Retinal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is a major cause of vision loss worldwide, with ferroptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation playing key roles in its pathogenesis. Currently, treatments targeting multiple aspects of this condition are limited. This study introduces a supramolecular nanoparticle combining the phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor crisaborole and the ferroptosis inhibitor deferoxamine to address these pathological processes.

Background: Oxidative stress is caused by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the depletion of free radical scavengers, which is closely related to ferroptosis in diseases. Quercetin, as a natural flavonoid compound, has been reported to have multiple pharmacological effects on the basis of its anti-oxidative and anti-ferroptotic activities. This study was designed to explore the specific mechanism of quercetin against ferroptosis induced by hydrogen peroxide (HO).

Rhodotorula toruloides, an oleaginous yeast known for its high lipid productivity, produces lipids with low very-long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) content. Meanwhile, the roles of enzymes, particularly the condensing enzymes, involved in VLCFA biosynthesis in R. toruloides remained unclear.

Acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), a versatile central metabolite, plays a critical role in various metabolic processes and protein acetylation. While its impact on tumor cell properties is well established, the connection between acetyl-CoA metabolism and immune evasion in tumors remains unclear. Here, we uncover a mechanism by which nucleo-cytosolic acetyl-CoA contributes to immune evasion through regulation of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1).

Bempedoic acid is a new drug that improves the control of cholesterol levels, either as monotherapy or in combination with existing lipid-lowering therapies, and shows clinical efficacy in cardiovascular disease patients. Thus, patients with comorbidities and under multiple therapies may be eligible for bempedoic acid, thus facing the potential problem of drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Bempedoic acid is a prodrug administered orally at a fixed daily dose of 180 mg.
