SGLT2 inhibitor canagliflozin alleviates vascular calcification through suppression of NLRP3 inflammasome
CONCLUSIONS: Our study for the first time demonstrates that CANA exerts a protective effect on vascular calcification at least partially via suppressing NLRP3 signaling pathway. Therefore, supplementation of CANA as well as inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome presents a potential therapy for vascular calcification.PMID:37523743 | DOI:10.1093/cvr/cvad119

Increased Circulating Angiopoietin-Like Protein 8 Levels Are Associated with Thoracic Aortic Dissection and Higher Inflammatory Conditions
ConclusionANGPTL8 is associated with TAD occurrence and development, which may involve pro-inflammatory effects on macrophages. ANGPTL8 combined with D-dimer and hs-CRP might be a useful clinical predictor of TAD.Trial RegistrationChiCTR-COC-17010792  http://www.chictr.org.cn/showproj.aspx?proj=18288
