Aimed to enhance the anti-inflammatory activity of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), the oxadiazole derivatives were synthesized by substituting its ester group. The structure-activity relationships revealed that the electron-withdrawing group in the phenethyl moiety enhanced anti-inflammatory activity. The order of activity potency was F ≥ CF > Cl > NO > CN.

Background: Ureteral thermal injury (UTI) occurs when the ureter is exposed to high temperatures during surgical procedures, leading to tissue damage and ureteral stricture. Dexamethasone (DEX) has been widely used to treat a variety of diseases for its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant effects. However, its role in treating UTI remains unclear.

Progesterone plays a crucial and indispensable role in regulating immunity and attenuating inflammation. Nestorone (NES, segesterone acetate) is a steroidal progestin and a 19-norprogesterone derivative with no -CH group radical at the 6-position. Here, we showed that NES enhanced the viability of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated THP-1 cell-derived macrophages, potently inhibiting both arms of the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) signaling cascade triggered by LPS, especially the TLR-4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway.

Background: High altitude cerebral edema (HACE) is a condition where the central nervous system experiences severe impairment as a result of sudden oxygen deprivation at high elevations. At present, effective measures for preventing and treating this condition are still lacking. Eleutheroside B (EB), the primary natural active compound found in the , has demonstrated various biological functions.
