Background: Sparsentan, a dual-acting antagonist for both the angiotensin II receptor type 1 and the endothelin receptor type A, has emerged as a promising therapeutic agent for the treatment of IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Following the publication of the PROTECT trial, sparsentan recently received approval for the treatment of IgAN in Europe. However, it remains uncertain whether an additive effect can be observed in the context of existing treatment with sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, given that the PROTECT study did not investigate this dual therapy approach.

Report of a Rare Case of Acute Abdominal Pain Post-partum: Spontaneous Ureteral Rupture.

Cureus

December 2024

Radiology, West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust, Bury St Edmunds, GBR.

Spontaneous ureteral rupture is a rare cause of acute abdominal pain, particularly unusual during pregnancy or the post-partum period. While pregnancy-related changes like ureteral compression and dilation may play a role, no definitive mechanisms have been established. Clinicians should suspect ureteric injury in post-partum patients with free pelvic fluid.

Natural flavonoid glycosides Chrysosplenosides I & A rejuvenate intestinal stem cell aging via activation of PPARγ signaling.

Life Med

June 2024

Laboratory of Stem cell and anti-Aging Research, Frontiers Science Center for Disease-related Molecular Network, State Key Laboratory of Respiratory Health and Multimorbidity and National Clinical Research Center for Geriatrics, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, China.

The decline in intestinal stem cell (ISC) function is a hallmark of aging, contributing to compromised intestinal regeneration and increased incidence of age-associated diseases. Novel therapeutic agents that can rejuvenate aged ISCs are of paramount importance for extending healthspan. Here, we report on the discovery of Chrysosplenosides I and A (CAs 1 & 2), flavonol glycosides from the Xizang medicinal plant Maxim.

Ferroptosis has been characterised by disruption of the cell membrane through iron-related lipid peroxidation. However, regulation of iron homeostasis in lung cancer cells that are resistant to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) remains unclear. Transcriptome analysis identified a significant downregulation of apoptosis-associated tyrosine kinase (AATK) mRNA expression in gefitinib-resistant PC9 (PC9-GR) cells, which were found to be more susceptible to ferroptosis inducers.

Background: Renal fibrosis is crucial in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) to end-stage renal failure. Geniposide, an iridoid glycoside, has shown therapeutic potential in acute kidney injury, diabetic nephropathy, and atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of geniposide in renal fibrosis and its underlying mechanisms.
