Olopatadine hydrochloride (olopatadine) is an antiallergic drug with histamine H(1) receptor antagonistic activity. Recently, olopatadine has been shown to bind to S100A12 which is a member of the S100 family of calcium-binding proteins, and exerts multiple proinflammatory activities including chemotaxis for monocytes and neutrophils. In this study, we examined the possibility that the interaction of olopatadine with S100A12 inhibits the proinflammatory effects of S100A12. Pretreatment of olopatadine with S100A12 reduced migration of THP-1, a monocyte cell line, induced by S100A12 alone, but did not affect recombinant human regulated upon activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES)-induced migration. Amlexanox, which also binds to S100A12, inhibited the THP-1 migration induced by S100A12. However, ketotifen, another histamine H(1) receptor antagonist, had little effect on the activity of S100A12. These results suggest that olopatadine has a new mechanism of action, that is, suppression of the function of S100A12, in addition to histamine H(1) receptor antagonistic activity.

Pancreatic cancer liver metastasis is an important factor leading to dismal prognoses. The details of adaptive immune remodeling in liver metastasis, especially the role of neutrophils, remain elusive. Here, combined single-cell sequencing with spatial transcriptomics results revealed that liver metastases exhibit more aggressive transcriptional characteristics and higher levels of immunosuppression compared with the primary tumor.

Background: Heat stress (HS) can affect the physiology and metabolism of animals. HS-induced intestinal inflammation in pigs is a common disease, causing severe diarrhea, that can result in substantial economic losses to the pig industry, but the molecular mechanisms and pathogenicity of this disease are not fully understood. The objective of this study was to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and long noncoding RNAs (DELs) related to inflammation in the colon tissues of pigs under constant (1, 7, and 14 days) HS.

Article Synopsis
- Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that current treatments struggle to effectively manage, prompting research to identify new biomarkers and therapeutic targets using advanced genetic analysis techniques.
- The study utilized Mendelian randomization and single-cell analysis on large datasets to pinpoint 14 significant drug targets, classifying them into three tiers based on the strength of their association with periodontitis.
- Results indicated that certain targets showed varying levels of evidence, with some (like TEK and SPP1) posing potential side effects, and further analysis revealed specific enrichment of target genes in immune cells, suggesting their roles in the disease.

Article Synopsis
- Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a widespread chronic skin condition, but the link between metabolites and its development hasn't been fully understood yet.
- * This study investigates the genetic connections between metabolites and AD, focusing on how amino acid metabolites like N6-methyllysine influence the disease through the inflammatory protein S100A12.
- * Results showed that S100A12 is associated with various immune cells in AD-affected skin and is a key mediator between certain metabolites and the onset of AD.

Chloroquine (CQ) is widely used in the therapy against malarial, tumor and recently the COVID-19 pandemic, as a lysosomotropic agent to inhibit the endolysosomal trafficking in the autophagy pathway. We previously reported that CQ (20 μM, 36 h) could reprogram transcriptome, and impair multiple signaling pathways vital to porcine immature Sertoli cells (iSCs). However, whether CQ treatment could affect the metabolomic compositions of porcine iSCs remains unclear.
