Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a severe and progressive lung disorder with an average survival rate of 3 to 5 years. IPF presents a significant challenge in clinical management, necessitating novel therapeutic approaches. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have proven to be promising vehicles for targeted drug delivery to the lung tissues.

This study evaluates the protective effects of sinapic acid (SA), a polyphenolic compound with diverse biological activities, against ethanol-induced gastric ulcers in rats. A gastric ulcer model was established using ethanol (ETH), and the experimental groups received either omeprazole (OMEP, 20 mg/kg) or SA at doses of 20 mg/kg and 40 mg/kg via oral gavage for 14 days. Biochemical markers, including total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI), malondialdehyde (MDA), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, were assessed alongside proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), and IL-6) using ELISA.

Propiconazole is a triazole fungicide previously shown to induce triglyceride accumulation in human liver HepaRG cells, potentially via activation of the Pregnane X Receptor (PXR). However, whether propiconazole can disrupt hepatic and whole-body metabolism in vivo is currently unknown. Therefore, we aimed to examine the metabolic effects of propiconazole in the context of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), obesity, and insulin resistance.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) oxylipins regulate inflammation, and acute systemic inflammation can precipitate cognitive impairment. Females have more HDL and stronger immune responses than males, yet higher dementia risk. Little is known about sex differences in oxylipin responses to inflammatory stimuli and potential crosstalk between acute systemic inflammation and central oxylipin signaling in either sex.

Cerebral malaria (CM) is a fatal complication of Plasmodium falciparum infection. The biological and physiological links between CM, inflammation, and inflammasome, point to the complexity of its pathology. Resistance to available and affordable drugs, worsening economic crisis, and urgent need for integration of orthodox with traditional/alternative medicine, actualized the search for sustainable pharmacotherapy.
