Epiberberine ameliorates MNNG-induced chronic atrophic gastritis by acting on the EGFR-IL33 axis.

Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a prevalent form of chronic gastritis that presents with chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa, localised gastric mucosal glandular atrophy and intestinal metaplasia. Despite the existence of diagnostic criteria, effective therapeutic strategies for this condition remain to be developed. The objective of this study was to examine the potential therapeutic benefits of epiberberine in mitigating MNNG-induced CAG and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Identification of cross-talk pathways and PANoptosis-related genes in periodontitis and Alzheimer's disease by bioinformatics analysis and machine learning.

Background And Objectives: Periodontitis (PD), a chronic inflammatory disease, is a serious threat to oral health and is one of the risk factors for Alzheimer's disease (AD). A growing body of evidence suggests that the two diseases are closely related. However, current studies have not provided a comprehensive understanding of the common genes and common mechanisms between PD and AD.

Cyberpharmacology uncover the mechanism of the total Rhizoma Coptidis extracts ameliorate chronic atrophic gastritis.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Characterized by inflammation of the gastric mucosa, atrophy of gastric gland cells, and intestinal metaplasia, Chronic Atrophic Gastritis (CAG) is a precancerous lesion disease. In traditional Chinese medicine, Rhizoma Coptidis (RC) is extensively used for treating gastrointestinal disorders, mainly because RC alkaloids-based extracts are the main active pharmaceutical ingredients. Total Rhizoma Coptidis extracts (TRCE) is a mixture of Rhizoma Coptidis extracts from Rhizoma Coptidis with alkaloids as the main components.

Surgical hip dislocation technique through the femoral head fovea fenestration and impaction bone grafting for the treatment of non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head: a retrospective study.

Background: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) often leads to the collapse of the femoral head, ultimately resulting in patients undergoing premature total hip arthroplasty (THA). The surgical hip dislocation (SHD) technique is a type of hip-preserving surgery aimed at delaying or avoiding THA. This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of SHD techniques through femoral head fovea fenestration and impaction bone grafting for the treatment of non-traumatic ONFH.

IL-33 Accelerates Chronic Atrophic Gastritis through AMPK-ULK1 Axis Mediated Autolysosomal Degradation of GKN1.

Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a complex disease characterized by atrophy and inflammation in gastric mucosal tissue, especially with high expression of interleukins. However, the interaction and mechanisms between interleukins and gastric mucosal epithelial cells in CAG remain largely elusive. Here, we elucidate that IL-33 stands out as the predominant inflammatory factor in CAG, and its expression is induced by and MNNG through the ROS-STAT3 signaling pathway.
