Unsaturated biobased polyesters from bicyclic α‐pinene‐based diols

Polymer International, EarlyView.
We present the synthesis of four biosourced unsaturated polyesters made from chiral terpene‐based diols and esters of renewable diacids. The resulting materials harbor a bicyclic pinene ring in their backbones which leads to enhanced thermal properties while still conferring susceptibility to enzyme hydrolysis for chains having a cis alkene.

Divergent effects of itaconate isomers on Coxiella burnetii growth in macrophages and in axenic culture

Frontiers in Immunology
Aconitate decarboxylase-1 (ACOD1) is expressed by activated macrophages and generates itaconate that exerts anti-microbial and immunoregulatory effects.

Synthesis of Poly(Itaconate)s With High Monomer Conversion Applying Emulsion Polymerization

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1284-1296, 15 March 2025.
Itaconic acid and its derivatives are a promising and bio‐based substitute for oil‐based polymers such as acrylates. In this study, the optimization of polymerization of itaconic acid esters is described by applying emulsion polymerization leading to high reaction conversions and low residual monomer contents. ABSTRACT Itaconic acid and its derivatives

Inflammatory macrophage-derived itaconate inhibits DNA demethylase TET2 to prevent excessive osteoclast activation in rheumatoid arthritis

Bone Research
Itaconate, a macrophage-specific anti-inflammatory metabolite, has recently emerged as a critical regulator in rheumatoid arthritis pathogenesis. We found that itaconate is a TNF-α responsive metabolite significantly elevated in the serum and synovial ...

The potential of using itaconate as treatment for inflammation-related heart diseases

Tzu Chi Medical Journal, 2022
Intracellular metabolites can cause critical changes in biological functions. Itaconate is perhaps the most fascinating substance in macrophages. Lipopolysaccharide can activate aconitate decarboxylase 1 and induces the generation of itaconate from the ...

Sustainable Utilization and Fire Protection of Wood‐Based Composites in Buildings: Innovations, Challenges, and Future Directions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing use of wood and wood‐based composites in construction reflects a global shift toward renewable materials that support sustainable development objectives, including carbon reduction and responsible resource use. While wood offers substantial environmental benefits compared to conventional materials such as concrete and steel, its

Chemical Recycling as a Tool for Enabling a Second Life for Polyesters

SusMat, EarlyView.
This review presents the elucidation of the life cycle of main polyesters, detailing end‐of‐life methods, with focus of solvolysis technologies, then an analysis of LCA and TEA on literature data, an original data analytic, and, finally, a current industrial mapping of the main processes with a critical perspective on the plastic life‐cycle ecosystem ...

Pharmacological Modulation of Nrf2 Signaling Regulates Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Alveolar Bone Loss in Experimental Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Pharmacological activation of Nrf2 attenuated alveolar bone loss and protected periodontal tissues by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, preserving collagen organization, and favoring bone homeostasis. Reversal of these effects by Nrf2 inhibition further supports Nrf2 signaling as a promising therapeutic target in periodontitis.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Distinct Molecular Signatures Between Erosive and Non‐Erosive Oral Lichen Planus

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify molecular mechanisms distinguishing the erosive subtype of oral lichen planus (EOLP) from the non‐erosive subtype (NEOLP) through transcriptomic analysis. Methods We analysed bulk RNA‐seq data from 30 buccal mucosa samples (13 EOLP, 17 NEOLP) using differential expression, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA ...
