Preclinical Evaluation of Berry Extracts as a Nutritional Intervention to Alleviate Myocardial Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury and Atherosclerosis Development

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the experimental design and the proposed mechanisms underlying the cardioprotective and anti‐atherosclerotic effects of Greek‐derived berry extracts. C57BL/6 mice with WD–induced MS and ApoE−/− mice with atherosclerosis received chronic supplementation with WMex or BBex.

Betulinic Acid Enema Alleviates Colitis by Targeting Vitamin D Receptor to Protect the Intestinal Mucosal Barrier and Modulate Mucosa‐Associated Microbiota

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon with limited effectiveness and safety of current drug therapies. Betulinic acid (BA) is a naturally occurring pentacyclic triterpenoid present in traditional Chinese medicines used clinically as retention enemas for UC, but its direct effects and mechanisms remain unclear ...

Microplastics and the Endocrine–Metabolic Interface: Novel Diagnostic Tools Targeting Thyroid–Adipose Axis

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) have been identified as major environmental contaminants that can affect organisms directly and act as carriers of particles and chemical additives, thereby aggravating endocrine networks that coordinate metabolic homeostasis.

Blubber Thickening Driven by UCP1 Inactivation: Insights from a Cetacean‐Like Transgenic Mouse Model

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
UCP1 inactivation of cetaceans in mice drives BAT whitening and iWAT hyperplasia, promoting fat accumulation for aquatic adaptation. Abstract Cetaceans possess thick blubber, a specialized adipose tissue essential for thermal insulation, a streamlined body form, energy storage, and buoyancy. However, the mechanisms that underpin this adaptation are not

Update on Non‐Biological and RNA‐Based Therapeutics in Chronic Inflammatory Diseases: Precision Medicine Through Small Molecules: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the last decades, critical advancements in research technology and knowledge on disease mechanisms steered therapeutic approaches for chronic inflammatory diseases towards unprecedented target specificity. For allergic and chronic lung diseases, biologic drugs pioneered this goal, acquiring on the way—through the clinical use of monoclonal ...

Serotonin Degradation and Lipid Metabolism Regulate Human Tc2 Cell Effector Functions

Allergy, EarlyView.
Human Tc2 cells exhibit a metabolically active phenotype characterized by enhanced glycolysis, mitochondrial respiration, and fatty acid uptake dependent on PPARγ. Alarmins strongly amplify IL‐5 and IL‐13 production in Tc2 cells, supporting a shared immunometabolic program across type 2 lymphocytes.

Differential Roles for IL‐4Rα and IL‐13Rα1 in Immune Cell Infiltration and Epithelial Remodeling in Experimental Eosinophilic Gastritis

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study described the development of an experimental model for eosinophilic gastritis (EoG). Experimental EoG recapitulates histopathological features of human disease. including foveolar elongation, fibrosis, eosinophilia, mastocytosis and shared transcriptional programs.

Infection control in the brain and the eye

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...
