Various 2,2,5,11-tetramethyl- and 2,2,5,6,11-pentamethyl-2,6-dihydropyrano[3,2-b]carbazole derivatives were synthesized by condensation of 3-methylbut-2-enal or 3-chloro-3-methylbut-1-yne with an appropriate hydroxycarbazole. These compounds associate the tricyclic system responsible for the intercalating properties of ellipticine related drugs, with the dimethylpyran pharmacophore of acronycine derivatives. The study of the biological properties of the new pyrano[3,2-b]carbazole derivatives was carried out in vitro on L1210 murine leukaemia cell line. The three (+/-)-cis-diol diesters 15, 16, and 18 were the most active compounds.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) represent new anticancer agents and have been used worldwide. However, ICI can potentially induce life-threatening severe cutaneous adverse reaction (SCAR), such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN), hindering continuous ICI therapy. We examine 6 cohorts including 25 ICI-induced SJS/TEN patients and conduct single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis, which shows overexpression of macrophage-derived CXCL10 that recruits CXCR3 cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) in blister cells from ICI-SJS/TEN skin lesions.

Fabricating complex hierarchical structures mimicking natural vessels and arteries is pivotal for addressing problems of cardiovascular diseases. Various fabrication strategies have been explored to achieve this goal, each contributing unique advantages and challenges to the development of functional vascular grafts. In this study, a three-layered tubular structure resembling vascular grafts was fabricated using biocompatible and biodegradable copolymers of poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) using advanced manufacturing techniques.

Long-term use of naproxen can lead to serious side effects. Inspired by the biological activity of cinnamic acid, a series of cinnamic acid derivatives containing naproxen were designed, synthesized and explored their anti-inflammatory activities and mechanism in vitro. Our results indicated that all of naproxen derivatives showed more significant inhibition against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide (NO) production and had lower degree of cytotoxicity than that of naproxen.

Background: The pleural cavity represents a unique immunological compartment that can mount inflammatory reactions during infections, after surgery and in chronic immunological diseases. The connection between systemic immune reactions in the blood and local immune reactions in pleural effusions remains unclear. This study provides the first comprehensive immunological characterization of paired blood and pleural effusion samples, utilizing combined cell and cytokine analyses in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
