Callistephus chinensis Nees is an herbaceous plant in the Asteraceae family that has various traditional effects, especially in preventing liver disease. Callistephus A (CA) is a sesquiterpene compound with a rare 6/7 ring skeleton, which has been isolated only from the Callistephus chinensis Nees, but whether CA protects the liver is unknown. Immunological liver injury (ILI) is a common liver disease mediated by the immune system.

Background: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is an autoimmune disease accompanied by an autoimmune inflammatory response that often leads to severe liver damage. In addition, it may further lead to complications such as liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver failure. Dihydromyricetin (DHM) possesses various pharmacological properties, such as being anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial.

Wurmb is known to contain large amounts of polyphenols and flavonoids with antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. However, the biological and physiological functions of have not been scientifically investigated. Thus, we investigated the immunomodulatory effect of hot water extract (YSK-N) in mice using an immune compromised model established by forced swimming (FS).

Enzyme immobilization techniques are crucial for enhancing enzyme stability and catalytic efficiency. Traditional methods such as physical adsorption and simple covalent binding often fail to maintain enzyme activity and stability. In this study, an innovative multi-level immobilization strategy was proposed to achieve efficient targeted immobilization of nuclease P1 (NP1) by fine-tuning the surface microenvironment.

Background: As cell-free nanotherapeutics, extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-EVs) have shown potential therapeutic action against liver diseases. However, their effects on autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) are not yet well understood.
Methods And Results: In this study, we utilized a well-established concanavalin A (Con A)-induced fulminant hepatitis mouse model to investigate the effects of MSC-EVs on AIH.
