Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) represents a major clinical challenge due to its tumor microenvironment, which exhibits immune-suppressive properties that facilitate cancer progression, metastasis, and therapy resistance. Interleukin 1 (IL-1) signaling has been implicated as a driver in this process. Mechanistically, both IL-1α and IL-1β bind to the IL-1 receptor type 1, forming a complex with IL-1-receptor accessory protein (IL1RAP), which triggers downstream signaling pathways.

Background: Calprotectin, a calcium-binding protein, plays a crucial role in inflammation and has been associated with various inflammatory diseases, including asthma. However, its regulation and impact on steroid hyporesponsiveness, especially in severe asthma, remain poorly understood.
Methods: This study investigated the regulation of calprotectin proteins (S100A8 and S100A9) by IL-17 and its role in steroid hyporesponsiveness using in vitro and in vivo models.

Background: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that can cause systemic inflammation in various organs. Rutin has been suggested to fight psoriasis, but the signaling pathways by which it works need to be explored.
Materials And Methods: HaCaT cells co-stimulated with interleukin (IL)-17, IL-22, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), IL-1α, and oncostatin M (M5) were used as an in vitro cell model of psoriasis.

Ischemic heart disease (IHD) remains a leading cause of mortalities worldwide, necessitating timely reperfusion to reduce acute mortality. Paradoxically, reperfusion can induce myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, which is primarily characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction. Translocator protein (TSPO) participates in multiple cellular events; however, its role in IHD, especially in the process of myocardial I/R injury, has not been well determined.

Objective: The present study aimed to observe and analyze the ocular movements induced by Coriolis stimulation (eccentric pitch while rotating: PWR) that induces Coriolis forces on the vestibular apparatus of healthy human individuals.
Methods: A total of 31 healthy subjects participated in the study. Eccentric PWR was performed on 27 subjects, by pitching the participants' heads forward and backward at an angle of 30° each on an axis parallel and 7 cm below inter-aural axis, at a frequency of 0.
