Inhibition of Kv1.3 channel restrains macrophage M2 polarization and ameliorates renal fibrosis via regulating STAT6 phosphorylation

Pharmacological Research
Macrophages play crucial roles in regulating both homeostatic and inflammatory responses, with classical activated (M1) and alternatively activated (M2) subsets defined by the surrounding micro-environment.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

PXR activation ameliorates hyperuricemic nephropathy via NRF2 signaling

Pharmacological Research
Long-term hyperuricemia (HUA) constitutes a major determinant of HUA-induced nephropathy (HN), yet current uricosuric drugs often exhibit limited efficacy and may pose a risk of kidney damage.

Tumor-associated Adipose Tissue Microenvironment Supports Tumor Progression

Zhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2018
The peritumoral adipose tissue makes an intricate crosstalk with tumor cells and also plays a key role in tumor proliferation, invasion and metastasis because it provides hormones, adipokines and fatty acids to tumor cells.

Bisarylureas Based on 1H-Pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine Scaffold as Novel Pan-RAF Inhibitors with Potent Anti-Proliferative Activities: Structure-Based Design, Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Molecular Modelling Studies

Molecules, 2017
RAF (Ras activating factor) kinases are important and attractive targets for cancer therapy. With the aim of discovering RAF inhibitors that bind to DFG-out inactive conformation created by the movement of Asp-Phe-Gly (DFG), we conducted structure-based ...
