Objective: Neutrophils induce inflammation through the exocytosis of cytotoxic granule proteins. Recently, neutrophils have been reported to be an independent parameter associated with unfavorable outcomes after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, the mechanism by which neutrophils accumulate within the CSF after SAH remains undetermined.

Methods: Concentrations of C5a, epithelial neutrophil activating peptide 78 (ENA-78), interleukin-8 (IL-8), growth-regulated oncogene-α (GRO-α), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) were measured serially until day 14 in the CSF of 10 patients with SAH. CSF samples obtained from patients suffering from unruptured aneurysms were used as controls.

Results: The concentrations of C5a and ENA-78 were significantly increased on day 1, while those of IL-8 and GRO-α significantly increased during days 3-7 compared with those of the control samples. The levels of NGAL and MPO, components of neutrophil granules, significantly increased during days 1-5 and days 1-3, respectively, after SAH and gradually decreased thereafter. The correlations between ENA-78 and C5a on day 1, IL-8 and GRO-α on days 3-7, and NGAL and MPO on days 1-3 were significant.

Conclusion: These neutrophil chemoattractants might be serially involved in the infiltration of neutrophils into the CSF after SAH. Migrated neutrophils play an important role in inflammatory reactions in the central nervous system after SAH.

The immunoglobulin E (IgE) receptor FcεRI (Fc epsilon RI) plays a crucial role in allergic reactions. Recent studies have indicated that the interaction between FcεRIβ and the downstream protein phospholipase C beta 3 (PLCβ3) leads to the production of inflammatory cytokines. The aim of this study was to develop small molecules that inhibit the protein-protein interactions between FcεRIβ and PLCβ3 to treat allergic inflammation.

The family of heterodimeric CD11/CD18 integrins facilitate leukocyte adhesion and migration in a wide range of normal physiologic responses, as well as in the pathology of inflammatory diseases. Soluble CD18 (sCD18) is found mainly in complexes with hydrodynamic radii of 5 and 7.2 nm, suggesting a compositional difference.

Objective: We aimed to understand the potential therapeutic and anti-inflammatory effects of the phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor roflumilast in models of pulmonary infection caused by betacoronaviruses.

Methods: Mice were infected intranasally with murine hepatitis virus (MHV-3) or severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Roflumilast was given to MHV-3-infected mice therapeutically at doses of 1 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg, or prophylactically at 10 mg/kg.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer globally, with limited effective biomarkers and sensitive therapeutic targets. An increasing number of studies have highlighted the critical role of tumor microenvironment (TME) imbalances, particularly immune escape due to impaired chemokine-mediated trafficking, in tumorigenesis and progression. Notably, CC chemokines (CCLs) have been shown to either promote or inhibit angiogenesis, metastasis, and immune responses in tumors, thereby influencing cancer development and patient outcomes.

Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that can affect the many tissues of the joint. There are no officially recognized disease-modifying therapies for clinical use at this time probably due to a lack of complete comprehension of the pathogenesis of the disease. In recent years, emerging regenerative therapy and treatments with stem cells both undifferentiated and differentiated cells have gained much attention as they can efficiently promote tissue repair and regeneration.
