Expression characteristics of dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 and hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α in acute kidney injury and preliminary study of the effect of dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 on HK‐2 cells

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a global health problem with significant long‐term harm if the prognosis is poor. Dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 (DUSP2) is involved in key regulatory pathways in several disease processes, but its function in renal pathophysiology is unclear.

Dietary Baicalin Supplementation Can Enhance the Growth Performance of Weaned Piglets and Maintain the Intestinal Barrier Integrity

Animal Research and One Health, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 261-277, August 2026.
This research innovatively illustrates baicalin’s multifaceted mechanisms in enhancing piglets’ intestinal health: modulating bile acid metabolism via probiotics, reinforcing tight junction proteins (ZO‐1/claudin), suppressing TLR4/NF‐κB‐mediated inflammation, whereas promoting growth and reducing diarrhea.

Network Pharmacology Combined With Metabonomics and Transcriptomics Reveals the Mechanism of Rubus Chingii Hu in Alleviating Nephrotoxicity Caused by Tripterygium Glycosides Tablet

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Flow chart of RCH to improve TGT‐induced nephrotoxicity. ABSTRACT Researches on Tripterygium glycosides tablets (TGT) often overlook renal toxicity from prolonged use. Rubus chingii Hu (RCH) is beneficial to kidney health and has an unclear role in reducing nephrotoxicity.

Polyphenols in Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) Seeds: Comparison of Profiles Among Five Cultivars and Evaluation of Anti‐Inflammatory, Analgesic Potentials

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Among the purified polyphenols derived from five cultivars of litchi seeds, the Heiye cultivar contained relatively higher phenolic contents. The litchi seed polyphenols exhibited anti‐inflammatory and analgesic potentials in vitro and in vivo, which were tightly associated with the major compounds including procyanidin A1, procyanidin A2, and ...

Metabolic Regulation of Macrophages in Health and Disease

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Extracellular metabolites drive metabolic rewiring of glucose, lipid, and amino acid pathways in macrophages, steering their polarization toward pro‐ or anti‐inflammatory phenotypes and shaping a wide range of disease processes. Macrophages from different tissues display distinct metabolic signatures, and therapeutic strategies that target these ...

The Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway Mediates the Antagonist Effect of L-Arginine On Renal Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Rats

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2017
Background/Aims: Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) is the most common cause of acute renal injury. I/R-induced oxidative stress is involved in the development of acute renal injury, which can be reversed by supplementation with L-arginine, a precursor of nitric

The Natural Quassinoid Brusatol Enhances Venetoclax Efficacy and Overcomes Resistance in Myeloid Leukemias

Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 8, Page 2274-2288, August 2026.
Schematic illustration of the mechanisms by which the natural quassinoid brusatol induces apoptosis in myeloid leukemias and enhances venetoclax efficacy via p53‐dependent apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction. ABSTRACT While venetoclax‐based combinations have shown promising results in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the remission duration is ...
