Several 5-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(aroylmethyl)thio-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. All compounds were evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity by determining their ability to provide protection against carregeenan-induced edema in rat paw. In addition, ulcerogenic activity was determined. The anti-inflammatory data scoring showed that compounds 5e, 5f and 5g, at the dose of 100 mg/kg, exhibited anti-inflammatory activity, which for compound 5f was comparable to that of the reference drug indometacin (CAS 53-86-1).

Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERs) is implicated in antitumor immunity. However, the exact role of ERs in mediating the effects of dendritic cells (DCs) is not unclear. In this study, we explored the role of exosomes derived from ER-stressed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells in the antitumor effects of DCs and the precise underlying mechanism.

Topotactic transformation is an emerging strategy for synthesizing materials with exotic functional properties. In this report, instead of producing new crystals with related structures, we exploited the topotactic transformation phenomenon to spontaneously produce compositionally diverse nanostructures on the transforming substrate. The surface of magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) is topotactically transformed into maghemite (γ-Fe2O3).

Ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation is a major physical factor that induces structural changes in human skin. The aim of this study was to determine whether the novel silent information regulator 1 (sirtuin 1 SIRT1) protein activator, penilumamide, exerted any protective effects against UVB-induced skin damage using human HaCaT keratinocytes as a model. Enzymatic assays were performed to determine the SIRT1-activating ability of penilumamide, which was compared with that of resveratrol, a potent natural product SIRT1 activator with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Aims: This phase I trial assessed the safety and potential efficacy of monthly 3 dose intravenous infusion of allogeneic bone marrow-derived clonal mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-cMSCs) in refractory rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients over 24 weeks.
Patients & Methods: Six patients with refractory RA received BM-cMSC infusions at one-month intervals over a 24-week period. Safety outcomes included adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs).
