ABSTRACT Acute pancreatitis (AP) begins with pancreatic local inflammation, leading to the onset of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), followed by compensatory anti‐inflammatory response syndrome (CARS), which causes immune paralysis and higher mortality rate.

Methods and compositions relating to anthrax pathogenesis [PDF]
The structures of Edema Factor alone and Edema Factor bound to calmodulin without substrate has been crystallized and its structure determined by x-ray crystallography. Based upon these crystal structures, a method assaying for inhibitors of infection by

This study identifies the HDAC6/GATA4/HtrA1 axis as a critical driver of cellular senescence in the inner ear. GATA4 nuclear translocation, facilitated by HDAC6 downregulation, transcriptionally activates HtrA1, promoting hair cell senescence, SASP, and audio‐vestibular dysfunction in models of Ménière's disease and age‐related audio‐vestibular ...

Effect of Hydrostatic Factor on Ischemic Brain Edema
The development of ischemic cerebral edema was studied in terms of the intracranial hydrostatic factor. Adult mongrel cats underwent occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery via the transorbital approach to induce focal cerebral ischemia. Three hours after the arterial occlusion, hypertension was produced for 30 minutes. Based on the extent of the

Zinc Exposure Causes Disulfidptosis to Induce Miscarriage by Up‐Regulating GATA1/METTL1/SLC7A11 Axis
Zn exposure up‐regulates GATA1, promoting GATA1‐mediated METTL1 and SLC7A11 transcription. It also enhances METTL1‐mediated m7G modification on SLC7A11 mRNA, increasing SLC7A11 mRNA stability. Ultimately, Zn exposure up‐regulates SLC7A11 at both transcriptional and post‐transcriptional levels, causing disulfidptosis. Knockdown of murine Slc7a11, Gata1,

Identification of Rab11 as a target of edema factor and dominant-negative mutants of anthrax lethal factor [PDF]
Anthrax is a fatal disease caused by the spore-formulating bacterium, Bacillus anthracis. The potential for anthrax as a bioterrorist weapon raises concern, and is still common in the developing world.
