Background: Inflammation is hypothesized to contribute to the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Resveratrol (RV) is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. The purpose of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of RV on local inflammatory markers and systemic endotoxin in patients with periodontitis.
Methods: A total of 160 patients with periodontitis were enrolled in this study. The selected patients were randomly divided into four groups and received placebo, high-dose (500 mg/d) of RV (HRV, n = 40), middle-dose (250 mg/d) of RV (middle dose RV (MRV), n = 40) and low-dose (125 mg/d) of RV (low dose RV (LRV), n = 40) with orally administration. All patients received an 8-week treatment. The periodontal status of patients with periodontitis was recorded by using clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding index (BI), oral hygiene index-simplified (OHI-S), and probing pocket depth (PPD). The levels of inflammatory markers in serum and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), and systemic levels of endotoxin were evaluated using high sensitivity enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay.
Results: Outcomes showed that symptoms of periodontitis determined by CAL, BI OHI-S and PPD were improved by RV compared to placebo. RV treatment decreased inflammatory markers in serum and GCF compared to placebo in patient with periodontitis. Systemic endotoxin declined more in the RV group than the placebo-treated group.
Conclusion: In conclusion, data in the current study indicate that RV is an efficient drug for the treatment of patients with periodontitis. The findings of the present study find that RV inhibits systemic local inflammatory markers and systemic endotoxin and suggest that 500 mg/d RV is the ideal dose for patients with periodontitis.

Background: Obese subjects undergoing weight loss often fear the Yoyo dieting effect, which involves regaining or even surpassing their initial weight. To date, our understanding of such long-term obesity and weight cycling effects is still limited and often based on only short-term murine weight gain and loss studies. This study aimed to investigate the long-term impacts of weight cycling on glycemic control and metabolic health, focusing on adipose tissue, liver, and hypothalamus.

Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has become the most common chronic liver disease worldwide. The pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) has been proposed as a biomarker for assessing immune status and inflammation. There is currently no evidence regarding the effect of PIV on the risk of MASLD.

During nasal polyp (NP) development, activated T cells differentiate into T helper (Th) 1, Th2, and Th17 cells. Additionally, regulatory T cells (Tregs) that have an immune suppressive function are involved in the pathophysiology of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with NP (CRSwNP). Tregs can act as effector cells that produce inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-17A.

Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major risk factor for liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Despite advances in understanding HBV-related liver diseases, effective therapeutic strategies remain limited. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) has been implicated in various inflammatory and fibrotic conditions, but its role in HBV-induced liver fibrosis has not been fully explored.

Background: Excessive fluoride exposure leads to increased oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, causing harmful effects on the metabolic organs in the human body. Betanin, a pigment obtained from beetroot, is seen to have powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. The study was conducted to determine the role of betanin in fluoride induced hepato-renal toxicity in Wistar rats.
