Musclin Mitigates the Attachment of HUVECs to THP-1 Monocytes in Hyperlipidemic Conditions through PPAR α/HO-1-Mediated Attenuation of Inflammation
This study aimed to explore the impact of musclin on inflammatory responses and the interaction between endothelial cells and monocytes under hyperlipidemic conditions. The attachment levels of THP-1 monocytes on cultured HUVECs were examined. Inflammation and the expression of cell adhesion molecules were also evaluated. To explore the molecular mechanisms of musclin, PPAR α or heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) siRNA transfection was performed in HUVECs. The results revealed that treatment with recombinant musclin effectively suppressed the attachment of palmitate-induced HUVECs to THP-1 cells and reduced the expression of cell ad...

Ferritin was involved in interleukin-17A enhanced osteogenesis through autophagy activation
In conclusion, IL-17A induced ferritin expression in osteoblasts, which further enhanced osteogenic differentiation via autophagy activation. These findings may provide further insight into the role of IL-17A in osteoblast differentiation and demonstrate ferritin as a potential target in modulating alveolar bone homeostasis.PMID:37713787 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110916

Crosstalk between PD-L1 and Jak2-Stat3/ MAPK-AP1 signaling promotes oral cancer progression, invasion and therapy resistance
CONCLUSIONS: PD-L1 was regulated mainly by the Jak2-Stat3/ MAPK-AP1 pathway, and besides the routine immunological functions, it supports OSCC survival, invasion, and therapy resistance. PD-L1 can be used as an indicator of severity and can be targeted along with Jak2-Stat3/ MAPK-AP1 for a better outcome OSCC.PMID:37678027 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110894

ASIC1a-CMPK2-mediated M1 macrophage polarization exacerbates chondrocyte senescence in osteoarthritis through IL-18
CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate a novel pathogenic process that results in OA cartilage damage, in which M1 macrophage derived IL-18 induces articular chondrocytes senescence. Further, the ASIC1a-CMPK2 axis was shown to positively regulate M1 macrophage polarization. Hence, ASIC1a is a promising treatment target for M1 macrophage-mediated diseases, such as OA.PMID:37660594 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110878

Exosomal circRNA-001264 promotes AML immunosuppression through induction of M2-like macrophages and PD-L1 overexpression
Int Immunopharmacol. 2023 Aug 30;124(Pt A):110868. doi: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110868. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExosomes can help to effectively regulate the crosstalk between cancer cells and normal cells in the tumor microenvironment. They also regulate cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis by virtue of their cargo molecules. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) together with differential ultracentrifugation served for verifying the presence of exosomes. In vivo and in vitro assays served for determining the role of exosomal circ_001264. RNA pull-down and dual-luciferase reporter assays assisted in the classifica...

Therapeutic strategies and promising vaccine for hepatitis C virus infection
AbstractHepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is still a significant global health problem despite therapeutic advancements. Ribavirin and interferon therapy have been the sole available treatments for HCV infection for a number of years with low efficacy. Thus, currently, a number of therapeutic strategies are being used, including nanoparticles (NPs), micro-RNAs such as small interfering RNA (siRNA), RNAi-based gene silencing and antisense oligonucleotide-based microRNA-122, microRNA-155, and short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs), and immunotherapeutic approaches such as anti-programmed cell death 1(PD-1), monoclonal antibodies (mAb Â...

Equine β-defensin 1 regulates cytokine expression and phagocytosis in S. aureus-infected mouse monocyte macrophages via the Paxillin-FAK-PI3K pathway
In this study, we utilized a PI-3K inhibitor (PKI-402) to treat eBD-1 -treated S. aureus-infected macrophages in vitro. Our results revealed that PKI-402 decreased the expression of eBD-1-promoted TNF-α, IL-6, CXCL10, CD40, RANTES, and p65 mRNA. To further investigate the relationship between eBD-1 and phagocytosis, we examined the expression of paxillin and FcγRIII (CD16 receptor) using western blot and immunofluorescence techniques. Our findings demonstrated that eBD-1 enhanced CD16 and paxillin expression in S. aureus -infected macrophages. Considering the correlation between paxillin expression and focal adhesion kin...
