A4.4 Circulating Metastasis Promoting Protein S100A4 in Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies [PDF]
Background and Objectives Metastasis promoting protein S100A4 is involved in the pathogenesis of tumours and chronic autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriasis. We recently described increased expression of S100A4 in inflamed muscle tissue in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM).

ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Circulating Inflammatory Proteins Mediate the Causal Effect of Gut Microbiota on Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Bayesian and Mediated Mendelian Randomization. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), presents a global public health challenge. Although the relationships between gut microbiota, inflammatory proteins, and IBD are recognized, their causal associations and mediating roles remain unclear.

In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Abstract Background Coronary atherosclerosis is a leading cause of cardiovascular disease and death worldwide. Despite progress in understanding its pathogenesis, the roles of circulating inflammatory proteins and plasma metabolites are complex and not fully elucidated.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
