevance to the field of lung physiology, as they are the building blocks of the pulmonary alveoli. A merit of high regenerative and proliferative capacity, exocytotic activity resulting in the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs) is particularly high in AT2 cells, especially in those infected with SARS-CoV-2. These AT2 cell-derived EVs, containing the genetic material of the virus, might enter the bloodstream and make thei...

Review: the role of GSDMD in sepsis
ConclusionCombined with the pathogenesis of sepsis, it is not difficult to find that pyroptosis plays a key role in bacterial inflammation and sepsis. Therefore, GSDMD inhibitors may be used as targeted drugs to treat sepsis by reducing the occurrence of pyroptosis. This review mainly discusses the key role of GSDMD in sepsis.

CD20+ T cells: an emerging T cell subset in human pathology
ConclusionThis review summarises the latest understanding of CD20+T cells, their presence in various diseases, their putative function and how they may be an ongoing target of CD20-depleting agents. Unfortunately, our understanding of these cells is still at its infancy and ongoing study in a wider range of pathologies is required. (Source: Inflammation Research)

STAT1-mediated induction of Ly6c-expressing macrophages are involved in the pathogenesis of an acute colitis model
ConclusionsTwo different types of Ly6c-expressing macrophages are induced in the inflamed tissues through the IFN- α/β-STAT1-mediated CCL2/CCR2 cascade and this is associated with the pathogenesis such as onset, exacerbation, and subsequent chronicity of acute colitis.
