The relationship between B-cell lymphoma 2, interleukin-1β, interleukin-17, and interleukin-33 and the development of diabetic nephropathy

Basant Mahmoud et al.

Summary: The levels of Bcl-2, IL-1 beta, IL-17, and IL-33 were found to be associated with the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Understanding the molecular pathways of these biomarkers could lead to the development of therapeutic strategies.

Targeting HDAC6 attenuates nicotine-induced macrophage pyroptosis via NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway

Shuang Xu et al.

Summary: This study found that nicotine induces macrophage pyroptosis in atherosclerosis through the HDAC6/NF-kappa B/NLRP3 signaling pathway. These results suggest that nicotine promotes macrophage pyroptosis via this signaling pathway, which may contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms of nicotine in atherosclerosis.

NLRP3 inflammasome in cancer and metabolic diseases

Bhesh Raj Sharma et al.

Summary: The NLRP3 inflammasome plays diverse roles in cancer and metabolic diseases, being involved in the release of inflammatory cytokines and inflammatory cell death upon activation. While inflammatory cytokines contribute to chronic inflammation and disease pathogenesis, fine tuning NLRP3 activity is crucial for maintaining cellular health.

A Novel Bifunctional Fusion Protein, Vunakizumab-IL22, for Protection Against Pulmonary Immune Injury Caused by Influenza Virus

Lei Han et al.

Summary: The fusion protein vmab-mIL22, which incorporates IL-22 for pulmonary tissue recovery, demonstrates therapeutic effects in H1N1-infected mice by reducing lung index scores and edema, modulating cytokines, and downregulating fibrosis-related genes and pathways. This highlights a potential approach for treating influenza A virus infection by simultaneously targeting IL-17A and IL-22.

Epigenetic regulation of TXNIP-mediated oxidative stress and NLRP3 inflammasome activation contributes to SAHH inhibition-aggravated diabetic nephropathy

Xin Dai et al.

Summary: Inhibition of SAH hydrolase (SAHH) leads to activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, exacerbating diabetic nephropathy. The study revealed that SAHH inhibition can induce oxidative stress and NLRP3 inflammasome activation through TXNIP, impacting the progression of diabetic nephropathy.
