Butyrate ameliorates acute‐on‐chronic liver failure by regulating macrophage polarization
Multi‐omics profiling identifies progressive microbiota‐metabolism‐immunity axis dysfunction in acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF), characterized by gut dysbiosis, reduced butyrate production, intestinal barrier disruption, microbial translocation, and pro‐inflammatory macrophage polarization, thereby exacerbating hepatic inflammation and fibrosis ...

Epigenetic Regulation in the Pathogenesis of Renal Inflammation: Insights and Therapeutic Potentials
ABSTRACT Renal inflammation is a common pathological process in various kidney diseases, often initiated by factors such as toxins, ischemia, or autoimmune reactions. This inflammatory response can result in structural damage and a rapid decline in renal function.

This review highlights hepatocytes as active regulators of MASH fibrosis through secreted proteins, metabolites, and extracellular vesicles that modulate hepatic stellate cell activation. These hepatocyte–stellate cell communication pathways provide a mechanistic framework for developing targeted antifibrotic therapies, including hepatocyte‐directed ...

Macrophage‐derived S100 calcium‐binding protein A9 (S100A9) promotes the pathological progression of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). S100A9 upregulates the interaction between signal‐transducing adaptor protein 2 and leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2, thereby regulating mitochondria–endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contact.

Mixed lineage kinase 3 mediates SARS‐CoV‐2‐induced kidney injury via the Hsp70‐IL‐17A axis
Kidney samples from patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‑CoV‑2) showed upregulated expression and activity of Mixed Lineage Kinase (MLK3). Based on the mechanistic studies, we identified MLK3 as a critical player in promoting SARS‐CoV‐2‐induced kidney injury.

Bisphenol A and Its Analogs: Toxicity Analysis in Mouse and Rat Liver—A Review
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) and its analogs are widely recognized for their use in industry and plastic manufacturing. Consequently, humans and animals are continually exposed to various substances in their daily lives. This review evaluates the hepatic toxicity of BPA and its analogs in mice and rats, with particular emphasis on molecular mechanisms ...

Shikonin Promotes Apoptosis in Multiple Myeloma Cells Through the PKM2‐AMPK‐PGC1α Metabolic Axis
High PKM2 expression in MM is associated with a poor prognosis. Shikonin represents a promising PKM2‐targeted agent for MM therapy, offering a unique metabolic intervention strategy to improve drug resistance, bone disease, and the immune microenvironment. ABSTRACT Background Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable plasma malignancy.

Musashi-1 Drives Radioresistance and Stemness in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma via a Radioresistant FaDu Model. [PDF]
Fractionated irradiation generated radioresistant F‐IRR cells with enhanced CSC properties despite slower proliferation. MSI1 was strongly upregulated and functionally promoted stemness, tumorigenicity, and radiation resistance. JNK signaling acted upstream of MSI1, while JNK inhibition suppressed these malignant traits, identifying the JNK–MSI1 axis ...
