Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating stroke type with high mortality and disability. Inflammatory response induced by macrophages/microglia (M/Ms) activation is one of the leading causes of brain damage after ICH. The anti-inflammatory effects of resveratrol (RSV) have already been evaluated in several models of central nervous system disease. Therefore, we designed the current study to assess the role of RSV in ICH and explore its downstream mechanism related to Sirt3. The autologous artery blood injection was administrated to create an ICH mouse model. M/Ms-specific Sirt3 knockout Sirt3; CX3CR1-Cre (Sirt3 cKO) mouse was used to evaluate the role of Sirt3 on RSV treatment. Neuronal function and hematoma volume were assessed to indicate brain damage. The pro-inflammatory marker (CD16) and cytokine (TNF) were measured to evaluate the inflammatory effects. Our results showed that RSV treatment alleviates neurological deficits, reduces cell death, and increases hematoma clearance on day 7 after ICH. In addition, RSV effectively suppressed CD16 M/Ms activation and decreased TNF release. In Sirt3 cKO mice, the protective effects of RSV were abolished, indicating the potential mechanism of RSV was partially due to Sirt3 signaling activation. Therefore, RSV could be a promising candidate and therapeutic agent for ICH and Sirt3 could be a potential target to inhibit inflammation.

Phenylketonuria is a genetic disorder characterized by high phenylalanine levels, the main toxic metabolite of the disease. Hyperphenylalaninemia can cause neurological impairment. In order to avoid this symptomatology, patients typically follow a phenylalanine-free diet supplemented with a synthetic formula that provides essential amino acids, including L-carnitine.

Introduction/objectives: Sjogren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic inflammatory and difficult-to-treat autoimmune disease. Timosaponin AIII (TAIII), a plant-derived steroidal saponin, effectively inhibits cell proliferation, induces apoptosis, and exhibits anti-inflammatory properties. This study explored the mechanisms of action of TAIII in SS treatment by studying gut microbiota and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) using fecal metabolomics.

Introduction: Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in inflammatory rheumatic diseases (RMDs) is gaining interest. However, there are unresolved questions about the best practices for implementing TDM effectively in clinical settings.
Objective: The primary objective of this study was to evaluate whether early TDM of adalimumab predicts drug survival at 52 weeks in patients with RMDs.

Emerging evidence highlights the significance of peripheral inflammation in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and suggests the gut as a viable therapeutic target. This study aimed to explore the neuroprotective effects of the probiotic formulation VSL#3 and its underlying mechanism in a PD mouse model induced by MPTP. Following MPTP administration, the striatal levels of dopamine and its metabolites, as along with the survival rate of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, were significantly reduced in PD mice.

Selenium is an essential element with various industrial and medical applications, hence the current considerable attention towards the genesis and utilization of SeNPs. SeNPs and other nanoparticles could be achieved via physical and chemical methods, but these methods would not only require expensive equipment and specific reagents but are also not always environment friendly. Biogenesis of SeNPs could therefore be considered as a less troublesome alternative, which opens an excellent window to the selenium and nanoparticles' world.
