In recent years, several new classes of therapies have been investigated with their potential for restoring or improving physical functioning in older adults. These have included Mas receptor agonists, regulators of mitophagy, skeletal muscle troponin activators, anti-inflammatory compounds, and targets of orphan nuclear receptors. The present article summarizes recent developments of the function-promoting effects of these exciting new compounds and shares relevant preclinical and clinical data related to their safety and efficacy. The development of novel compounds in this area is expanding and likely will need the advent of a new treatment paradigm for age-associated mobility loss and disability.

Unlabelled: Despite a deep understanding of Parkinson's disease (PD) and levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) pathogenesis, current therapies are insufficient to effectively manage the progressive nature of PD or halt LID. Growing hypotheses suggested the NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and orphan nuclear receptor-related 1 (Nurr1)/glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) coactivator-1α (PGC-1α)/sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) pathways as potential avenues for halting neuroinflammation and oxidative stress in PD.
Aims: This study investigated for the first time the neuroprotective effect of canagliflozin against PD and LID in rotenone-intoxicated rats, emphasizing the crosstalk among the NLRP3/caspase-1 cascade, PGC-1α/SIRT3 pathway, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)/beclin-1, and Nurr1/β-catenin/GSK-3β pathways as possible treatment strategies in PD and LID.
Retinoic Acid-Related Orphan Receptor Alpha May Regulate the State of Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Upregulating the Expression of BNIP3.

The hair, an exclusive keratinized dermal appendage in mammals, stands as a quintessential outcome of adaptive evolution, conferring resilience against adverse environmental conditions. The ontogenesis of the coat displays a pronounced rhythmic pattern, with hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) emerging as pivotal facilitators of hair follicle reconstitution. The retinoic acid-related orphan receptor alpha, a nuclear receptor with extensive involvement in the regulation of cellular physiological states, exerts its functions predominantly through the modulation of downstream target gene transcription.

In this study, we characterized the pharmacological profile of JTE-151 ((4S)-6-[(2-chloro-4-methylphenyl)amino]-4-{4-cyclopropyl-5-[cis-3-(2,2-dimethylpropyl)cyclobutyl]isoxazol-3yl}-6-oxohexanoic acid), which is a novel RORγ antagonist identified by our group. JTE-151 dissociated co-activator peptide from the human RORγ-ligand binding domain (LBD) and recruited co-repressor peptide into human RORγ-LBD, and potently inhibited the transcriptional activity of RORγ of human, mouse and rat.

Objective: The objective of this study was to explore the therapeutic effects of kaempferol (Kae) on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.
Methods: The collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model was established using collagen II to induce RA. Mice were treated with Kae at a dose of 25 or 50 mg/kg/day via gavage.
