The evidence of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) association with the immune response could be coherent with the immunological theory of endometriosis and suggests the possibility of a new research direction. The aim of the study was to evaluate the levels of PARP in plasma and peritoneal fluid of patients with and without endometriosis. It was a multicenter, cross-sectional study. Plasma and peritoneal fluid samples were collected from patients with and without endometriosis during planned laparoscopic procedures in eight clinical centers. In total, 84 samples of plasma and 84 samples of the peritoneal fluid were included in the final analyses. Double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed in order to assess levels of PARP in collected samples. No statistically significant differences regarding the detected levels of PARP in plasma and peritoneal fluid comparing patients with and without endometriosis were observed. Patients with a history of infertility had significantly higher plasma PARP concentrations ( = 0.04). We have not observed the potential role of PARP concentration levels in plasma nor peritoneal fluid as an endometriosis biomarker. We have determined an association between a higher plasma PARP concentration and a history of infertility.

5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is an amino acid essential for the synthesis of heme, which is important for various cellular functions, including the mitochondrial electron transport chain. We previously established heterozygous knockout mice (Alas1) for 5-ALA synthase 1 (ALAS1), the rate-limiting enzyme for 5-ALA synthesis, and reported that the mice developed non-obese insulin-resistant diabetes. In the present study, we used these mice to analyze the role of 5-ALA in the immune system.

Objective: To investigate the protective effect and possible mechanism of sulforaphane (SFN) on acute liver injury in mice induced by diquat (DQ) poisoning.
Methods: Forty-eight male C57BL/6 mice were divided into Control group, DQ model group (DQ group), SFN intervention group (DQ+SFN group), and SFN control group (SFN group) using a random number table method, with 12 mice in each group. Acute liver injury mice model was established by one-time intraperitoneal injection of 1 mL of 40 mg/kg DQ solution at once.
The effect of intraperitoneal LR-PRP on bacterial translocation in an experimental model of peritonitis in rats.

Background: This study aims to examine the effect of Leukocyte-Rich Platelet-Rich Plasma (LR-PRP) on bacterial translocation in an experimental peritonitis model in rats. Secondary peritonitis occurs due to the loss of integrity in the mucosal barrier of the gastrointestinal system, resulting from contamination of the peritoneal cavity by microorganisms. LR-PRP has been shown to have positive anti-infectious, immunomodulatory, and angiogenetic effects.

Objective: The efficacy of icodextrin versus glucose patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis remains unclear. The study was designed to compare the effects of once-daily long-dwell icodextrin versus glucose on markers of hypervolemia and survival among patients with kidney failure undergoing an unplanned initiation of automated peritoneal dialysis.
Methods: This was a randomized, non-blinded, and prospective controlled study.
Extending Amyloidosis Diagnosis: A Rare Case of Peritoneal AL Amyloidosis Revealed by 18F-FDG PET/CT and 99mTc-PYP SPECT/CT.

We present a case with systemic amyloidosis secondary to immunoglobulin light-chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis), which 18F-FDG PET/CT and 99mTc-PYP scintigraphy revealed amyloid deposition in the peritoneum, omentum, and mesentery. AL amyloidosis is characterized by the proliferation of clonal plasma cells and increased production and extracellular accumulation of immunoglobulin light chains, leading to organ malfunction. Even though AL amyloidosis can affect the gastrointestinal system, peritoneal involvement is rarely observed.
