SIL-TAL1-Positive Adult T-ALL with t(11;14)(p15;q11.2): A Rare Case Report Highlighting Prognostic Challenges and Treatment Implications.

T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) with coexisting SIL-TAL1 fusion and t(11;14)(p15;q11.2) is exceedingly rare. There are limited data on the clinical course and outcomes of such patients.

Effect of Age, Sex and Season on Acute Myeloid Leukemia Clinical Characteristics: A Retrospective Study.

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a lethal malignancy of the bone marrow, characterized by rapid proliferation of immature myeloid cells, leading to insufficient hematopoiesis and immune activities. It is well known that AML is closely associated with various molecular and cytogenetic abnormalities. In addition, the long-standing view that non-genetic factors, including age, sex and season, are also associated with the occurrence and development of AML.

LXA4 protected mice from renal ischemia/reperfusion injury by promoting IRG1/Nrf2 and IRAK-M-TRAF6 signal pathways.

Excessive inflammatory response and increased oxidative stress play an essential role in the pathophysiology of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced acute kidney injury (IRI-AKI). Emerging evidence suggests that lipoxin A4 (LXA4), as an endogenous negative regulator in inflammation, can ameliorate several I/R injuries. However, the mechanisms and effects of LXA4 on IRI-AKI remain unknown.

Protectin D1 inhibits TLR4 signaling pathway to alleviate non-alcoholic steatohepatitis via upregulating IRAK-M.

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a prevalent metabolic disease, characterized by the hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, which is lack of effective treatment currently. Protectin D1 (PTD1), a lipid mediator from omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), has displayed wide pharmacological actions including anti-inflammation in a variety of diseases, but the role of PTD1 on NASH remains unclear. In this study, using the methionine and choline deficient (MCD) fed NASH model, we explored the effect and underlying mechanism of PTD1 on NASH in mice.

Sesamin Protects against APAP-Induced Acute Liver Injury by Inhibiting Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Response via Deactivation of HMGB1/TLR4/NFB Signal in Mice.

Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose would lead to liver toxicity and even acute liver failure in severe cases by triggering an inflammatory response and oxidative stress. Sesamin has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions in several animal disease models. In the present study, the effects and mechanisms of sesamin on APAP-induced acute liver injury (ALI) were explored.

Chrysin and its nanoliposome ameliorated non-alcoholic steatohepatitis via inhibiting TLR4 signalling pathway.

Objectives: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a chronic liver disease histologically characterized by liver steatosis, hepatocellular injury, inflammation and fibrosis, resulting in cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, but effective measures and obvious pathogenesis for NASH remain elusive. Chrysin (CH) has been reported to have anti-inflammatory effects but shows lower bioavailability.

Methods: In this study, a chrysin nanoliposome (CH-NL) was first prepared and characterized.

MFG-E8 Knockout Aggravated Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis by Promoting the Activation of TLR4/NF-B Signaling in Mice.

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the common liver disease characterized by hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis; there are no approved drugs to treat this disease because of incomplete understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms of NASH. Milk fat globule-epidermal growth factor-factor 8 (MFG-E8), a multifunctional glycoprotein, has shown anti-inflammation and antifibrosis. Here, MFG-E8 was shown to play a key role in NASH progression.

Paeoniflorin modulates oxidative stress, inflammation and hepatic stellate cells activation to alleviate CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis by upregulation of heme oxygenase-1 in mice.

Objectives: The role of Paeoniflorin on hepatic fibrosis and the specific mechanisms has not yet been elucidated. Therefore, we explored whether Paeoniflorin exerted protective effects on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced hepatic fibrosis and the underlying mechanisms.

Methods: A model of hepatic fibrosis was induced by intraperitoneally injecting with CCl4 (10% 5 μl/g) twice a week for 7 weeks.

Mangiferin Attenuates LPS/D-GalN-Induced Acute Liver Injury by Promoting HO-1 in Kupffer Cells.

Acute liver injury and its terminal phase, hepatic failure, trigger a series of complications, including hepatic encephalopathy, systematic inflammatory response syndrome, and multiorgan failure, with relatively high morbidity and mortality. Liver transplantation is the ultimate intervention, but the shortage of donor organs has limited clinical success. Mangiferin (MF), a xanthone glucoside, has been reported to have excellent anti-inflammatory efficacy.

A Tissue-Specific Rhythmic Recruitment Pattern of Leukocyte Subsets.

The circulating of leukocytes in the vasculature to reach various organs is a crucial step that allows them to perform their function. With a sequence of interaction with the endothelial cells, the leukocytes emigrate from the circulation either by firm attachment to vascular beds or by trafficking into the tissues. Recent findings reveal that the leukocyte recruitment shows time as well as tissue specificity depending on the cell type and homing location.

Baicalin and its nanoliposomes ameliorates nonalcoholic fatty liver disease via suppression of TLR4 signaling cascade in mice.

As a natural flavonoid compound, baicalin(BA)has been reported to exhibit hepatoprotective and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the characteristic of poor solubility and low bioavailability greatly limits its application. In addition, the effects and underlying mechanisms of BA in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remain elusive.

Glycyrrhetinic acid pretreatment attenuates liver ischemia/reperfusion injury via inhibiting TLR4 signaling cascade in mice.

Glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), the main bioactive substances of glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch, has been reported to exhibit hepatoprotective and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the effects and underlying mechanisms of GA in liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remain elusive. In this study, mice were pretreated with GA (100 mg/kg) three times a day by gavage prior to I/R injury, and then hepatic histopathological damages, biochemical parameters and inflammatory molecules were evaluated.

Geniposide protected hepatocytes from acetaminophen hepatotoxicity by down-regulating CYP 2E1 expression and inhibiting TLR 4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Acetaminophen (APAP) is a widely used over-the-counter drug for antipyretic and analgesic, but an overdose will induce acute liver injury. APAP hepatotoxicity has been the most common cause of acute liver failure in western countries with high morbidity and mortality. Geniposide (GP), an iridoid glycoside extracted from the fruit of Gardenia jasminoides, has been reported to exert a profound anti-inflammatory activity on acute and chronic diseases.

Paeonol alleviates CCl-induced liver fibrosis through suppression of hepatic stellate cells activation via inhibiting the TGF-β/Smad3 signaling.

Paeonol is a natural phenolic component isolated from the root bark of peony with multiple pharmacological activities. We investigated the anti-fibrotic effect and underlying mechanism of paeonol. Twenty-four male C57BL/6J mice were divided into 4 groups ( = 6 in each group), injected with CCl to induce liver fibrosis and administrated with paeonol according to the regimen.

Paeoniflorin protects against liver ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice via inhibiting HMGB1-TLR4 signaling pathway.

Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a major cause of high morbidity and mortality after liver resection, transplantation, and hemorrhagic shock. Paeoniflorin (PF), the main substance of glucosides in Radix Paeoniae Alba, has been widely used to treat various hepatic inflammatory diseases including I/R injury. However, the underlying mechanisms of PF on hepatic I/R injury remain further investigated.
