Thiazolidinedione-dependent activation of sphingosine kinase 1 causes an anti-fibrotic effect in renal mesangial cells

open access: yes, 2012
PPARγ agonists [thiazolidinediones (TZDs)] are known to exert anti-fibrotic effects in the kidney. In addition, we previously demonstrated that sphingosine kinase 1 (SK-1) and intracellular sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), by reducing the expression of ...

Association Between the Root Canal Microbiome and Apical Lesion Size: An Observational Shotgun Metagenomic Study

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The aim was to characterize the taxonomic and functional composition of the microbiome involved in primary endodontic infections and to evaluate their association with the periapical lesion size using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. Methodology Samples from primary root canal infections diagnosed with apical periodontitis were analysed ...

Sphingosine-1-phosphate lyases as novel therapeutic targets in intracellular bacteria

open access: yes, 2016
A critical feature of the pathogenesis of B. pseudomallei is its ability to invade, survive and replicate in both phagocytic and non-phagocytic cells, hence a thorough understanding of this intracellular stage is essential in order to develop novel ...

Beyond the Kidney and Lung: Cutaneous and Mucosal Clues to Human Hantavirus Disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Rodent exposure and aerosolized excreta can lead to hantavirus infection with systemic endothelial injury and capillary leak, resulting in thrombocytopenia and syndromes such as HPS/HCPS and HFRS/NE. Early dermatologic and mucosal findings, including flushing, conjunctival injection, petechiae/purpura, and mucosal bleeding, may provide important clues ...

The Inhibition of Sphingosine Kinase Using Modified Variants of Zone 2 of Sphingosine Kinase Inhibitor 1

open access: yes, 2022
Sphingosine-1-phosphate is a bioactive lipid mediator that has been shown to play a critical role in cell migration, survival, and proliferation. It is phosphorylated from sphingosine, which has the opposite effect on cells.

Asian Pacific Association of Gastroenterology (APAGE) Clinical Practice Guidelines on the Use of Small Molecules and IL‐23 p19 Inhibitors in Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease

open access: yesJournal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are increasingly prevalent in the Asia Pacific region, necessitating updated, region‐specific guidance on advanced therapies. Targeted small molecule agents, such as filgotinib, tofacitinib, upadacitinib, etrasimod, and ozanimod; and the IL‐23 p19 inhibitors (guselkumab, mirikizumab ...
