Acute cellular rejection (ACR) occurs in 10% of renal allograft recipients and is characterized by leukocyte infiltration as observed in needle biopsies. ACR onset is subject to several risk factors, including delayed graft function (DGF). As the impact of DGF on the etiology of ACR remains unclear, this study analyzed the association between presence of leukocyte subsets and ACR onset, in DCD kidney biopsies with extensive DGF following transplantation. Immunohistochemical analysis of protocol biopsies taken 10 days after kidney transplantation revealed that patients with high levels of renal CD163 macrophages have a decreased risk (OR = 0.021, P = 0.008) for ACR in the first 6 months after transplantation. In pre-transplant biopsies of a comparable DCD cohort, with >80% DGF, presence of donor CD163+ macrophages showed no effect on ACR risk. Therefore, leukocyte infiltrate present during the inflammatory response at the time of DGF may contain anti-inflammatory macrophages that exert a protective effect against ACR development.

Background: Chemotherapy drugs may lead to hepatic injury, which is considered one of the limitations of these drugs.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of quercetin (QUE) on M1/M2 macrophage polarization and hepatoprotective effect in cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced liver toxicity.

Methods: Twenty-four mice were divided into four groups (Control, QUE, CTX, CTX + QUE).

Division of Biomedical Convergence, College of Biomedical Science, Kangwon National University, Chuncheon-si, 24341, Republic of Korea.

Background: Pain reduction, immunomodulation, and cartilage repair are key therapeutic goals in osteoarthritis (OA) treatment. In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic effects of porcine cartilage acellularized matrix (pCAM) derived from naive tissue and compared it with the synthetic material polynucleotides (PN) for OA treatment.

Methods: pCAM was produced from porcine cartilage through physicochemical processing.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play crucial roles in development and progression of malignant diseases. Notably, CD163 TAMs likely perform specific pro-tumorigenic functions, suggesting that this subset may serve as both prognostic biomarkers and targets for future anti-cancer therapy. We conducted a scoping review to map the current knowledge on the prognostic role of CD163 TAMs in the five most lethal cancers worldwide: Lung, colorectal, gastric, liver, and breast cancer.

Sialoadhesin-dependent susceptibility and replication of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome viruses in CD163-expressing cells.

Understanding the molecular interactions between porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome viruses (PRRSVs) and host cells is crucial for developing effective strategies against PRRSV. CD163, predominantly expressed in porcine macrophages and monocytes, is a key receptor for PRRSV infection. CD169, also known as Sialoadhesin, has emerged as a potential receptor facilitating PRRSV internalization.

A serious challenge of the chronic administration of dexamethasone (DEX) is a delay in wound healing. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the potential of Tadalafil (TAD)-loaded proniosomal gel to accelerate the healing process of skin wounds in DEX-challenged rabbits. Skin wounds were induced in 48 rabbits of 4 groups (n = 12 per group) and skin wounds were treated by sterile saline (control), TAD-loaded proniosomal gel topically on skin wound, DEX-injected rabbits, and DEX+TAD-loaded proniosomal gel for 4 weeks.
