Seven undescribed compounds, dentipellinones A‒D (1, 2, 5, and 6), dentipellinol (3), methoxyerinaceolactone B (4), and erinaceolactomer A (7), were isolated from the culture broth of Dentipellis fragilis. Chemical structures of these isolated compounds were determined by analyses of 1D and 2D-NMR and MS data in comparison with data reported in the literature. Absolute configurations of 1‒7 were also determined by Electronic Circular Dichroism calculations. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects on NO production and pro-inflammatory cytokines levels in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. Compounds 5 and 7 were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory effects on NO production and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. They exhibited inhibitory effects on LPS-induced NO production in a dose-dependent manner, and significantly reduced the levels of inflammatory-related cytokines such as IL-1β and IL-6. TNF-α was not involved in the anti-inflammatory effects of these compounds. Finally, compounds 5 and 7 showed significant anti-inflammatory effects.

Background: Paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) is prevalent among patients receiving paclitaxel chemotherapy, which results in sensory abnormality as well as neuropathic pain. Conventional medications lack effectiveness on PIPN. Clinical trials identified beneficial effects of acupuncture on PIPN among patients receiving chemotherapy.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disease characterized by articular cartilage degradation. Persistent low-grade inflammation defines OA pathogenesis, with crucial involvement of pro-inflammatory M1-like macrophages. While mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) and their small extracellular vesicles (sEV) hold promise for OA treatment, achieving consistent clinical-grade sEV products remains a significant challenge.

Background: Paraquat (PQ) is a widely used pesticide, can cause severe intoxication and respiratory failure. Myrtenol (Mrl), an essential oil derived in various plants, exhibits several biological properties, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. This study aims to investigate the protective potential of Mrl against oxidative stress and inflammation caused by PQ exposure.

Background: Neuroimmune interaction is an underestimated mechanism for lung diseases, and cryoablation is a competitive advantageous technique than other non-pharmacologic interventions for peripheral nerve innervating the lung. However, a lack of cryodenervation model in laboratory rodents leads to the obscure mechanisms for techniques used in clinic.
Method: Herein, we developed a novel practical method for mouse peripheral nerve cryoablation, named visualized and simple cryodenervation (VSCD).

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease which afflicts about nearly 1% of global population. RA results in synovitis and cartilage/bone damage, even disability which aggravates the health burden. Many drugs are used to relieve RA, such as glucocorticoids (GCs), non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in the clinical treatment.
